Captain Melody S. Regalia stood anxiously at the bow of the sky whale Muse, blanket wrapped tightly around her frame, and a hand clamped upon a railing. The condensation from the clouds chilled her to the bone and tears ran like rivers down her cheeks - flying without goggles was an unpleasant experience. Queen Diana insisted that they travel through the skies since it was faster than traveling by water, but the Captain wished that her Majesty had at least built a building or two on the animal. It was frightening to know that a slip of the hand could tip a body to fall to the land below. Luckily no such thing had happened yet.
The creature crested over a hill with a mighty slap of its tail, causing the captain's adrenaline levels to spike. Her breath hitched in her throat, caught there by the sight of Guy'ah's capital city, Avi. The sprawling streets, the elegant architecture, and the crowds of people - it was breath taking. But the sight was soon lost on her; the sky whale moved several miles, into the poor district of Avi, where there were small fires set on the streets and beggars pestering the rich for food and Reputation. The plumes of smoke gathered in the sky to mix with the clouds. The woman looked upon the spectacle with stoic eyes.
In the distance, Melody saw the light house of Nerf Harbor, flickering like a candle in the dark. The sky whale would make its descent shortly, where her party would get their bearings and search for the weapon. It was highly unlikely that the King and Queen of Guy'ah would know of Iwaku's predicament, but in case they did, Melody brought gifts for the royalty.
"How are you all doing back there?" She yelled to the others over the rush of the wind.
