Put out to pasture

terryclothToday was Loxley's World Tree Game. We retrieved our lost puppies, took a ride on the hindenberg, and familiarized ourselves with our new Village. Lots of talking and plotting, not much action. But we're in a civilized society, so that's to be expected.
There's not really a lot to say here... Loxley and Wonkotirip were located, and were very glad to be rescued, even if it was only to sort of maybe be prisoners or not. The reunited party spent the day playing tourist, and in the morning were led to a gigantic airship -- although the gondola part wasn't all THAT much bigger than the Catalina. It was the envelope for the smoke which was huge. Still, impressive.
The ship was mostly empty, with a small crew, and all classified material seemed to have been hastily removed, leaving it mostly empty. The crew was friendly enough, although they didn't know why the party was so important, and Linn (the Danetti spy/diplomat/handler) hinted firmly that they were Not To Be Told.
So, instead, the party spent the time spying, and being spied on, and, in Silverspray's and Cimmanerova's case, flirting, with Kijji and the officers respectively, and with some degree of success (although it was only a four day flight, and nothing really serious happened). Oh, and also studying the Danetti language, with Linn's help.
Upon arrival, they were grumped at by the head of the ranch, and handed off to the head of 'the team' they'd be working with... who were (they claimed) the most senior researchers who actually did research and (they hinted) some sort of underground movement with a somewhat scary affinity for 'aliens'.
The ranch seems like a nice enough place, so far, if a bit boring. It's hundreds of miles from anywhere, and there isn't even any real danger of monster attack, since the Danetti scoured the verticals and underneath, wiping out all monsters in their territory. It has a lake to swim in, at least.
But there's a lot of work ahead to invent the spells to enhance liftweed to outrun the mobies and reach the upper tree, and build a ship to take advantage of it. Not to mention figuring out who, if anyone, they can trust.
