It has been cutting through all the rain and any cloud that dares to stand in its way381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC2nz7AaxG
ever since it departed from the Human palace, the seat of all Human power, with a381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlspdPXhNtE
stunning roar provided by the three powerful engines on its rear that propel the aircraft381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW2OZYpp67
with unprecedented Human technology. For this mission, top speed is its concern, not381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsG8NxkqlO
concealment, and so it was likely many saw it sharply cut through the skies on its way381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqyxNqrvE0
here. It is indeed quite the feat, a technological prowess on a league of its own and381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVh1r3pEPo
most likely capable of stunning even the Nharkim. The Beriheim Mountain is to be381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsKV0QTkQO
its destination and to get there the Bolt Lander quickly flew over the Great Northern381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C9IIOqLND
Gate, over the marshes of Pantaan and the spiked stones of Cabero Valley where many381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5PeP4aRnE
great battles have been decided. Something easily deduced by all the bones of many381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEzo8TYFlW
giants and other long-gone things. A dry place as it must remain eternally bound to381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSa4euH5rV
the sun and its wrath, forever a slave to its scolding will. After those yellowed sights,381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKknUF52DE
green starts to sprout again and shortly after, if one is flying that is, the Beriheim381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYrtydoiYF
region becomes finally within reach. The advent of flying was mostly made possible381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh9hWjwGf8
to avoid setting foot in such desolated places like Cabero Valley, although there have381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL2eN8mp7I
always been those stubborn caravans marching through it. Especially when Beriheim381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YqcROpb0k
was not a region best avoided but was sought out instead. It was once fertile, and a few381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6mA7SeRjY
happy settlements could be found there. All of that belongs to the past now...381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEeQLIyG9W
The mountain was finally in sight of that tired pilot. It reached his old eyes after381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hkRCoS2VP
yet another, albeit bigger than usual, thunderclap - one as if announcing their arrival.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPCZZhiFTn
No amount of clouds or threatening thunders could keep it hidden anymore, and the381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHLAAvIwe7
sounds of those struggling engines had no choice but to make themselves even louder.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzlYjzkpVK
They grew desperate as the Bolt Lander’s efforts against that punishing storm kept381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsM5JM663J
increasing; an effort that did not go unnoticed by its cargo. The force of five sent...381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWH6s1AkeQ
“Boss...” called out one of the four calmly sitting with a beautiful, elegant sword381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mFIt0Kdu7
stationed between his legs “and you didn’t want us to tag along this time.”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ1VQexATD
“Keep it shut.” said the one sitting in front of him; a female whose voluptuous381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoAPU5fBpP
curves were a gift that no shadow could ever hope to conceal. “What, and miss out on381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpndMNzq1QX
all this?” he insisted as he spun around that sword a couple of times.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x20X4e2dm
“Yeah captain,” another joined in; also feminine, with a calm and collected voice381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtFn8VKGhb
“Why didn’t you want us to come along this time?” she asked while her fingers kept381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdxd7zZB9o
drumming one of her thighs... The one standing up said nothing...381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrVQMLXG7i
“Capt’n? Capt’n can ya hear me?” a voice rustling through a small box on the wall,381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJcaiALcJR
they were words from the pilot, and they are struggling to reach the five waiting381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRv4ChMCGd
patiently.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbWrltR51F
“We hear you Sheiska.” the one standing up finally spoke, “Give us the good news.”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17Fuj04k5g
“Sir, she can’t take it for much longer...” the obvious difficulty the pilot was having381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHHDik7LyZ
easily discerned from all that increasing static “We have to make the drop-off now...”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR8TVn9kFr
“How far are we from that mountain?” the captain of the Hand asked while looking381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgk85kLBwf
at the rest. “We will soon be flying over Brosse...”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYsppfV0pq
“Is there no way she can bring us any closer?” the captain’s right hand already waving381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaRM17dd6d
to the rest as an indication to make themselves ready “Sheiska?”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxIdcYGTZ8
“No sir, I don’t... God darn it... all...” a louder sound than usual was heard this time381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpLHFmt9nK
coming not from the speaker box but the pilot’s cabinet. “I guess not...” the captain381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgx6ugNryf
murmured... “Sorry sir... lost the reading on the instruments for a while there” things381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1XFpLUHQr
resumed to just how bad they were previously “So what say you, captain?”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktO6L9hbtS
“It’s not like we have much choice,” the captain looked behind him and saw the381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXIUubXTlJ
other four already fully prepared and waiting “open it up for us when you are ready.”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOhbSzQpfW
“Aye, sir...” the sound of a heavy lock was heard as mechanical noises capable of381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRSUWWOhU0
distinguishing themselves, even with such a storm running rampant outside, were381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgWv5UtXjE
heard heading to the back of the aircraft. Their eyes followed and then the way for381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDnxdlR37m
them to jump unfurled. “Sir I would strongly advise for a halo jump with this nasty381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb5xIBdgo3
weather and all.”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyfkft1eQt
“Alright you heard the man...” the captain’s words placed all five in a single file381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3N7olMWC0
“We dive straight down to get away from these clouds as fast as possible and once we381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl6Ia13FoI
are in the clear I will signal you all to deploy the parachutes. Now gear up and let’s go.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowLoF58s1f
Rhim, you go first.”381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGpifHAbhZ
