They were close.
The concerns of Flora and others that they should pivot to some new project had not gone unheard, and Hadama was well aware of the absurdity of focusing on rum in a time of increasing strangeness and trouble across the world, but at the same time they were so near to their goal that it seemed even more damaging to give up now. The Port brought travelers from across Caido to their doorstep, and a little luck could go a long way to keeping their land safe, if undertaken with other measures.
So the King swam in the choppy waters of the canal, tail moving slowly to keep him in place as he waited for his friends and citizens to gather and voice their opinion on what flavor of rum would be best. The Flowerbirth sky was blue, the waves were lively, and the sea birds called brightly overhead. Next to Hadama was a large green vase, and three piles of colored stones from the Rainbow Road. Votes could either be cast publicly or privately, depending on preference.
When it seemed as though enough people had gathered to make it a fair vote, the Tidebreaker raised his voice.
"If you want white rum, cast a white stone," he rumbled. "Dark rum is a black stone. Spiced rum is a red stone. If you want to advocate for your preference, now is your chance."
So saying, he yielded the floor to any who wished to sway the opinions of their fellows as the voting began.
This is an ME to decide what type of rum will flow in the Luck Fountain in Kaiholo Port. Anyone is welcome to participate, but only Torchers can vote. This thread will close in one week, or whenever a clear winner is determined!
