It has been cutting through all the rain and any cloud that dares to stand in its way435Please respect copyright.PENANAI840udChtw
ever since it departed from the Human palace, the seat of all Human power, with a435Please respect copyright.PENANAS4SBrUQCJb
stunning roar provided by the three powerful engines on its rear that propel the aircraft435Please respect copyright.PENANAILubpWrTFW
with unprecedented Human technology. For this mission, top speed is its concern, not435Please respect copyright.PENANAkHZQJWGLBc
concealment, and so it was likely many saw it sharply cut through the skies on its way435Please respect copyright.PENANA8HNZxgZYiA
here. It is indeed quite the feat, a technological prowess on a league of its own and435Please respect copyright.PENANAmB3WzPHHoi
most likely capable of stunning even the Nharkim. The Beriheim Mountain is to be435Please respect copyright.PENANAa9jCJZSEDg
its destination and to get there the Bolt Lander quickly flew over the Great Northern435Please respect copyright.PENANAiKkp1Yboty
Gate, over the marshes of Pantaan and the spiked stones of Cabero Valley where many435Please respect copyright.PENANAnsWHRz7ewV
great battles have been decided. Something easily deduced by all the bones of many435Please respect copyright.PENANAX7Mih994nV
giants and other long-gone things. A dry place as it must remain eternally bound to435Please respect copyright.PENANAI8xVn8P0rE
the sun and its wrath, forever a slave to its scolding will. After those yellowed sights,435Please respect copyright.PENANAsBPPr1Q8do
green starts to sprout again and shortly after, if one is flying that is, the Beriheim435Please respect copyright.PENANAiRgz8jQita
region becomes finally within reach. The advent of flying was mostly made possible435Please respect copyright.PENANAhChFVjhoud
to avoid setting foot in such desolated places like Cabero Valley, although there have435Please respect copyright.PENANAiqYp5youiM
always been those stubborn caravans marching through it. Especially when Beriheim435Please respect copyright.PENANAGy13noA4Qy
was not a region best avoided but was sought out instead. It was once fertile, and a few435Please respect copyright.PENANAEIJL9ekVic
happy settlements could be found there. All of that belongs to the past now...435Please respect copyright.PENANAArvLeKe8Yk
The mountain was finally in sight of that tired pilot. It reached his old eyes after435Please respect copyright.PENANAcRwwNzylaf
yet another, albeit bigger than usual, thunderclap - one as if announcing their arrival.435Please respect copyright.PENANABo9yIJ6Rpu
No amount of clouds or threatening thunders could keep it hidden anymore, and the435Please respect copyright.PENANAdtyTOMCvqz
sounds of those struggling engines had no choice but to make themselves even louder.435Please respect copyright.PENANAUhmHdhOmpd
They grew desperate as the Bolt Lander’s efforts against that punishing storm kept435Please respect copyright.PENANA2LgtOQ5gZo
increasing; an effort that did not go unnoticed by its cargo. The force of five sent...435Please respect copyright.PENANACAtvtvvqv1
“Boss...” called out one of the four calmly sitting with a beautiful, elegant sword435Please respect copyright.PENANAjQSeyZ0xaC
stationed between his legs “and you didn’t want us to tag along this time.”435Please respect copyright.PENANAs4qtAxYk7i
“Keep it shut.” said the one sitting in front of him; a female whose voluptuous435Please respect copyright.PENANAbE6ocGeZ6I
curves were a gift that no shadow could ever hope to conceal. “What, and miss out on435Please respect copyright.PENANAAHnX3uoHpr
all this?” he insisted as he spun around that sword a couple of times.435Please respect copyright.PENANAOhs9F8klcS
“Yeah captain,” another joined in; also feminine, with a calm and collected voice435Please respect copyright.PENANAIsv86USX0z
“Why didn’t you want us to come along this time?” she asked while her fingers kept435Please respect copyright.PENANA0NVrDPZvfr
drumming one of her thighs... The one standing up said nothing...435Please respect copyright.PENANAAYB4cpLT6E
“Capt’n? Capt’n can ya hear me?” a voice rustling through a small box on the wall,435Please respect copyright.PENANAKh0Lo3gqZA
they were words from the pilot, and they are struggling to reach the five waiting435Please respect copyright.PENANAInNA3OIYlA
patiently.435Please respect copyright.PENANAS4elgeiyhw
“We hear you Sheiska.” the one standing up finally spoke, “Give us the good news.”435Please respect copyright.PENANAcdSvN2hFOf
“Sir, she can’t take it for much longer...” the obvious difficulty the pilot was having435Please respect copyright.PENANA2MuyaveIaP
easily discerned from all that increasing static “We have to make the drop-off now...”435Please respect copyright.PENANACDGlykytzP
“How far are we from that mountain?” the captain of the Hand asked while looking435Please respect copyright.PENANADCUUCiyqro
at the rest. “We will soon be flying over Brosse...”435Please respect copyright.PENANACuIRuHxP5t
“Is there no way she can bring us any closer?” the captain’s right hand already waving435Please respect copyright.PENANA9EqzEMhGLj
to the rest as an indication to make themselves ready “Sheiska?”435Please respect copyright.PENANAQMBJMGrxYd
“No sir, I don’t... God darn it... all...” a louder sound than usual was heard this time435Please respect copyright.PENANAw6ENFWpDDy
coming not from the speaker box but the pilot’s cabinet. “I guess not...” the captain435Please respect copyright.PENANAw3Vc0w7N1J
murmured... “Sorry sir... lost the reading on the instruments for a while there” things435Please respect copyright.PENANARo2dWDUIYz
resumed to just how bad they were previously “So what say you, captain?”435Please respect copyright.PENANAn6lCQopRdr
“It’s not like we have much choice,” the captain looked behind him and saw the435Please respect copyright.PENANA524wBmBJ9o
other four already fully prepared and waiting “open it up for us when you are ready.”435Please respect copyright.PENANAQ04SrDJBmp
“Aye, sir...” the sound of a heavy lock was heard as mechanical noises capable of435Please respect copyright.PENANA0aggH0Ii04
distinguishing themselves, even with such a storm running rampant outside, were435Please respect copyright.PENANARXYJLwncxc
heard heading to the back of the aircraft. Their eyes followed and then the way for435Please respect copyright.PENANAuwzNDlX2EB
them to jump unfurled. “Sir I would strongly advise for a halo jump with this nasty435Please respect copyright.PENANAcvyDnE7VKX
weather and all.”435Please respect copyright.PENANAlWAhf4IG7l
“Alright you heard the man...” the captain’s words placed all five in a single file435Please respect copyright.PENANAXWUQKJVVze
“We dive straight down to get away from these clouds as fast as possible and once we435Please respect copyright.PENANAIwLqrkTyIb
are in the clear I will signal you all to deploy the parachutes. Now gear up and let’s go.435Please respect copyright.PENANA5HYVD9DLBC
Rhim, you go first.”435Please respect copyright.PENANARBO3nhOCLd
