It has been cutting through all the rain and any cloud that dares to stand in its way433Please respect copyright.PENANAt42gu8iS5p
ever since it departed from the Human palace, the seat of all Human power, with a433Please respect copyright.PENANAB86XrxMbY5
stunning roar provided by the three powerful engines on its rear that propel the aircraft433Please respect copyright.PENANAQQqXt2HCLD
with unprecedented Human technology. For this mission, top speed is its concern, not433Please respect copyright.PENANAH24FjLjAod
concealment, and so it was likely many saw it sharply cut through the skies on its way433Please respect copyright.PENANAVmqeJyo9Je
here. It is indeed quite the feat, a technological prowess on a league of its own and433Please respect copyright.PENANA05UkojxzUY
most likely capable of stunning even the Nharkim. The Beriheim Mountain is to be433Please respect copyright.PENANAa0R06ws2PQ
its destination and to get there the Bolt Lander quickly flew over the Great Northern433Please respect copyright.PENANAi8khKfngyy
Gate, over the marshes of Pantaan and the spiked stones of Cabero Valley where many433Please respect copyright.PENANAGS60mFmpWR
great battles have been decided. Something easily deduced by all the bones of many433Please respect copyright.PENANA1GV1mrGLiA
giants and other long-gone things. A dry place as it must remain eternally bound to433Please respect copyright.PENANAzKTYm0ULZV
the sun and its wrath, forever a slave to its scolding will. After those yellowed sights,433Please respect copyright.PENANAcnd5EbpydK
green starts to sprout again and shortly after, if one is flying that is, the Beriheim433Please respect copyright.PENANAivPwTidp1W
region becomes finally within reach. The advent of flying was mostly made possible433Please respect copyright.PENANAE9ksBvrGID
to avoid setting foot in such desolated places like Cabero Valley, although there have433Please respect copyright.PENANAaJVIA1csWn
always been those stubborn caravans marching through it. Especially when Beriheim433Please respect copyright.PENANAFhlg1CYw9K
was not a region best avoided but was sought out instead. It was once fertile, and a few433Please respect copyright.PENANAVNumzi3H0J
happy settlements could be found there. All of that belongs to the past now...433Please respect copyright.PENANAkmTredXizH
The mountain was finally in sight of that tired pilot. It reached his old eyes after433Please respect copyright.PENANAiMoCXdwOG8
yet another, albeit bigger than usual, thunderclap - one as if announcing their arrival.433Please respect copyright.PENANAUEpEJWcjtw
No amount of clouds or threatening thunders could keep it hidden anymore, and the433Please respect copyright.PENANA6DXXejZo2E
sounds of those struggling engines had no choice but to make themselves even louder.433Please respect copyright.PENANAjDIjGZoFVL
They grew desperate as the Bolt Lander’s efforts against that punishing storm kept433Please respect copyright.PENANAgGoHZPv3h7
increasing; an effort that did not go unnoticed by its cargo. The force of five sent...433Please respect copyright.PENANAPRDufHGaUM
“Boss...” called out one of the four calmly sitting with a beautiful, elegant sword433Please respect copyright.PENANAniT26xw10w
stationed between his legs “and you didn’t want us to tag along this time.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAZFX3saKOv9
“Keep it shut.” said the one sitting in front of him; a female whose voluptuous433Please respect copyright.PENANAmFzgNNbf6p
curves were a gift that no shadow could ever hope to conceal. “What, and miss out on433Please respect copyright.PENANA7wkRt6KTaD
all this?” he insisted as he spun around that sword a couple of times.433Please respect copyright.PENANAwM395AzzZF
“Yeah captain,” another joined in; also feminine, with a calm and collected voice433Please respect copyright.PENANAVsqpe8mbkn
“Why didn’t you want us to come along this time?” she asked while her fingers kept433Please respect copyright.PENANADIiEPL4Lty
drumming one of her thighs... The one standing up said nothing...433Please respect copyright.PENANAaqUPEZexve
“Capt’n? Capt’n can ya hear me?” a voice rustling through a small box on the wall,433Please respect copyright.PENANAx19Ed07aOl
they were words from the pilot, and they are struggling to reach the five waiting433Please respect copyright.PENANAyYbPTLeEmT
patiently.433Please respect copyright.PENANAZt8MoAeCRB
“We hear you Sheiska.” the one standing up finally spoke, “Give us the good news.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAyfMVcYiCZh
“Sir, she can’t take it for much longer...” the obvious difficulty the pilot was having433Please respect copyright.PENANASLkuxvAQ4e
easily discerned from all that increasing static “We have to make the drop-off now...”433Please respect copyright.PENANAkubkhvO1JF
“How far are we from that mountain?” the captain of the Hand asked while looking433Please respect copyright.PENANAwg3R3X7Xat
at the rest. “We will soon be flying over Brosse...”433Please respect copyright.PENANAqiOWXJSazA
“Is there no way she can bring us any closer?” the captain’s right hand already waving433Please respect copyright.PENANAt3isaRRCza
to the rest as an indication to make themselves ready “Sheiska?”433Please respect copyright.PENANAmWV2aTwI9l
“No sir, I don’t... God darn it... all...” a louder sound than usual was heard this time433Please respect copyright.PENANAIDSKPRTC9n
coming not from the speaker box but the pilot’s cabinet. “I guess not...” the captain433Please respect copyright.PENANAx1bp3fbCQe
murmured... “Sorry sir... lost the reading on the instruments for a while there” things433Please respect copyright.PENANACJywsmLIkf
resumed to just how bad they were previously “So what say you, captain?”433Please respect copyright.PENANAEZdxhEHJ5s
“It’s not like we have much choice,” the captain looked behind him and saw the433Please respect copyright.PENANAGURmAFPn1p
other four already fully prepared and waiting “open it up for us when you are ready.”433Please respect copyright.PENANA32x4v2yD0M
“Aye, sir...” the sound of a heavy lock was heard as mechanical noises capable of433Please respect copyright.PENANAiRSNq3fm2U
distinguishing themselves, even with such a storm running rampant outside, were433Please respect copyright.PENANArbp4zNnnrA
heard heading to the back of the aircraft. Their eyes followed and then the way for433Please respect copyright.PENANAyMgio03erK
them to jump unfurled. “Sir I would strongly advise for a halo jump with this nasty433Please respect copyright.PENANA43zBTTWx9S
weather and all.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAfviqPRK9dk
“Alright you heard the man...” the captain’s words placed all five in a single file433Please respect copyright.PENANAMcNmNlY375
“We dive straight down to get away from these clouds as fast as possible and once we433Please respect copyright.PENANAdiBrRSzkZv
are in the clear I will signal you all to deploy the parachutes. Now gear up and let’s go.433Please respect copyright.PENANA9S1fqnlMts
Rhim, you go first.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAbXxdYkATdz
