The Celestial Ship
Deep in space the commander of the SRF-003 Calnus Edge Maverick is about to give the order to land on the nameless planet after scanning it finding the planet to be suitable for human life. the scanners also show that the technological ability of the planet is the same as medieval times. He then calls to his aid to make preparations to land. Faize then takes the controls and lands the ship.
Edge and his crew then set foot on Faerûn near the outskirts of the nearby city under lock-down by the local lord due to the wailing death plague. Seeing a city Edge makes a decision to enter but is stopped by the two guards at the entrance who then tell them " no one may pass this city is under quarantine by law of the lords of neverwinter "
Edge then asks why is this city under lock-down. The guards then tell him it is the wailing death a plague that has spread throughout the city until it is solved no one may enter or leave. Edge then steps up to the gatekeepers intending to help but before he can say another word Reimi tugs on his arm. " edge maybe we should leave " Edge has other ideas reminding her of their mission for the SRF in which Reimi responds " yes i know , explore all worlds suitable for colonization and fix the impediments to said colonization "
Edge responds " this wailing death seems to be a impediment to colonization to me and besides it will make a good report to the SRF. "
Reimi responds " what a nice public face you put on " as Edge shrugs off the thought and approaches the gatekeeper " we like to help out " for a while the gatekeeper will refuse but after some more talks from Edge he opens the gate to let them in " keep in mind ounce you are in you are not coming out until this crisis is over "
the group then walks inside where they are then greeted by the people of the city mistaking them for gods and gather around them
" our prayers had been answered "
" please use your powers to save us "
Edge and Reimi look at each other confused "gods ? "
when another person pulls on Edge's hand the group then continues
" yes we saw them land on their celestial ship "
Edge and Reimi continues to have mixed reactions not knowing what these people are doing. Faize then tells them " it seems these people think we are gods and our vessal as the celestial ship. " Aribeth then takes note of the commotion and moves in to investigate, hearing the people calling the group who just entered the city saviors.
Aribeth then invites the group to the hall of justice making her formal introduction and explains the situation to the group as Reimi scans one of the victoms of the plague with her scanner responding to Faize " it is not picking up any viruses " Faize then presses on his judgement guessing it is perhaps something based on symbology (aka magic ) Faize and Reimi then return to their commander who agrees to help out however they can but on one condition that they will not be treated as gods.
outside in the city Sora Windrunner follows on one of the leads given to her by Aribeth and heads to the peninsula district finding strange happenings in the prison finding that she has to find a way to break into the prison finding that a gang leader has the key in which she had to defend herself but was unable to nearly killing her in the process before the fatal blow made contact a spell cast on her activated taking her back to the hall of justice this alerted the three people who were talking to Aribeth.
the other healers then gather around the injured person and heal her as Faize seems amused at how advanced the magic is in this world. Sora then gets back on her feet when the others are finished and then stating that she has to return to her mission and walks to the door. Edge and the others then stop her saying that it is unsafe and we will go with you. At first Sora will refuse seeing that she never seen these people and she will be seen as weak but the entire healing process was seen by Edge and his team who remind her you nearly died its time you learn to trust others and not be so stuck up when offered help, in which Faize agrees and responds " one person can only do so much "
Sora finally agrees to let Edge and his companions come with her.
