He wondered when they would arrive. Without asking you it, nobody answers your question.

Rust expands, excited. “That is very very alive. It was not there the last time I was here. I wonder what it is for.” Quote Wait, wasn’t it Pyre?

But that is where they live right now, I think.” Quote Good point. And you weren’t the one to decide on it, which makes it harder still. 1

The driver is driving, of course. The Vvondin, in the front seat, is checking through some containers stowed up there and seemingly not paying attention to you. Quote I should go do my homework, so I will be off the Shard for potentially quite a while. I may check it briefly as a break at some point. 1

It was unlike anything he’d seen before, but then again, he’d lived in a poor part of the district.

Arriving is taking a bit longer than anticipated. For as you get closer, the tower doesn’t. Rather than a moderately sized tower a moderate distance away, it is a massive tower much further away. The tower is tilted at about thirty degrees away from the ground, held up by thin struts. The top is perhaps a thousand feet from the ground, but the overall length of the superstructure is much more. The human biologist takes his hands off the wheel and turns around, smugness in his voice. “I assume you’re all from feudal shadowville, from the shocked looks on your faces. That’s the Runway.” Edited December 1, 2024 by Ookla the Inquisitive My autocorrect is rebellious 1

And can you get this bird off my face!” 11 hours ago, Ookla the Dragonslayer said: Adtae looked at the man. Just get them there. And then he teleported to the structure to scout ahead. The structure is a massive tube that slowly ramps up to the sky. It’s seemingly made from similar materials to the suit the two “sky people” were wearing, and their self-propelled wagon. The pillars holding it up are made of the same material, and are in triangular groups, crossed by supports made from the same material. At the point the Runway reaches the ground, a large circular structure can be seen. You can still see the car, barely, which implies that they’re close. And actually, there are a few similar cars around, leaving the round building in different directions.
