Alright, look at the bottom after reading your turns for what's going on and where you are.
Move forwards to see what the floating things are.
((The flying mode would have helped so much on the first misson))
soooooooo.
The floating things are "waaaaaaaaay BACK there .... back from whence you came. You know .... OUTSIDE. The opposite direction from your goal.
Still want to go after them?
((Nope)
At first you're all like "I should fly over there and see what those creatures are" but then you're like "damn, that was a long flight, I don't want to go back" So you turn forward. And then you look back one last time, just in time to see a massive chunk of the remaining wall strip away and fall, in what looks from this distance like slow motion. Dust swirls, bits fall, and floaty things kinda drift away, also in slow motion. As the wall strips away, more of the twilight floods in, making more of the world visible, though not exactly bright.
"holy shit, you guys, are you seeing that?"
follow the indicator...and keep a lookout for any hostiles...and an eye on Freddy, just in case he tries to do something potentially extremely dangerous
(2) and here I was, going to roll for hostiles anyway. Sure enough, what at first looked like a dusty cloud up ahead is something else instead. Whatever it is, it's moving toward you.. The light from behind reveals that it's more like a giant flock of something than a cloud. It's above, and to the left (aka the dark side of the planet). So far, Freddie isn't doing anything dangerous, but you are starting to hope he does do something dangerous, looking at that cloud. "I hope it isn't ants. Ants eat, like, everything." You mutter.
Follow Vladen and examine the floating creatures. Enjoy the Jester's (Gak) puns.
"Heir, have you seen these flying creatures before? Or the tentacle monster?"
Well, Vladen wants to go forward, so you follow forward. Huh, and you were the one wanting to teleport in as far as you could before. *shrug* the heart wants what it wants, I guess.
Cruising along! Stay chill. Make puns if the opportunity arises.
Seeing half the outside of the planet peel away inspires you. "Lighten up guys. Let's knock down the walls you've built up around your hearts. With daggers. Let me stab you. Let me stab you all!" You sit back and cackle at your own genius.
Follow the others around. How am I feeling? Does the big pillar in the distance look interesting? How far away is it, really?
The Giant Pillar That Is A World looks appealing. you are starting to see features on it. Some shadows, some ridges, a few rocks orbiting it slowly, in a counter clockwise fashion. The bridges that reach out to the Pillar look ringed by giant holes, and you see some activity around at least the closets couple of them. You bet you could make it there in [two turns] if you flew strait on and ignored the swarm of NightGulls up and to your left. And, you know, the swarm didn't eat you before you arrived.
You feel thirsty. You feel energized by the flight. You've only flown this far and this free in dreams before. And now you possibly have something to chase and eat!
The Pillar is definitely covering your forward view now. You'll arrive in a turn or two, if you don't die. You can see floating islands orbiting it, and activity around the bridges to the pillar. A major chunk of the outside wall of the planetoid just stripped away, falling mostly outward, but inward as well. Curiously, once the top part stripped down to where the concourses end, the wall continued to crack and peel, but the debris fell upward instead. This all happened in what looked like slow motion.
You are currently being approached by a cloud of things. It's definitely alive, and there are definitely a lot of the things. they are above and to the left, nearer to the Pillar than you are. They remain in the shaded part of the planet so far. Yes, they look like a risk. A problem to be solved. A threat to life and limb. And also to cargo.
