Hadama shared Thalassa's concern for their white-haired friend, but he also shared her trust in Maea's strength and ability to take care of herself. The Ancient was powerful in her own right, whatever reservations she might hold about her powers and their source. He inclined his head deeply to her, part in acknowledgment of her leadership on their hunt and part in apology for leaving her to make the trek back alone. "You are welcome." His words were quiet but warm as he smiled at his friend. "Fewer Void creatures is its own reward."
Turning back to Thalassa he took her hand in his, folding his large fingers gently around the captain's work-roughened hand. "Do not let go until we are through," he murmured. It was, he hoped, an unnecessary warning, but it was best to be sure. He had never lost track of anyone during a teleport yet, but that was no reason to tempt fate. He drew her close to him before reaching for his magic, drawing down the moonlight to wrap around them. Emerald eyes remained on Maea until the light grew bright enough to obscure the shapes within it and then they were gone.
