Considering Harper's words and finding them entirely too true, the mermanta took several long moments to turn several options over in his head before nodding slowly to himself. "Swim with me," Hadama invited, moving a little ways down the damaged canal towards where the Court still stood in the distance - though Harper would likely be walking, not swimming. "And we can help each other." If they would not help themselves this seemed to be the next best thing, was it not?
As he so often did, Hadama listened and nodded slowly in acknowledgment of his companion's experience and ideas.
"Agreed," he rumbled firmly. "And now there is reason to find a way to communicate between the Sea and your Court." When before the eve of War there had not truly been one. "It is time, perhaps, that my people had more contact with the land..." A difficult break from tradition, and one that didn't come easily even to one who had spent the past year dallying with the airbreathers as often as his own kind.
At the mention that Maeve was home and healing he nodded in quiet relief. "Please give her my thanks. And tell her: the sea heals many wounds. I will meet her there when she is ready to come down to it."
