every bait and switch was a work of art
Turning to Hadama, the goddess smiles her pleasure. He has been a good servant of the sea and a better king than the Mer have seen in decades. "I believe they will remain that way until the next time Caido and Rae decide to shake things about." She explains, offering him a small and apologetic shrug. "You may as well as how long anything will remain the way it is. But if you are wondering about the safety of the islands for those both above and below the sea, I think you will find them quite stable."
Looking to Jack, the goddess's smile turns a good deal more wry. 'What would you see become of Torchline?" She wonders, raising an eyebrow. "Would you see the Ark become a fleet? Would you see Torchline home to more smugglers? Would you see her become the most powerful jewel in all of Caido?"
Next she turns to Sah with a dazzling smile. "Let no one make the mistake of thinking that the ancients are like the ascended...they are not an enemy, but more like a distant ancestor. I have no doubt that some will leave the climb and seek other places to live, though Halo will prove quite inhospitable to them." Glancing toward Deimos as she says this, she continues. "You could make it so they are protected, but that is entirely up to you. The world is open to them as it always has been; avoiding one little snowy island should not be too much of a difficulty."
