Still, it's going to take a while to sweep all of this sea floor. More so when his great aspiration was even more.
Which is why for this little test tour, he's only picked the more major spots that his wargs had already spotted beforehand.
After all, he's gotta start somewhere.
But for the most part, all that he's hauled up was great enough already.
From gold coins to gems and unique artifacts... and yes, this included two more Valyrian steel blades.
One he called Barnacled, in honor of its barnacled hilt. Meaning that it had a subpar handle but the blade was good... so it just needed some replacement, one that should have intentional barnacling designs, cause why not?
The other, he named Entrenched. Because he found it stuck in that rather narrow trench amongst that sunken fleet he just scavenged through.
And as opposed to the Barnacled one that was rather incomplete, this other was perfectly Valyrian steel through and through. It even had an actual Valyrian steel scabbard to matchingly sheath into. To "entrench" in.
In any case, even with that one and the other, Ronan always found the Valyrian steel stuff to be interesting finds.
Sort of like a collection of collectibles. And he's up to 8 already.
------------
Granted, to move from those special steels from Old Valyria... the next spot and the next material he had his eyes on... was on an actual crater formation. Under the water still.
And no doubt made by a meteorite from the initial looks of it... or a fallen star.
Meaning that if it had no alien nor Pennywise nonsense... it could very well be made into a space sword like Sokka's... or just be like the Dawn of the Daynes.
Which should be quite cool. And an even rarer pull in this blind box he calls the Narrow Sea.
Alas, when he finally reached said meteorite in a more up-close and personal viewing, it really was rather big and rather hefty...
And as much of a positive that was, his Bronze Manta suit is already negating tons and tons of pressure enough as it is.
And lifting such heavy of a load wasn't part of its design...
So, Bronze Manta Ronan could only utilize his more Aquaman side for help.
His chain-ready sharks from his Sharknado might not suffice though... and that Moby Dick was quite far away.
So, he had to resort to another kind of help... from a more close-by and soon-to-be-convinced helper... that had ten appendages.
Then again, such a move will most likely just reinforce his feats as a Bronze of the Deep...
Especially when out of nowhere... a literal giant Kraken to suddenly burst out of Runestone's waters... put down a huge stone onto the beach... and then submerged itself again.
And as a follow-up shocker to his constituents... his big-headed form soon emerged...
To double-check that the meteorite really was just a unique rock with no space cooties... specifically when it's out and exposed to the air.
But yeah... after a quick knock or two on the thing, Ronan was assured and just sank back to the seawaters once again.
To maybe give the still-clueless Rhaenyra a pranking fright with such a huge squid as a prop.
Nonetheless, it had to be noted that he's stressed many already.
Especially the locals and the surfers... who had just gotten their peace back after the piece-by-piece deconstruction of the beached Ice Dragon.
But it probably won't be long for the Vale and the rest of the realm to react the same... with the Ironborns and the Greyjoys to become the most conflicted.
While the Celtigars might even start rethinking the rumored horn they had in stock.
