I don't know how I missed this fic when you first posted it :(

Anyway. It's lovely - the beach, the chance for Kat and Honor to relax in safety, and talk about their feelings, although I notice that Honor does more of that last. It's also good to have a scene that's about Kat's problems - on the Tour, she spends a lot of time meeting new people and dealing with their issues. This fic has a more inward focus.

Whole kingdoms had been swallowed up by the Inundation. She suppressed a shiver. Despite – or in some cases because – of the destruction, plenty of cultures and beliefs honoured or worshipped the ocean in some way; The Lady of the Waves was an aspect of Honor's goddess, but the Sea Queen, Lord of the Tides, and the Great Water, were just a few of the other deities from various faiths that Kat knew of.

I like this glimpse of the past of Kat's world, too. The Inundation was obviously important - that and the reference to Kat's mother's death make me think maybe she was killed by a tsunami or flood.

I also really like the reference to the many water deities, and how people worship because of the sea's destructive power.
