Among everything that had transpired today, Savayna sighed heavily out of pure annoyance. Seeing Jaakuna and Lorenzo actually engage in such a topic not only made her miss Levi, but she had a thought of slicing her throat with her sword. Hell, she had half of a mind to get Grant’s gun and end it all right in that moment. But, of course, she didn’t because that would enable them to continue their absurd conversation.

The former Archadian General would follow Grant’s lead just moments after he had gotten up and joined him at the little bar that was well across the room. She noticed what he was going to pour and Savayna motioned towards him. “[color=lightblue]No, he doesn’t want that one,[/color]” Savayna stated.

“Are you sure?”

“[color=lightblue]Positive.[/color]” She looked along the shelf of assorted ales and liquor, “ah yes, that one.” Savayna pointed to an aged Bangaa Spiced Ale. “[color=lightblue]Two of those. Neat.[/color]” She ordered of the barkeep as she took a seat next to Grant, sighing, her fatigue showing through it. 

Savayna remained silent as their drinks were being poured. She simply would down it as it went somewhat smoothly down her throat, the afterburn of that Bangaa special spice tickling her throat just a tad too much. As much as she had drank over her years, that one still held a candle all on its own.

Time would simply pass as Savayna and Grant drank in silence. Lorenzo and Jaakuna engaged in their annoying conversation all the while Nadeline would shake her head constantly at said conversation. After a while, Reia had returned and seemed to share Nadeline’s sentiments regarding the two blonde buffoons. All the while, Emiri seemed to just laugh nervously. At least someone didn’t mind it all that much.

But, as father time would have his way, the good times were soon coming to an end as one of Roman’s guards would arrive. Well, it wasn’t just a guard, but rather one of the top guys in Archadia’s Engineering team. “Attention Ifrit Party,” he announce clearly and in an elevated tone. “My deepest apologies for keeping you waiting, but we’ve run into a slight...problem regarding the Ifrit.”

Jaakuna stood to his feet so fast that no one even saw him run to the engineer and grip him by his tunic. “[color=ed1c24]What did you do my baby? I swear to god, if you hurt her, I’ll--[/color]”

“My apologies, my liege,” the engineer said, arms up. “I meant no ill-will, but the engine seems to have encountered some errors. The Nethicite Core seemed to have an unforeseen reaction to the amount of Mist that plagued Archadia not long ago, so we will need some additional time to get it back to stable levels.”

“[color=ed1c24]Oh,[/color]” Jaakuna stated rather calmly, a drastic change to his posture just a moment ago. “[color=ed1c24]You should have said that.[/color]” Jaakuna let go of the engineer, patting his tunic free of any dust and wrinkles. 

“[color=lightblue]How much time do you require?[/color]” Savayna asked the engineer.

“I reckon about twenty-four hours, maybe more.”

“[color=lightblue]Well, that’s perfect. I suppose other means of transportation are in need.[/color]” Savayna mused aloud, biting on her thumb. “[color=lightblue]Grant and I came here one of  his--I mean Lorenzo’s--bikes, so we’re covered. I’m sure Jaakuna and Emiri can use the Aegis, so that just leaves our Rozarrians.[/color]” Savayna bit her thumb again, “[color=lightblue]oh wait that’s right.[/color]” She suddenly remembered something, “[color=lightblue]Jaakuna, didn’t you have a contraption that could seat about four people?[/color]”

The blonde Archadian prince looked to Savayna, smacking his balled fist against his open palm. “[color=ed1c24]You know what, you’re right! The Valefor should do the trick,[/color]” Jaakuna smiled to Lorenzo, “[color=ed1c24]you’re going to love it. It’s something I’ve been working on in my free time. It’s modeled after a Rozarrian airship but more compact and a lot faster. It's like that one boat you drove back in Rozarria when we encountered those evil fish things, but of course, a lot better,[/color]” Jaakuna stated smugly, snickering.
