He might empathize, but there was little he could do to lift some of the weight from Remi's shoulders. Hadama might have been a King, but in games of gods he was still a piece on the board with little value as yet.

His cup was decidedly milder than Remi's thanks to the generous dollop of milk that was added alongside his chosen bag of tea, and he stirred it slowly as he waited for it to steep.

A lucky coincidence." Emerald eyes sparkled in his serene face. "There is talk in the Underwater City. Conjecture. On whether the kraken in the Maw is perhaps not a 'daddy' after all. Or if it is instead a, hm, a 'Big Mommy Kraken.'" Each word was spoken with slow, careful precision and due gravitas belied only by the subtle thread of humor in the Attuned bond as he shared the rumors of possible baby krakens in the region.
