And I hope the sun shines and it's a beautiful day
And something reminds you you wish you had stayed

Lena was right: it was all very intriguing, and Soh joined her friend in admiring some nearby scenery as she hummed through the bond in response. It was so interesting to see such foreign creations that looked so similar to things from the surface. Although they didn't have coral and anemones above the water, the gardens seemed to be arranged in a way that showed off the prettiest 'blooms' and surrounded each with background 'greenery' - just like a master gardener might back home. Soh wondered vaguely who tended these gardens, or if they maintained themselves better than bushes and flowers.

The thought to ask Hadama was a good one, and Soh instantly agreed. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to answer questions, she thought fondly. Hadama was a good friend, and a patient mermanta. He would surely humor any inquiries they might have after their escapades today.

You can plan for a change in the weather and time
But I never planned on you changing your mind
