It has been cutting through all the rain and any cloud that dares to stand in its way349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTUiTUzjQ6
ever since it departed from the Human palace, the seat of all Human power, with a349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHouvsZgQyq
stunning roar provided by the three powerful engines on its rear that propel the aircraft349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpz4uf648G
with unprecedented Human technology. For this mission, top speed is its concern, not349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwWtxh6va1
concealment, and so it was likely many saw it sharply cut through the skies on its way349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEouzxkpzT
here. It is indeed quite the feat, a technological prowess on a league of its own and349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7mFO5JrIc
most likely capable of stunning even the Nharkim. The Beriheim Mountain is to be349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneBb3TynPt
its destination and to get there the Bolt Lander quickly flew over the Great Northern349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoESTDEVZYU
Gate, over the marshes of Pantaan and the spiked stones of Cabero Valley where many349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbjFAsA913
great battles have been decided. Something easily deduced by all the bones of many349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnZ82nFpKu
giants and other long-gone things. A dry place as it must remain eternally bound to349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu8AWsveUw
the sun and its wrath, forever a slave to its scolding will. After those yellowed sights,349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPOOUkIGou
green starts to sprout again and shortly after, if one is flying that is, the Beriheim349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcDoZyC19j
region becomes finally within reach. The advent of flying was mostly made possible349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4XwihVix2
to avoid setting foot in such desolated places like Cabero Valley, although there have349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2LATzVlGV
always been those stubborn caravans marching through it. Especially when Beriheim349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR5YCBEJvF
was not a region best avoided but was sought out instead. It was once fertile, and a few349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYoGVtPTn3
happy settlements could be found there. All of that belongs to the past now...349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGbEchNf8C
The mountain was finally in sight of that tired pilot. It reached his old eyes after349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6cSaOwLFp
yet another, albeit bigger than usual, thunderclap - one as if announcing their arrival.349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7TiJvFPs8
No amount of clouds or threatening thunders could keep it hidden anymore, and the349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA41WCBqyE
sounds of those struggling engines had no choice but to make themselves even louder.349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UihGjPRVx
They grew desperate as the Bolt Lander’s efforts against that punishing storm kept349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXHuOzjsuJ
increasing; an effort that did not go unnoticed by its cargo. The force of five sent...349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRIvsErWKF
“Boss...” called out one of the four calmly sitting with a beautiful, elegant sword349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6XmEuxqXR
stationed between his legs “and you didn’t want us to tag along this time.”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7l56bhJR7
“Keep it shut.” said the one sitting in front of him; a female whose voluptuous349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxGf2pwqrS
curves were a gift that no shadow could ever hope to conceal. “What, and miss out on349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGPdBvtpVB
all this?” he insisted as he spun around that sword a couple of times.349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyLpisH1k3
“Yeah captain,” another joined in; also feminine, with a calm and collected voice349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBE3x4Rh4a
“Why didn’t you want us to come along this time?” she asked while her fingers kept349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrrTjnxSn9
drumming one of her thighs... The one standing up said nothing...349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KWKkMqd1a
“Capt’n? Capt’n can ya hear me?” a voice rustling through a small box on the wall,349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYVbLayACX
they were words from the pilot, and they are struggling to reach the five waiting349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPYydUkprE
patiently.349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeebPBclSVG
“We hear you Sheiska.” the one standing up finally spoke, “Give us the good news.”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfch4qY0K4D
“Sir, she can’t take it for much longer...” the obvious difficulty the pilot was having349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO4K3IFxVO
easily discerned from all that increasing static “We have to make the drop-off now...”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJn6A87Apvo
“How far are we from that mountain?” the captain of the Hand asked while looking349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWrAtYaxjm
at the rest. “We will soon be flying over Brosse...”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcYIDe22kA
“Is there no way she can bring us any closer?” the captain’s right hand already waving349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcGhcYGVDZ
to the rest as an indication to make themselves ready “Sheiska?”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOWe8qYTIX
“No sir, I don’t... God darn it... all...” a louder sound than usual was heard this time349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRqTG9GWXg
coming not from the speaker box but the pilot’s cabinet. “I guess not...” the captain349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGm7SfQmGv
murmured... “Sorry sir... lost the reading on the instruments for a while there” things349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv9AccYGqb
resumed to just how bad they were previously “So what say you, captain?”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx23rJmywcW
“It’s not like we have much choice,” the captain looked behind him and saw the349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4p7FRhskH
other four already fully prepared and waiting “open it up for us when you are ready.”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEcs18qtP9
“Aye, sir...” the sound of a heavy lock was heard as mechanical noises capable of349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7ZZZmJ34s
distinguishing themselves, even with such a storm running rampant outside, were349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnljY9rxrQg
heard heading to the back of the aircraft. Their eyes followed and then the way for349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBOHOeuFcy
them to jump unfurled. “Sir I would strongly advise for a halo jump with this nasty349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlaDLWFkx9
weather and all.”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusa2wPxQI0
“Alright you heard the man...” the captain’s words placed all five in a single file349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PeAAqGFhp
“We dive straight down to get away from these clouds as fast as possible and once we349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyLor6JQw9
are in the clear I will signal you all to deploy the parachutes. Now gear up and let’s go.349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDykSE2b3d
Rhim, you go first.”349Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxACWMinoaH
