Disappointment that he would not be able to spend longer with his friend was something he could show, at least. Hadama tilted his head in acceptance of Thalassa's timeline but he did not bother to hide the regret in his eyes. "I am sorry to hear that. I would have liked to spend longer with you both." But perhaps they would, indeed, run into each other at Frey's Breath when they all made their way there.
He took a larger drink of his tea now that they had a destination and a reason to move more quickly, though he still did not precisely hurry. Speed was a vice the Tidebreaker was rarely accused of when lives were not actively at stake, and he took the time to savor the mouthful and swallow it down before he nodded reassuringly to Maea. "Indeed. I can set aside a few hours for this. It is important work." And he turned back to Thalassa with a tilt of his head. "And I will teleport you to the Grounds when we are done. So your crew does not become worried." It would be several days via airship to traverse between regions, otherwise. And it was a simple matter for him to use his magic to aid his friends when he could.
With a final swallow of his tea he inhaled the last of its delicate aroma and then allowed a soft sigh of contentment to escape. He stopped their server on the way past to deal with the check and then nodded to the Ancients. "Let us go."
