Indeed, Ramirez had acquired a vessel for OSTA's leader. Not just any vessel, either. It was an airship, previously owned by the Valuan Armada. Though not quite as elaborate as his old flagship, it still had some charm in it. The weapons were a bit above standard and the quarters were rather luxurious as well. It would do quite nicely, for now ( ... )

The approach to Hassaleh would be uneventful.

The island was small, after all; its only contact with the outside world these days was a small skyliner from Alfard that dropped by twice a week. And even then, that usually only marked the pickup of what products the islanders gathered and created and delivered the payment that the market paid for those. It wasn't much, but the inhabitants were grateful for even that. It had been only twenty-five years since their able-bodied had been used for slave labor. At least those days were long gone.

The first thing anyone would notice about Hassaleh would be the thornwood. Thick vines curled over the island, threatening to even crawl along the ramshackle docks. It was spring for the island: here and there, large pink flowers bloomed from the vines, with still more buds yet to open.

Nothing else would be there to greet them: it wasn't skyliner day. There were no islanders there with their goods, ready to ship to Alfard.

Perhaps OSTA's arrival would go unnoticed.

B-ko had no idea how battle hungry Ramirez was. If she did, she might have assigned another to this mission. But here they were, and the ship, battleship though it was, was necessary to reach such a high location. (Not that she didn't appreciate anything that could blow a hole through a tank.) She was just fine with the uneventful trip, and truth be told her mind rested only as much as was required on the details of the mission at hand. Getting the plants was just a small step in her plans ( ... )

Ramirez merely trailed behind B-ko, one hand on the hilt of his sword, glancing blankly ahead. He had no interest in sight-seeing whatsoever, therefore he bluntly ignored the plants that blocked their path. They could have easily been hacked away, but if OSTA's leader felt they could go around the obstacles, then around them they would go.

As they reached the village, the Silvite boy barely even blinked in recognition. Instead, he kept a close eye out for assailants, ready to strike should the need arise.

This village simply looks old. The buildings look like they've been around for centuries, with only a few modifications. The most noticeable feature, though, is a tall tower on the opposite side of the village; it's absolutely covered in thorny vines. Of course, a lot of the village is, most of the village is, but this tower looks like the only thing keeping it together is the vines ( ... )
