Though he would have welcomed Maeve at his side for this petition, her life was busy enough with wedding planning and searching for her missing son.
And besides, though this request would benefit both humans and Mer, it primarily involved the ocean and Hadama couldn’t help but feel a deep connection to it. That was why he had sought out the underwater shrine to make his prayer, coming in the twilight hour after sunset when the stars were newly risen in the sky and the plankton in the water glowed their brightest.
His offering was a bracelet of seed pearls and obsidian woven through a silver filigree, bringing land and sea together in harmony. He used his magic to sweep the sand from the altar, smoothing a broad hand over the rough stone fondly before setting the bracelet in its center and bowing his head to his chosen goddess and the divine patron of Torchline.
Safrin. I ask your help to bring the humans and Mer closer. To make the travel between our people swifter and easier for us both. We would speed the journey to and from Haulani and the Underwater City, with your blessing. His words were slow and respectful, and there was a small but resilient seed of hope for the future in his prayer.
