[PQ+] a tale of two skyports

please just don't forget me What started as an initial trip to the Aumakua has ended here, in the Kaiholo Port. It has taken a lot of back and forth, a lot of conversations between Torchers, skyboat captains and the Stormbreak dockmaster alike, and this area has been decided as the best to fashion a skyport. (Ronin doesn't ask questions or object - it makes sense that those already looking to travel don't have to trek up to the cliffs, and this way the skyport will benefit from the traffic and protection of existing docks and boats). They have found an old, abandoned area for use - it will take a lot of TLC to bring it up to scratch and to modify it for skyboats, but should their hard work pay off, there will be a functioning port for travel between Torchline and Stormbreak. But first, there's that hard work to do. Ronin has arranged the supplies, and at this sorry stretch of dock there is fresh lumber, a barrel full of wood treatments to waterproof and protect it, stone, rope, nails, and other equipment. Now the Star stands to wait for those who will join him on the endeavour. The sooner it's done the better, because the monsoons will soon be on their way. What better way to see if the skyport will stand the test of the weather than to throw it out there and see? Hello and welcome! This is a PQ+ to establish a skyport for travel between Stormbreak and Torchline. 2 Order members are required, and 2 Torchers are required to complete this quest. But any others are welcome too! Please post your character arriving. 1. Ronin (Order) 2. Sunjata (Torchline) 3. Gideon (Order) 4. Maeve (Torchline)

Gideon had taken a while after the successful destruction of the shrine to spend his time quietly worshipping, praying and thanking the Gods for what they had accomplished. A lot of his work was simple communion with the divine, things that no one saw but that were integral to his keeping of the Temple and faith.

Hearing of the Skyports though, he knew he wanted to head out of the temple to help. An easier way to travel between Stormbreak and anywhere else meant easier spreading of the true word to those corrupted by the Voice's messages. He'd already been going to Torchline regularly, but now he could bring people back with him, show them the Temple and way of living that was available to those who saw the light (provided they were Accepted, of course).

Seeing Ronin at the meeting point he broke into a warm smile. Of course, they had had their moment not long ago, but Gideon was more pleased to hear of the man joining the Order. An actual Demi God in their ranks - it was wonderful. "I am, as always, here to serve in whatever way is required." He promised, bowing his head slightly with the faintest smirk on his lips.

GIDEON

And lord, don't let me break this, let me hold you lightly
Give me arms to pray with instead of ones that hold too tightly

SUNJATA

the flood

dreams where you're murdered
boy i know you heard it all before

If Ronin recalls, not long ago he had requested Sunjata meet him with a white flag and a brooding face. This time, the Flood arrives with a particularly deep brood, no humor or amusement to be found, and no visible white flag — instead it had been etched into his bones. He arrives, put together only in the name of working to build this and Safrin.

The greeting Gideon gets is one long look, narrowed steel in his eyes, before his gaze flickers to Ronin where he dips his head in a non vocal hello — but given the Star has his attuned bond back, he’d likely feel a mess of emotions leaking from the Flood as he tries to hold it down tight. “Ready when you are.” He murmurs, pulling his attention away for the items brought, for the instruction that was sure to follow on how to build this dock.
