Beyond the sky

"So," Luminia says. "How do we get to the cities?" She asks with a look, yearning for answers. "We need a way to get up." I tell her. "Up...?" She adds, confused. "There." I tell her, pointing to the planet rising into the sky, visible through the tent's partly open zipper. "Caesia, sister, wake up." She says in a calm but commanding tone. "Mmmm..... what now?" Caesia asks. "We need a ship." Luminia asks of Caesia. "Whatcha' gonna do? Sail around grass?" She answers almost immediately. "No, a ship to that." Luminia tells her, pointing to the planet.

"Whoa.... wait a sec. I may be able to make things out of thin air, but.... a vessel capable of crossing a distance between planets..." Caesia replies, shocked as if lighting struck her. I can tell this is gonna be fun. "What, can't handle a little spaceship?" Luminia teases her to get her to do it. "I can!" Caesia answers pouting. Luminia grabs my arm and pulls me out of the tent with her. I look back and see Caesia following us. Caesia and Luminia nod at each other. Caesia starts to take bits of light from the air, and piece them together. She does it for about an hour. I stare at her and the light she's putting together, I can already see the shape of the rocket. It's shape seems streamlined, like a tall cone, it's got indentations and antennae and intakes... engines. I look back to Caesia, she's putting the final touches on the ship. A few moments later, she stops and sits down on the ground. "Tiring as far as tiring's definition allows it to be." Caesia says loudly, panting, sweating. I look to Luminia, she approaches her sister and puts her right hand on Caesia's chest, I know she's not searching for a heartbeat since she's not gonna get past those two... Luminia's hand glows and seconds after, she stops and stands. "Thanks, sis." Caesia thanks her, patting her on the back.

I ask. "Now then, shall we get on?"
