The Bravos discuss their progress at the docks

The sun shined bright in the sky up over the bay as the Bravos gathered to look out over the sea and finalize their plans. Air ships were moored in the clear blue waters, nearly as at home on the waves as they were in the sky and their crews ran about them, unloading and loading goods, doing small repairs, and getting ready to set off back into the sky. Most of the shadier crews seemed to come through at night, since most of the people out and about today looked like honest merchants. Though there was no guarantee that a merchant would be any less bloodthirsty than a pirate when coin was to be had.

"Looks like we're all here, then" Fuu smiled, looking around over her gathered friends. They had grown so much these past few weeks with the addition of Robin, Skye and, more recently, Kiera. The tiny group looked quite a bit more formidable now.

"We have determined, without a doubt, that the tome was transported through this town, likely in the hands of some sky-pirate thieves." Fuu's voice was calm and level, but the dark glares on the faces of several of the other Bravos well made up for her even temperament. "I believe that we may have enough information to finally move on, track them down, and take back what was ours for the good of the Kingdom."

This bold statement earned a few puzzled looks. The Bravos had gotten some leads, that was certain, but there seemed to be some concern over whether they had learned enough.

"If I'm wrong, then I suppose we'll have to spend a few more days here in town learning what we can." Fuu's face grew serious. "Just remember that every day we put off is more distance between us and that book."
