As Lucien makes clear his relationship with the Naga Queen and Princess, shocking Claire and the Mermaids, he also receives a mental message from Mira.
'It's done...' She reports and then pauses before completing the sentence in a slightly shy but very proud tone. 'Hubby.'
'Come on to meet your sister-in-law.' He responds.
'Alright.' She breaks the huge green barrier, drawing the attention of the Mermaids.
They've barely recovered from the shock due to everything they've learned about Lucien, and yet, they get surprised again when they see hundreds of Naga bodies falling behind the barrier.
[What?!?!] They don't understand why the Naga Blackguards who arrived along with Lucien and Mira would kill other Nagas.
Mira and Kamala swim towards Lucien, passing through a Mermaids corridor and leaving the Blackguards and half of the Nagas troops who were defending that outpost behind.
