"He didn't." And Chrys shrugged. "I don't really understand why everyone is so against people visiting though. They're interesting. And it's not like many would come over anyway. What bad are they gonna do? It's not like they'd be interested in moving into our city anyway."
As Chrys watched Hadama blow air into the squid, she didn't say anything. However, her face clearly showed that she wasn't excited at the thought of repeating what he had done. Still, she had said it, and she certainly wouldn't back down now. Once he had given her the second piece of sinew, she took a deep breath, and then she blew air into the buoyancy chamber of the squid. Face contorted to a badly hidden grimace, she quickly tied the opening with her piece of sinew before rinsing her mouth in the ocean as well.
Looking back and forth between Hadama and the now-filled squid, she said: "I think I prefer the ways humans make lanterns."
