As the others made trip after trip to retrieve water from the Fountain in the court, Hadama swam along the shores of the island and the coast, using the wand that Ray had left behind to offer healing of more minor wounds so that the doctors could focus their efforts on those seriously injured in the tidal waves that had resulted from the falling moon. As more able-bodied people arrived to help with the increasing number of wounded, he was able to organize less and focus more on the use of his magic, grim but determined to carry on no less than anyone else.
It was a long and difficult day for those who came to the rescue of the coast. Tireless efforts on the part of residents and visitors alike saved many who would otherwise have died. Whether it was digging survivors from the wreckage or administering healing waters to those in need, Edmund, Sohalia, Melita and Hadama earned a place in Torchline's history for their work that day.
It wasn't until much later that the mermanta would have time to see the violet slashes in the sky, or to hear the first reports of the new fauna that had begun to appear among the islands. During that first day there was only the work of saving lives until the remaining torches sprang to life amidst the deepening dark and he looked up to find the influx slowing. "Thank you," he rumbled wearily to his fellow rescuers. "There will be more days of this ahead. And even more of rebuilding. For now, take care of yourselves. Rest, please. Eat if you can. And stay safe."
This concludes the PQ. Thank you for participating in Torchline's rescue efforts!
