What do we hope to get from the Belmont? Is stealth needed? If we want to treat with them, I can send a message by air. They’ll likely shoot it down, but if the letter’s in a flame-proofed bag, it will probably survive.
If we want to take the ship, we need to lure it out into open water. Make him come to us, rather than walking in to that death trap.
[He traces a finger along the treacherous shallows and reefs on the map.]
If it is integral to make our way there in stealth, I could probably forge something that could clear a path, but I’m loath to do that. The reefs are a delicate ecosystem and house some truly fascinating species.
[Hector’s priorities: he will make peace or war with the last of the Belmonts without qualm, but when it comes to destruction of wildlife, he hesitates.]
