Hadama had journeyed beside the boat in his manta form, extending his senses into the water for any signs of their prey. As the girls disembarked onto the sand of one of the shifting islands he shifted back to his mer form and pulled himself partway onto the beach to hear what Nova had planned.
Although perhaps 'plan' was not precisely the right word.
"They may use our voices--" he began to warn her, but the colorful sprite was already dashing off to find Adventure and the Tidebreaker subsided as he shared a look with Calypso, lifting one shoulder in an echo of her own shrug. There was amusement in his emerald eyes and he inclined his head in acknowledgment of her intention as she headed off in the opposite direction.
Which left the ocean itself for him.
Hadama slipped back into the shallows and returned to his manta form, wings rippling as he moved slowly along. The water was cold but his aquatic shape offered protection from the chill. He was large enough to give most echo sharks pause, but an entire pack might be enticed into attacking a lone ray, especially one so near to the shore.
