Elsewhere No One's POV

Akhos: Welcome home, Jin.

Jin: Hey, Akhos.

Akhos: I hear the Aegis awakened. Nasty shock for you?
Or was it...? Of course, my script showed how everything would play out from the start.

Obrona: Sure, you say that once it's all over and done with.
It's easy to act smug when hindsight's on your side!

Akhos spun to face the high pitched Blade

Akhos: Shut your mouth, Obrona!

Obrona pretended to be frightened

Obrona: I'm shaking to my core.

Malos: Where are the other two?

Akhos: Mikhail's inspecting the Ardainian "factory"... And my beloved sister is out hunting, as always. I'm sure she'll have found plenty of Drivers to chew up and spit out by now.

Malos: She likes to hunt, all right.
Not sure we can use all of those Core Crystals though...

Jin: Do we know where the Aegis is right now?

Akhos: Have no fear, Jin! Of course we know her whereabouts! Obrona?

Obrona: Yeah, yeah…

Obrona projected a holographic map of Gormott, with a small dot moving quickly towards literally nothing, there was nothing on the map.

Akhos: Hm! It seems they're currently traveling away from the urban area of Gormott.

Malos: Leaving the town? But there's nothing out that way...

Akhos: Perhaps they're on their way out of Gormott itself. Oh, and...

Jin: What?

Akhos: It seems a certain shipment has set out.

Malos: The Core Crystals heading to Indol for cleansing, huh? How pious of them... Shall we handle them?

Jin: I can deal with that myself. You concentrate on the Aegis.

Akhos: Understood. Well, I am looking forward to clapping eyes on the Aegis... By the way...what of Nia?

Jin: You know where she is?

Akhos: Yes. Look. This dot here.
Without a doubt, this is Dromarch's wavelength. It seems they're traveling together with the Aegis.

Jin: With the Aegis? Do as you see fit.

Akhos: Understood. You don't need to ask me twice.

Malos: Right then. We're gonna take the Monoceros.

Jin: Hm. As you wish.

Malos: Hey! Don't do anything too reckless.

Back with em Kai POV

Tora: What is that?

Rex: A Cloud Sea compass. A must-have for salvagers. It's sort of a map of the Cloud Sea. If you do this... And this... What's the date today?

Kai: How would I know? Pretty sure I'm not from around here.

Pyra: Um... Amathatober 5th, 4058.

Rex: OK! So now we put the date in... See?

A holographic map of Alrest appeared
Kai: I wonder how far one could travel from the World Tree before the sea falls to chaos

Pyra: Why would it fall to chaos at all?

Kai: Well the Yggdrasil holds the Cloud Sea in place right?

Pyra: Yes

Rex: Yggdrasil?

Kai: Another name for World Tree, anyway, because of that, there must be a limit to how far it's roots reach, so the Cloid Sea must have a point where the laws of physics of this world are shattered into nothing.

Tora: This is very clever.

Azurda: Anyway, looks like Gormott is the closest country to the World Tree right now.

Rex: All we need is a ship...

Dromarch: The army has every ship in town in its grip.

Nia: *sigh* We're kinda stuck...

Pyra: Seems that way.

Azurda: Sorry I'm no use now...

Rex: I know, I know. But I'm all out of ideas.

Tora: Rex-Rex need ship? Tora have good idea!

Rex: You do?

Tora: There is ship builder living at Gormott Titan's bum-bum!
Old friend of Tora's Grampypon. He called Umon! Maybe he help if we tell him what's what!

Rex: Sure, it's worth a shot! Let's get going.

Kai: Okay.... don't think I want to walk on Titan ass though...

I know this one was pretty short, but at least it's an update. Cause I'm fucking tired. Let me know if I fucked up, and go to bed.
