The whiskey was accepted with a nod of thanks and Hadama stood and sipped at the vintage as Jack offered some ideas of his own. The mention of a weapon had him giving a contemplative tilt of his head. Deimos answered first, speaking in many ways for both of them as to their priorities of past seasons and the Tidebreaker nodded confirmation of what the Resurrected Sword listed. Not the springs for Torchline, but the barriers against void encroachment, yes. And in all the seasons since no monster had forced itself into their waters or upon their shores.
But other regions had come under fire in exchange.
"I thought that the flowers were the weapon that we were planting on the island," he rumbled first. "They weaken the Family. Prevent the Void from entering their cleansed areas." The gods had so far given no indication that they could create anything more powerful. If Roses made by Vi or Lillies blessed by Rae could not fully cleanse the island moon, Hadama could not imagine the gods creating anything significantly more destructive to the Void. Vi in particular had made his disapproval of the violet invaders plain, and if it had been within His power to inflict greater damage upon them, it was Hadama's opinion that He would have made his desires clear.
But not even the Gods were a match for what gestated within Starfall. Safrin's near destruction at the Void's hands was ample proof of that.
Which did not mean that Hadama intended to give up. As with the War of the Voice, what the gods could not accomplish alone might yet be done by mortal hands.
"I have discussed a method of blocking... eavesdroppers... with Safrin before," he admitted slowly. "Torchline has focused on physical protection since Starfall. But yes, it can be done. I was told that if a piece of a Family member could be obtained, that it could be used to physically keep out the Family." His brow furrowed faintly as he cast his memory back to that meeting at the altar in the Barrows. "But not their Voice. The only way to prevent the... static... would be a piece of the static's source."
