Tales From the Obsidian Wing

Chapter 2 - The European Dead Zone

They landed on the outskirts of the EDZ and sealed up the ship once outside. From there, they headed to Trostland, where Devrim Kay VII was. He was apparently stationed in a church and helped with new lights, but couldn't help with focusing their light.

The real reason they were here wasn't Devrim, however. Their goal was to focus their light. Mipha had to focus Arc and Solar, Link had to focus Arc and Void, same with Soren, and Celesta had to focus Arc and Solar. They quickly get to work and before long have all variants of Light focused.

Afterward, they head to the meeting table at the back of the ship to discuss their next move, as well as work out arrangements for pretty much everything on the ship. Sleeping quarters, washrooms, and roles aboard the ship were all assigned, with Soren being the pilot, Mipha being the copilot, although she could temporarily swap roles if she wanted, Link being the engineer, and Celesta being the navigator. Link and Mipha had requested sleeping quarters close to each other, while Soren and Celesta were content with the quarters they had. There was only one washroom, so they created a start-of-day and end-of-day schedule for it, and allowed the washroom to be used by anyone at any time that is not part of the schedules. They also threw around new designations for the ship, as Hyrule didn't exist anymore, with the one they settled on being LCJS-784, which they sent to Zavala and Holliday.

They then all sat around the main table and conversed over a meal about what to do and where to go next. Soren, feeling adventurous, suggested that they go to Europa. Link suggested a vote and, in a unanimous decision, voted to go to Europa. Soren takes charge. "Well, I guess it's decided then. We will be heading to Europa. Everyone, strap in. We leave in one minute."

Everyone was ready in 30 seconds, and Soren fired up the engines, sending the ship screaming through the thick atmosphere before exiting it entirely and circularizing around Earth, preparing the jump drive. He activated the drive and the ship went to NLS. The computer said it would take a day to reach Europa, so Soren descended into the main room, as did Mipha, and the four of them played some games while they waited. Eventually, they all started to get hungry, so Soren cooked up some food for them, including some (kind of) fresh fish, rice, some chicken, and meat skewers. They all enjoyed the meal and resumed the poker game they had paused. Link was doing extremely well, as he had an excellent poker face. Soren was Link's only real competition, and it was the final match. Link said "show." Soren puts his cards on the table. "Royal flush." Link was feeling good up until those words came out of Soren's mouth. Link put his cards down, saying "Straight flush to the queen. I admit defeat." Soren took the glimmer they had put up for grabs and pats Link on the back. "You almost won that."

Just then, an alert notified them that they were almost to their destination. Soren told everyone to strap in and went to the cockpit. The ship dropped back to normal speed and Soren regained control as Europa came into view.
