Hearing all the plans and suggestions everyone was making, Marry figured that they weren't going to go digging for this ship later or carry it out of their landing zone. [color=39b54a]"Well then, if its a base we need, I'll be back."[/color] Marry said, poking her head through the portal hole she had made. [color=39b54a]"I'll place as big of a portal as I can on the ground outside here and fly around to find some place more... stable. Be careful!"[/color] Marry said. 

Flying outside the ship, Marry closed her doorway portals and after concentrating for a bit, fired a portal on what looked liked a island of earth. She wasn't sure if it was big enough to accommodate the drill, but worse comes to worse there were always some kindergartner drills they could probably use. After all, Earth was once supposed to be a gem colony before it became as unmentionable as it is.

Either way, it was nice being a gem that could fly. Sure it was slow and more of a slow glide than what the gems with wings could do, but it was still a nice feeling being unbound from the ground. Once Marry made her way past the treeline and was in the open sky, she started to scan for a good place to fire her next portal as she rose. Not finding one, she decided to just fire a portal at a nearby mountain peak and use that for a better vantage point. 

Dropping and going into the portal she had made on the ground, she appeared over the mountain she had fired her previous portal at, the fast cold mountain winds leaking through the portal and scaring most of the wildlife that had gotten curious at the shining light screen that had previously been there. On top of this mountain, Marry could get a much better view of the land, and found a nice clearing at the base of a rocky cliff, and lights nearby! That last bit was kinda strange, but then humans could talk if the rumors were true, so it only was logical that they could make a society. Actually that was quite an interesting thought, a society of humans that could produce lights, Maybe they could have tech that'd at least be serviceable to a spaceship? Or at least have the ability to produce some of the damaged tech. Marry didn't think for too long on this, readjusted her current portal to aim at the space she was eyeing for a base, and went back through.

Around this time the other gems had done a good lot of work on salvaging the ship. And with some precise aim through her first portal in the swamp, Marry got a portal at a nice area with some varied defensible terrain with a human settlement nearby. Of course even with that work done, it would be up to the group if they wanted this spot or if Marry should look for a different one.

[color=39b54a]"So ladies, hows the ship coming along? I found a decent spot to camp out. Not sure if there is any gem temple nearby, but at least theres no fear of stuff sinking. Oh, and did you know the humans have society now with lights and everything?"[/color]
