The Captain and the Storm Maiden listened intently as Everett posed his thoughts and concerns to the discussion. When he finished, both the duo glanced at each other as if communicating silently. Elheim nodded to Talyndra, before he spoke.
"We thought you might ask about your golems, not Aurums Talyndra... Go-lems" Elheim said sarcastically as he gave the elf a pointed look. "That being said, I think it's best if I let Talyndra field your questions, we've talked it through before this and she tells me there's something she'd like you to see first." Elheim ended with a smirk. "I'd watch out for your throat if I were you. They always try to get me in the jugular..."
The elf wordlessly approached the alchemist before reaching out to gently grasp his shoulder. "Everett.. come with me this way." Her voice was smooth and melodic as she bade the human to follow her.
Talyndra led the way wordlessly down to her room, where she retrieved her cloak. Securing it just below the hollow of her throat with a brooch, she walked back out and headed to the steps leading up onto the deck. Unlatching the door, they were greeted by a rush of wind as Talyndra stepped out under a star filled sky. As it was night, the Anarthiren was flying significantly lower to conserve energy, just over the tops of trees. Looming silhouettes of distant hills could be seen drifting past; if one looked carefully enough, they would see dark shapes in the far distance, a wall of blackness that was the Skyreach Mountains. Eweca was only just rising out of the horizon, her luminescence half obscured by patches of clouds. A glance to the east behind them, and they would've seen the fading crimson skies as Anara retreated, her sojourn for the day nearing its completion. Talyndra closed her eyes momentarily, savouring the rush of wind as her cloak billowed about her, occasionally clinging to her slim form.
Stepping away from the door, Talyndra turned left to climb the steps leading up to the bridge and the pilot's box. She half turned to look over her should as she walked, "Elheim and I had a brief discussion while you were resting. It was mainly about your Aur- golems..." She let the statement hang as they reached the top of the stairs. The pilot looked up curiously as they walked past and she exchanged a brief greeting with him. They were now headed to the aft of the Anarthiren, where several large supply crates were stacked. Making her way around them, the duo finally reached the very back of the ship where they beheld a large wooden platform. It was wide enough to hold three horse carriages side by side and was secured out over the back railings. The platform itself had no such security features, only several ropes anchored to hooks along the sides. Grasping the edge of the platform with her hands, Talyndra nimbly hoisted herself up onto the wooden decking.
"Come on up here." The elf turned, ready to offer a hand to help Everett up. Not that he really needed it but more out of politeness.
