Sailing into the wind certainly sounded like as much of a pain as flying into the wind, and Soh hummed her agreement as she picked out a strawberry to take a bite of. She did her best not to freeze when Jack’s name came up - Flora was playing it cool, so she would, too - and turned her attention to her drink, which was getting a bit low in the glass. ”I wonder if you could quest for, like… magic that would let you sail any which way regardless of the wind?” she mused. But magic was not her strong suit, and she was more than happy to let smarter people than her figure out what that might look like (looking at you, Flora).
Soh followed Flora’s gaze to watch a hel wheeling overhead and grinned. ”Yeah, it’s hard to really wrap your head around until it actually matters, y’know?” she agreed. ”I mean, animals are built for it, so they make it look easy, and skyships are magic, so gods only know how they work, but it sure doesn’t seem hard just watching them, right?” She laughed a little, leaning to reach for a pitcher of lemonade to top off her glass.
As she settled back, she pursed her lips. ”Honestly? I’m not totally sure. I tend to fly short distances, personally, but I know snowy owls in the wild can go a few hundred miles in a day, under the right conditions. I’ve never tried that - no reason to migrate, or hunt for my meals, which is why a wild snowy owl would stay up that long. I’d say, on average? Maybe a couple hours at a time, but I think it probably varies by bird - or skyboat.”
