[ Well-aware that there are many who would advise trying to bring in gods they barely understand into this mess, Himeka feels emboldened by her last request. Sure, it may have ended up beaching several unique marine species on shores across the realm, but it had proved that the gods could and would listen if given reason to.
It makes her think back to the first she had managed to make contact with nearly a year ago--Vimorskas. God of a forgotten shrine deep in the woods, who had rustled its leaves in acknowledgement of their gifts and whispered quietly to her heart. Mayhaps if there was a deity who was fond of the Summoned, they would lend their help.
