Sea Emperor

"Can you wait here?" Seadir asked. "The talk with my father might take a while."

"Wait for what?" Rain asked. 

"I think it would be better if he were to see and talk with you in person," Seadir replied. "I am not one of those he trusts the most, and he is a very direct man, so he doesn't listen much to others and prefers to decide things for himself after seeing them up close to avoid mistaken perspectives."

The sea emperor seemed like a pain in the ass, much like Rain in terms of attitude. In any case, Rain nodded even though he was in a hurry. 

In the end, Rain put some air inside the earth platform to make it float. When he finished that, he saw his friends showing expressions of tension and anxiety. That was weird, considering that there was nothing saying that they would have to fight the sea emperor.

"What is wrong?" Rain asked.
