The water so black that the darkness hummed
Her explanation is granted a raise of dark, expressive brows, an acceptance of her clarification and a disappearance of the minor furrow that had gathered between them. He nods his head in gratitude for it, too sparse with words to say them aloud across the bond. Maru is accustomed to them feeling his appreciation across the link at the very least, and it will be apparent to her even in her unaccustomed manner.
Delta's response is far off the mark from what he had anticipated, and he tilts his head to regard her with a look that is both subdued on behalf of their guest, and baffled at the animosity that seems to linger beneath his daughter's connection to him. It seems for all her attempts to hide it, Wessex spots it as well. So long as your intentions are pure, we welcome adventurers of all races and allegiances. It is said to the pair at large, though he tucks away Delta's inquisition to ask about in private. Clearly he has missed something, and while he won't correct or discipline her - will let her make her mistakes, as he had when he was at his mother's side and learning diplomacy - he is curious how she will respond to Wessex's question. We are incapable of leaving our waters, but we can easily be contacted from the shore in the future if you would like a conference instead of adventure. She is more than welcome to ask more questions now of course, but he will extend the offer of dialogue and conversation for future days as well.
