"..." The series of events that Flora suggested earned the rise of one(1) brow, but he did not contradict her. The 'how' was less important in the end than the 'how to keep it from happening again,' and he was content to pull the cart in silence while she mulled over their options.
"Mmh. But how do we tell who is infected?" A ban would be a grand gesture, but ultimately a useless one with no easy means to enforce it. "You or I cannot sit at the docks and the Port every day, checking every visitor to our shores. Even if we had an item to do so." To say nothing of the smugglers and pirates - fewer of those these days - who dropped anchor in any one of the coast's half-hidden coves or amid the Kuali'i Isles to sneak into Haulani. "I do not have an easy answer for this," he admitted, a frown pulling at the corners of his mouth. "But I find it difficult to believe that Everest is the only one infected by now."
The frown lifted almost immediately as Flora moved to assist with the cart. Hadama inclined his head in gratitude, a murmured "Thank you," rumbling from his chest. The cart did, indeed, begin to move faster with Flora's help, though they had to pause every few steps to toss out a rock around the perimeter of the Miana Pool.
The cart was nearly empty, at least, and the end of the coast was in sight.
Hadama keeps on keeping on and talks politics with his co-ruler while they drop safety rocks!
