Re: February 18th:

by Rory Thu May 09, 2013 2:32 am

Rory looked around for something to hold onto. Upon recalling the rails on the sides of the room, he reached between the bodies around him to grab one. "What did you do?" he asked, alarmed, as he tried to keep his balance.

by Archengeia Thu May 09, 2013 2:37 am

Fierneceal shrugs. "I asked it to take us to the bridge."

The journey literally only takes seconds when the doors open with a rush to a massive, sprawling room which appears to be completely lined with glass, bottom, walls, and ceiling. There are consoles scattered everywhere with Pyreal plates upon them of a design you've learned to recognize by now.

by Snarg of Wildpaw Thu May 09, 2013 2:40 am

"Whoa!" Snarg springs forward and begins scampering around the room, tapping and sometimes speaking to the panels.

by Z Thu May 09, 2013 2:41 am

*curiosity finally getting the better of her Z walks up and examines one of the pyreal plates. Reaching out a hand to touch it.*

by Rory Thu May 09, 2013 2:42 am

Rory stood at the edge of the elevator. He put one foot on the glass, and took it off. "Is this normal?" he asked.

by Zeiss Thu May 09, 2013 2:43 am

Zeiss lays his eyes with awe. He walks out slowly out of the "elevator".

"...You can help us with that Fierneceal?"

He sees Z reach an hand to one of the panels. He grabs her arm to stop her.

"Do not touch anything. Kez was captured because she touched something she wasn't supposed to."

Spoiler:

by Z Thu May 09, 2013 2:48 am

*Z turns to look back at Zeiss who has grabbed her arm and suddenly catches sight of the glass floor. Whatever retort she had attempted to say dies on her lips and a look of absolute terror crosses her features before she sinks to the floor eyes locked on the ground many many feet below.*

by Archengeia Thu May 09, 2013 2:52 am

Fierneceal frowns and begins browsing the stations one by one. "Give me... a minute. Uhm, probably several minutes. There's a... LOT of information here. Actually," she turns to the group, "What do we want first?"

by Zeiss Thu May 09, 2013 2:54 am

"Oh frell..."

Realizing that Z was terrified once more of the height, Zeiss tries to support her, ignoring Fierneceal's question for now.

"Hey, calm down. We are fine. That airship was here for a long time, it is in good shape, so we won't fall. I think."

He bites his lip. That last part was unnecessary.

by Snarg of Wildpaw Thu May 09, 2013 2:55 am

Snarg stops his poking around for a moment when he notices Z sink to the floor. He romps over and leans down to her. "Hey. Don't look down, that doesn't help." He lets out a heavy sigh. "Look, sorry I left back on the bridge, we were running out of time then. Here." He extends a hand down to Z. "Come on up and look around. You don't get a chance to see things like this often."

by Rory Thu May 09, 2013 2:55 am

Upon seeing Z's reaction, getting no reaction from Fierneceal, and having walked on glass floors at high altitudes before, Rory boldly steps forward and stands in the room, in part to spite Z.

"We want to fix this Tusker problem," Rory responded immediately. "If we can't do that with the ship, then we need to get a message to someone who can."

by Z Thu May 09, 2013 2:55 am

*Z makes no sign of recognition of you zeiss.*

by Snarg of Wildpaw Thu May 09, 2013 2:56 am

Snarg calls over to Fiernaceal: "Does it have some sort of scanners, sensors, or something that can tell us what's wrong with our Mite? Don't big usually airships have something like that?"

by Zeiss Thu May 09, 2013 2:57 am

Zeiss, becoming really worried, snaps his fingers in front of Z's face.

"Hey... can you hear me?"

by Z Thu May 09, 2013 2:59 am

*Z is muttering something under her breath, very quickly and very softly.*

by Zeiss Thu May 09, 2013 3:02 am

Because it seemed like the others left Z in his care, Zeiss starts to feel embarrassed. But he leans towards Z to try to hear what she is saying.

"Can you repeat that...?"

He looks for a moment at Fierneceal, who is "talking" to the airship, but quickly returns his attention to Z.

by Snarg of Wildpaw Thu May 09, 2013 3:03 am

Snarg sets down the canvas and bends further down, putting his face in Z's line of sight. "Uh, you need something? Anything?" He glances over to Zeiss and shrugs.

by Z Thu May 09, 2013 3:10 am

Elven 4 zeiss and snarg:

by Archengeia Thu May 09, 2013 3:12 am

Gwydo, finally overcoming his raw awe at the sight and beauty of the room, realizes Z is in trouble and rushes over to her, hugging her close. His Aura envelopes her, magically removing her fear. "Don't worry Z, I'm with you."

by Z Thu May 09, 2013 3:16 am

*Z stops muttering and blinks a few times. She looks down between her feet and shudders. After a moment she stands and remains fairly close to Gwydo observing but you notice purposefully not looking down.*

by Zeiss Thu May 09, 2013 3:20 am

Zeiss sighs, assured now that she was alright. He knew they could need her at any moment and having her at least conscious was good. Furthermore, they would not need to carry her.

He goes to Fierneceal to hear what she has learned about the airship.

by Snarg of Wildpaw Thu May 09, 2013 3:21 am

Snarg raises an eyebrow, a bit of concern still present on his face. He stands up, picking up the canvas. "Maybe you two should stick together until we're out of here then."

by Archengeia Thu May 09, 2013 3:23 am

Fierneceal spends almost 20 minutes going from panel to panel, blinking occasionally to clear her head from the massive amount of information being poured into it, before she finally comes across a station on the far right side of the area. "Here, this... yes!" She grins. "This is, oh WOW..." she trails off, her eyes glazing over.

by Zeiss Thu May 09, 2013 3:25 am

Zeiss waits for Fierneceal to continue her sentence. When she doesn't, Zeiss, who is fidgeting in place, says :

"What? Do not keep up the suspense, we want to know."

by Rory Thu May 09, 2013 3:25 am

Rory walks over to whatever technology she happens to be standing over and looks at it. "What? What is it?"
