[color=SpringGreen]”You went and spoke to her without us!”[/color] Jr whined upon hearing about Peach's meeting with the captain.

[color=DeepSkyBlue]”Now, now young master, the princess was simply being efficient I’m sure,”[/color] Kamek told the boy. He was more than used to being left behind when it came to matters like this and as no important decisions had been made without them there was little reason to raise a fuss

[color=DeepSkyBlue]”Why don’t you show the princess your new minion?”[/color] he suggested, attempting to derail the boy’s burgeoning tantrum.

[color=SpringGreen]”oh oh oh. Here.”[/color] the boy scooped up his new pig-like minion in both hands and raised it up lion king style for the princess to see [color=SpringGreen]”This is Tyrant! He’s a behemoth and he’s gonna get real big and summon meteorites when he’s grown!”[/color] 

The piglet wiggled a little in his grip, but seemed to accept being shown off without much complaint thanks to it's tummy still being presently full of pokepuff.

With Jr’s anger suitably smothered, the conversation could turn to what they were going to do with the information Peach had acquired. There were, at the moment, two routs that could be seen. Finding the The Maw and facing The Abyssal Fleet. Neither sounded like particularly pretty options to the mage, but the Cadet didn’t seem to even consider the Maw now that there was a more straightforwardly heroic option available. Kamek, frankly, did not blame him in the slightest now that they had additional confirmation of it's nightmarish nature.

[color=SpringGreen]”Airships. Duh. Boats might be old news here, but nothing beats an airship; they are the coolest thing ever!”[/color] was Jr’s response to the Cadets’s question about how they were going to get about the ocean without access to a naval vessel

[color=DeepSkyBlue]”The Airship Deck does seem to be our best option at the moment when it comes to finding transport. The Sky's Hatchery might be worth an investigation as well, in case it is some kind of giant ride-able bird supplier,”[/color] Kamek said, probably accidentally taking the name of a bar, inn or tavern literally with his last suggestion. 

[color=SpringGreen]”Sounds lame. Airship! Airship! Airship!”[/color] Jr chanted (with Mimi and Tyrant copying his tempo if not his words with kyus and oinks) in response to the bid suggestion, his mind clearly set on what they where gonna do

[color=DeepSkyBlue]”Yes yes. Airships are certainly more our troop’s forte than overgrown birds. His majesty commanded quite the fleet of them back home and the young master was quite the accomplished pilot of such vessels,”[/color] Kamek agreed [color=DeepSkyBlue]”so if we can acquire one you'll be in safe... in well practiced claws, that I can assure you”[/color]

Urbosa fell and, almost as soon as she did, Thunderblight’s Tyranny came to an end in spectacular fashion at the hands of the Phantom Thieves, who struck it down in a dazzling dance in a fractured space. 

[color=Aquamarine]”You kids really are something else,”[/color] She commented, after shielding herself from the blighted bloodrain that had erupted from the Ganon fragment’s death. She could have said more, snarked about how over the top the whole finale had been, but they’d just ended a part of Gannon. That deserved, if not admiration, then at least the courtesy of putting aside her barbs for a while. 

Tora was the one to diffuse the tension after the battle was over, releasing a loud sigh and the princess silently agreed with his assertion that the encounter they’d just had had been surprisingly sudden spike in danger. It did not gel with Midna’s experience with dungeons in the slightest. Then again, said dungeons never turned out to be perfect transport vehicles to cross the desert as Poppi and Tora together pointed out it was. The only flaw was that Minda had just dusted the person who would most likely have known how to use it.

[color=Aquamarine]”She was working with something that reeked of Ganondorf’s power, we wouldn’t have been able to trust her”[/color] Midna insisted incorrectly as she dismissed her wolfos, the beast hopping into a portal in the floor obediently without reviving any acknowledgment or praise for it's job well done at taking down Urbosa.

[color=Aquamarine]”Besides, I’m sure I can figure it out”[/color] she insisted, even though the task was a daunting one. Primrose's reminder of spirit mechanics and suggestion that they use spirits of the fallen defenders to help them take control provided a convenient shortcut for the task of deciphering the controls of the massive magical construct.

She drifted over to the dancer and plucked the spirit of Urbosa from her hand, [color=Aquamarine]”Seeing as I’ll have the best basis for what we’ll be learning from this one, I’ll take the plunge”[/color] she said, before indicating to the remaining spirit of Thunderblight [color=Aquamarine]”Also, If you know what’s good for you, you’ll break that one rather than let it anywhere close to your heart or mind”[/color] she indicated to Thunderblight [color=Aquamarine]”and pray to whatever goddesses you hold dear that its corrupt master hasn’t risen yet in this world. This fight is nothing when compared to facing Gannondorf himself would be like”[/color] 

With her warning given, the princess drifted back and raised the sprite of Urbosa towards her forehead. She paused right before contact, taking another breath to psych herself up completely for her first comprise of the self, and then completing the move, pressing the spirit through the fused shadow and into her forehead to absorb its knowledge.
