A scoff met Sah's declaration, though Tal was grinning right after. "Aren't you overestimatin' your ability? They've got proper detectives in that town an' everything," Tal revealed with a smirk. "An' all the guards have dragons!" Which were pretty amazing companions after all.

At the cabin door Tal breathed a quiet sigh of relief as the other captains seemed more amused than annoyed by their curiosity. As Sah went to take a seat inside the courier eyed the comparatively small enclosure dubiously and then gave a shake of his head. "Nah, I'm goin' t'see how they steer it," he whispered back. He clapped the hunter on the shoulder and headed back out and up onto the quarterdeck to join Boreal. The pilot spared him a glance and a friendly nod and Tal adjusted his goggles to protect his eyes from the wind as he joined her. The ship moved swiftly through the sky, sails full and belled out as they caught a strong wind off the storm that was blowing up south and east of them.
Tal examined the wheel and watched as the pilot adjusted the ship by increments. Seeing his sincere interest she began to quietly explain what she was doing and why as the courier listened with shining eyes.
Boreal huffed and flopped down on the deck a little ways back, closing her eyes and tucking her head under wing for a nap.
