Look over edge to see what our not-servoskulls (note: build servoskulls) landed on.

While it is hard to tell from this height, there's a vast forest stretching directly below you.

As you stretch your ice-covered wings and begin to fly for the first time since 5000 years, you feel exceptionally light compared to what you used to.  In fact, lack of heavy flesh made it significantly easier for you to begin your flight and roost, as you make a quick flight towards the peak of the mountain.

There's nothing at the top, but you feel comfortable enough to leave this place immediately and be able to return to it, should the need (or urge) arise.

// Didn't see that one coming, did you?

[Mithras]

Ooh, either we were very clever or someone was very considerate. Identify if the floating island appears to be moving and in what direction. Then enjoy the view, taking an especial interest in the climate and if anywhere appears to be populated.

The island appears to be still, beyond the slight up-and-down hovering.
The climate is temperate, so you shouldn't melt anytime soon.

Far below you on the coast, you spot something unusual - it looks like a fairly large city, but covered in a blue-ish sphere on top. You can't see anything inside it, but you would expect a lot to be there, given that it looks large even from this place.
Which does have a gorgeous view of the entire landscape. There a few more islands, but you can't spot anything unusual on them.

Fly a bit away from the mountain and then back, to test our stamina.

After an extensive flying session you find out that lack of "true" flesh pretty much eliminates your need to rest, as you could fly with great speed around the island for a very long time.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Are we ready to go to the surface?

[GrizzlyAdamz]

Wait, we're in a mountain? Looks more like a 'node' to me.


-And yes, I'd say lets go introduce ourselves. (nicely)

[Mesa]

I never said it's a mountain.
I said it's a floating island.

And I tend to misuse the term island.
It's a floating chunk of rock with a mausoleum built into it.

If we can fly fine while still being made of solid ice, then surely we could make minature versions of ourselves and animate them for some support in the event we get attacked.

// Only thing is, you don't have any wing bones beyond your own. And you need those. That ice flesh needs some support, yo.

Create flying version of snowball scouts, send them to scout the stuff around in detail incl. the city.

// How exactly do you want them to fly? Dude, we do have magic, but there IS stuff that's outside the realm of possibility, for us at least.

Bah! Usually I'd agree, caution is a good thing. This time though I think we should just go on over and see how it goes. Friendly-like.

[Mesa]

// You're going to leave this place regardless. I doubt us just sitting here for another 5000 years would make for a good ASG.

Wings made from ice or something like that i guess.
