What do you get when two ruthless assassins raise their daughter travelling through the wildest reaches of Caido? Take one look at Theea and you'll get a pretty good idea. Cheerful and tenacious in equal measure, and curious beyond all else, she began her journey on a mission to find those her mother once called family. And find them she did, soon rubbing elbows with demigods, leaders and even ghosts from the past. Her determination is resolute, her thirst for knowledge unmatched. We can't wait to see where her next adventure takes her!
Congratulations, Theea!

Ordinarily, Flora would have made some fuss or other about the impracticality of swimming down so far, but ain't no one got time for that; so instead she did her best to keep up with Melita and Jack. By the time the trio makes it down to the seafloor, it should be abundantly clear to all of them why a bubble-stream would be beneficial: that was a fucking far swim.
Anyway.
Hadama had said something about putting the opposite entrance on the outskirts of the marketplace, presumably so it would be out of the way but still easily accessible. And oh look at that, the merking had already left them supplies (>.>) how kind. Unable to speak despite being able to breath, Flora makes a series of gestures that roughly approximate GO TEAM and LETS DO THIS with varying levels of accuracy.
Okay! Let's try and wrap this up in 2 posts since we it's me, hi, I'm the problem it's me are holding up turning this in.

La Verbena | A personal skyboat (schooner) capable of travelling at 2x wagon speeds over most types of terrain. Can accommodate 2 people onboard during flight.
Eternally amused by anything sea related, the swim didn’t bother her at all. Enjoying the sights, the sounds, the feeling of water rampaging around them, and with no need to breathe, she could remain utterly content, the emboldened impulses of her mind calmed by the power and prestige of the sea.
She wasn’t wholly familiar with the aspects of the marketplace, for she’d toured only some portions of the city, her gaze roamed here and there, head tipped curiously towards any other mer passersby, before remembering they had something to do. Whipping her attention back to Flora, who was gesturing, the Honeybee blinked several times, then nodded, snagging at the supplies and lending her aid.

Neither bothered nor entranced by the water (this is Jack's everyday, after all, even if it's mostly on the surface of the Arclight), the captain makes good and quick use of his water manipulation to help propel himself along, though even he is in agreement that it's a pain in the ass to swim this far for this long.
When they finally reach the seabed and the outskirts of the Spiral Marketplace - a location he has never explored in great detail, but that he plans to now that it will be only a hop, skip and jump away - he lets himself sink to the sandy bottom (har har har) to examine the supplies. Vaguely interpreting Flora's gestures as I am the cheerleader and you are the muscle, Jack follows suit and lends his assistance to create the second entryway.
With water and air magic at his fingertips, he works to complete the more gravitationally-challenging parts of their construction. And if the merking doesn't like the aesthetics of what they've built, well, he should have been here to help.

Well, two posts might have seemed doable at one point in time, but now it seems ludicrous, so let’s just do this, shall we?
Down below the team runs into various snags, though it’s nothing that Jack’s sharp tongue and Melita’s firey presence can’t overcome. Supplies are bartered for, and quite to the surprise of everyone around, a gaggle of young Mer-folk take quite the liking to Melita and her red hair and pale complexion. Eager to try and impress her, they float about at her beck and call. This is quite convenient given that Hadama’s request that the entrance be “near the corner of the marketplace” wasn’t specific enough for the grouping of three to come to any real decision about where it should be. Thanks to the merfolk though, a location is found and construction is quickly underway.
Keen to keep the ocean floor tidy, even more merfolk arrive to lend hands and fins (and other aquatic appendages). Quickly the second entrance/exit is erected, and…well, I suppose that’s it?
Grinning and waggling her fingers (and toes) as if she were silently cheering on a deaf choir, Flora does her best to communicate her appreciation to all present.
Perhaps in an effort to speed their departure, a few merfolk call down some encantos to hasten Flora, Jack and Melita’s rise back to the surface.
