Tira looked at Vhaidra, and then at Lily, and then back at Vhaidra, "what do you mean? Maybe she is claustrophobic?"

Some miles to the north east the Battleship Arbiter and a squadron of Dwarvish and Imperial warships were spread out over several miles of sky. The Dwarves had taken the time to build a fully functioning small city to test the effects of the weapon and were now putting on the final touches.

Admiral Zalatel had read on the details of the device and was intrigued with the cleverness behind it and was becoming curious on if it would work. The device was spherical shaped and 5 feet tall. It's outer casing was a series of rings fused together on their ends. In the inside was some advanced wiring and magicks that Zalatel did not fully understand. To make a long story short the weapon acted as a very large enchantment, this one in particular was a "super" lightning enchantment. The weapon was dubbed, "The Big Dwarf" and was currently undergoing last minute checks on the ship that carried it. Admiral Zalatel refused to carry the device on his ship, and made sure that he was as far away as suggested for safety.

(Everyone at the experiment now knows what the weapon is and what it is supposed to do)

"Yeah, there isn't much to do on this ship.... too small...," Tira thought for a moment. "Maybe we could move some boxes in the aft cargo hold and play some sort of game in there? There should be enough room if we move some stuff around..."

Tira laughed hysterically, "I don't know if Zark's pride could handle it if he lost!" She laughed some more and when she was able to contain herself she continued, "well I am going to go find Zarky and get him to help us, go and get Valen, he seems to always be in his quarters, tell him to stop being a creeper and live a little, come out and mingle a little!" Tira then skipped away to Zark's room.

Sitting off in a corner tuning his violin Benvolio smiled at the plans of the ladies. It was great fun being on this ship, but he did worry about Lily. Her coughing and nervousness was reaching levels that concerned him. " You ok there Lily?"

Valen was rereading an old diary he had, written by an Elvish summoner long since dead. It was on his studies of Demons. In total it covered 700 years of research, some of it very dangerous, in the end the summoner had died by a Demon that he had summoned and had broke loose from it's magical bonds. The most interesting parts were on First Demon Lords, and a specific Demon known as 'Dais'. Few mortals knew Demons by name, and fewer still lived to tell about it, so any early incites on someone like Dais was invaluable.

Valen sighed at hearing Tira's response to him. "That sounds like something she would say." He closed the book and put it on his shelf, "alright, what are we moving around?"

"Ah, manual labor, of course," Valen said sarcastically.

Zark and Tira were already in the cargo hold. Tira's small, relatively weak frame made her mostly useless in moving the larger boxes, so instead she directed Zark in moving him, much to his annoyance. When she saw Vhaidra and Valen come in she waved enthusiastically, "alright, so we are stacking the crates and boxes up against the walls to create a sort of 'court' for.... well whatever! Don't stack them any higher than 10 feet, so that is like 2 or 3, and then when you are done we are going to secure them with safety nets so they don't fall and squash us all the next time a strong breeze rocks the ship." She grinned at the last part in a sort of creepy way.

Tira was standing on top of a box and then jumped onto a larger box that Zark had just picked up, nearly causing him to stumble. She yawned and sat down, "but I am getting so tired from planning and organizing all this.... I think I will just take a nap up here." She lay down and curled up in a ball on top of the box.

Zark audibly growled, "I don't think so!" He shook the box causing her to fall off, but he didn't realize that she would roll off the box in his direction, landing on his face and causing him to drop the crate and fall to ground. Fortunately Valen moved and grabbed the crate to stop it from falling to the ground.

Tira jumped up and looked a little emotionally hurt with her classic pouty face, "Valen understands me!" She hugged Valen while he continued working, "don't you Valen."

"No, not really. I stopped trying to figure at how you think a long time ago."
