Myska's Menagerie fly to Mount Fohkala still hoping to outpace Scizzord.


The bulk of the flight was marked by piddling downtime activities while Astrid and Chupta slowly separated out their flight shifts to give the woman more personal flight time with shorter stretches of instruction. It would still be a while before she could fully operate the vesssel in any conditions but the duo were attempting to make up the speed they had lost with two full operators of the vessel with Temren's absence.
  During the flight, a Chupta-inquired Legend Lore on the destination revealed some information that implied that Mount Fohkala might be the lair of a dragon... So...there's that... (The information received in the Legend Lore: “Mount Fohkala is praised by the Ta Xha Fan as either a god or the home of a god. In millennia past, Fohkala was the most active of all of the volcanoes of the Everstorm until it was calmed by an outside source. During the calming of Fohkala, it was visited by the one titled Drakenbrood.”)
    During the evenings, a few items of note came up. First, Astrid and Crush had a sit-down about the tortle taking up the Guardian Emblem of Chauntea.. As battles have continued on, it seemed more tactically fitting that Crush have the protection centered on him and the vibe of the Grain Goddess seemed to mesh with the druid's spore schtick. In addition to these conversations, Chupta was once more tempted to take up his tome to reach out for answers from other planes but found his mind riddled once again with ideas not meant to be comprehended by mortals. He would rest this off and despite conversations about attempting again he decided not to.
  The airship traveled from the tale end of winter in the frozen northeast down to the tropical jungles in early spring. The transition with it brought a solid increase in steady climate over time and distance. During the flight Crush had managed to Scry on Scizzord to sea the tortle amid a fertile jungle standing over a wing plucked aarakocra as he finished his torture. Scizzord demanded to be taken to the indivdual's leader, their “Speaker”, before being led through the jungles for the majority of the scrying. It was with this information that pressured the question on if the party would overshoot their destination and go out to the Orchid Islands. Despite the temptation, speed seemed the primary need and as such they would land near the volcano. While observant of any society's about, they would not not go out of their way to find people.
