Diving headlong into Underwater Cities sounded far better than other notions she’d been involved in lately, and it’d only taken snippets of moments thereafter to gather her things, then wait the appointed timeframe. Both companions had to be left to their own devices for the day, for she wouldn’t snag a dragon that breathed fire and a vampire gourd to drown beneath the waves – even if Hadama had mentioned something about being amidst the depths – she might’ve been distracted at the time.
It didn’t take her long to see him amidst the shallows though, and she pressed her bare feet into the usually warm sands, melding a little to its conformities as she laced and layered in long strides. “Hello!” came along a cheery wave moments thereafter, already beginning to knot her dress on the side, pulling out the manta crystal from her pockets, unaware she wouldn’t be needing it. “Thanks for inviting me. It’ll be nice to have such a swim!”
