[Well those sure are some reassuring words, though Alhaitham supposes he should not have expected anything otherwise. There certainly still are a lot of things that he's going to have to understand and learn that comes with being in this place, though that is not necessarily a bad thing. More knowledge is never inherently a bad thing, though this particular brand is a little different from the norm.
He grabs the scarf when its tossed over to him, immediately tying it around his face much in the way she'd done earlier (though he'd had to lift each earpiece to better tuck it behind his ear just to be certain). He's still in the middle of doing that when the first sign of their target shows itself, and Alhaitham just manages to stay upright as the boat lurches underneath them.
...at least having thrown up means that his stomach doesn't have as much of a reason to bother him now, and Alhaitham just manages to get the scarf settled on his face as claw, followed by a hand, skitters forward and over the side of the ship, the first of the mermaids making themselves known.
With his hands now free Alhaitham draws his sword out, and it appears into his hand with a small flash of light. He readies his blade once its in his head, eyes carefully watching the mermaid as it emerges from the depths. He doesn't call forth the power of his Vision just yet, wanting to find a more appropriate chance before doing so.]
