Description
For eight days after the flyby, there was no end of discussion in Colony 1 nor the nearby native villages about the flyby of the unknown craft. The natives had become a bit more wary of the Infrastructurals. Their was still some wonder about who sent it and what they were doing. Especially if they were going to come back and if they came back would they be friendly, or would they come to lay waste to the colony.

Discovery considered what was being said, but did not find much use in most of it. The one exception was the fact that the local tribes all had legends of mythical figures; be they gods, demons, benevolent spirits, heroes or all of the above, who road on great flying boats. Using the airship Discovery had monitored much of the western coastline of this continent and had done a survey of the surrounding area for a few hundred kilometers. Mostly it was grasslands with some bogs, hills and moderate mountains to the north and some hilly lands to the west. Sparsely populated by peoples living out of comparatively small villages or in nomadic bands of at most around ten thousand. Even so, there were other areas to the west which they had observed on their approach. The two Western Continents both had a mountainous had in their western sections an extensive set of mountains and in the centers of these ranges were valleys that emptied out into the sea between them, forming a rough bridge of islands. Most likely whatever civilization created these came from their, but that statement explained little.

Never the less, after a week after a weak they got their answer. At about 14:00, three figures made their way over the horizon, their sails rippling as wind spells dragged them along through the air. Two of these skyships were like the one which came to investigate the Red Flaring in size. in their center was a larger one. She was larger and longer, with two horizontal masts and a pair of vertical ones on top. The two craft approached the colony and did a flyby, everyone marveled as they passed overhead clearly and distincly as people tried to make out the figures which scurried on their decks. It was hard to make them out fully, but they were not human.

Afterwards they hovered in place for a few minutes as their sails were pulled closed. Then, the first one slowly descended to about five meters above the ground outside the colony's walls and a bottom hatch opened and a ladder descended.
