At those words, Kyrien and Jehregard released the ropes. If the Wing was going to fly, she was going to have to do it on her own. The dragons parted and flew away. Onin and Jehregard flew toward the Firstland. Kyrien disappeared into the clouds.
Strapped in and with the physical, emotional, and energetic support of the crew, Jessub Tillerman did his best to take them lower--safely.
When the Dragon's Wing did grace the seas once again, she entered the water like a brick. Jessub managed to land the Dragon's Wing without sinking her, though he did soak the crew.
Gwen shook her head and unbuckled herself. "I thought you were going to kill us all."
"Sorry about that," Jessub said, his head hung so low, Kenward could barely see how red his face was. "It looked like you needed help."
Gwen smiled. "I did, and somehow being smothered by you did manage to improve the situation."
He grinned at that statement. "I told Gramma and Grampa I'd be a great adventurer one day," he said with a catch in his voice and a tear on his cheek.
"And that you are," Kenward said. "By the looks of it part flightmaster and part thrustmaster to boot. You're going to have to tell me how you learned so fast. You should have seen what it was like trying to get Pelivor to do it."
"I watched him and Gwen. Always thought I could see the wing structures but never believed I could do it myself."
"What changed your mind?" Kenward asked.
"I hated being in Dragonhold," Jessub admitted. "Once the barrier went up, I felt like I was suffocating. Most people seemed to be fine, but those with power suffered." he shrugged. "After that, I just acted on instinct. I thought we were all going to die."
"You did well," Fasha said. "Now we just need to figure out what to do next."
"Please," Sinjin said as he emerged from the crowd. Kenward hadn't even seen him board. It must have been terribly difficult to leave his mother behind. "Take us home."
This was the first time Kenward had heard Sinjin refer to the Firstland as home. It was progress, he supposed. Going there suited him just fine. Most of his crew was aboard and the Firstland was as easy a place as any to build a new airship. Having access to dragons tended to make a great many things easier.
After no one aboard offered any argument, Fasha set a course. Wind and sail propelled them, and Kenward could hardly believe it. Taking deep breaths and stretching out on the deck of his sister's ship, he enjoyed it while it lasted. A few moments later, a bird flew overhead and he grinned.
