Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

If Shu ever wanted to get used to flying then he really needed to start doing it again; getting a ride here and there was fine, but the little guy never flew. Not wanting to cause any undue stress Takeshi didn't say anything this time, but next go around he'd likely try getting his brother to fly. "We'll work on flying later then, we've got plenty of time for practicing. Hell, we can probably do it while we're here even!" The King was probably wanting to talk with T'charrl alone anyways, about leader stuff or whatever so they needed to find a way to pass the time. Giving Shu a small smile he patted his brother's leg, taking off finally but following some ways behind the others. "It's nice and all you think I can protect you, but I'm not always going to be there buddy. You've gotta learn how to rely on yourself, have a little more faith in what you can do, you know? I'm pretty much teaching you, so if you're that confident in me you should be just as confident in what you learned." The only way Shu was ever going to master anything was by practicing, and that meant practicing under his own volition and not with someone holding his hand. Sure it could be scary, Takeshi hadn't been crazy about flying at first either, but once you got comfortable with it the whole process just became really fun and second nature.

The musician hoped he wasn't overstepping any boundaries by saying all of this, he was only trying to be helpful. "Ah, good, good! It's always easier when someone knows how to behave! His Majesty is patient, but it's still terribly awkward for all involved. Best we avoid that, yes?" Smiling happily he watched as the other two Saiyans finally arrived, giving a small wave to both before glancing back at the Prince. "Hm? Yes, he does have children actually. Three in fact, one of which is about your age. The other two are younger, and they're all very interesting little royals! I suppose you're little friend there will have plenty of playmates while you discuss matters with the King." Speaking of Shu it seemed as though he already had something in mind for a request, how amusing. The little Saiyan had no problems putting forward his wants, and in the grand scheme of things what he requested was both extremely easy and trivial to provide. The musician snickered a little before nodding his head, turning towards the stairs. "Of course, my young friend! We have fruit to spare, I don't doubt you'll be allowed to have some. It might be a little while until we eat though, it is just past lunch time I think. But come, if you've no questions then we'll go right on ahead and see His Majesty!"

"You'll get your fruit buddy, just need to be patient," Takeshi added in, smiling as everyone started moving up to the palace. It was a pretty neat building for how simple it was; a large circular structure built into the canopy of the tree, with several smaller buildings attached to the sides of the central one. It must have been one hell of a project to create this place, let alone the whole city. From what little they had seen so far it didn't appear like these people had that high end technology that T'charrl's did, which probably meant it was all fashioned by hand. Glancing around at the building Takeshi blinked when he walked into the musician, looking down at him with an apologetic smile before glancing at the guards. The two men were pretty stoic in appearance, not coming across quite as friendly as the others had. Maybe they were just being serious because of work though, maybe some conversation would lighten them up. "Hey guys, nice to meet ya!" he said politely, smiling as he waved a bit. Neither guard seemed to do much more other than glance at him silently, making Takeshi chuckle uncertainly as he lowered his hand again. Or maybe they were all business.

"Menma, you were due back hours ago. What kept you?" one of the guards asked, tilting his head to the side curiously, "And who are these people? Just because His Majesty enjoys company doesn't mean you can drag random people by whenever you feel like it."

The musician, Menma evidently, smiled sheepishly as he hugged his lute, "I know that, but these aren't just any guests. This boy is T'charrl, Eslaria's son. And these are his friends, and I guess the people keeping him safe in a way. They're nice people I promise, they even helped me get home! I give my word that they're nice." Maybe his word wasn't as good as he liked to think as the guards shared an uncertain look between one another. Smiling exasperatedly Menma rubbed at his head, looking back at the group before at the guards once more. "Um... I mean I could send them back if you'd rather, I'm sure Eslaria wouldn't mind." A little threat, an innocent one, but that made the two men seem to reconsider rather quickly.

"Damn it Menma... Fine, but we're holding you accountable. These guests had better be well behaved, we would rather not have to explain to His Majesty why we let some troublemakers into his palace." Looking between themselves again the guards moved to the wooden doors, each grabbing a handle and pushing their respective side open. Past the doors the group would see an open area, the roof either transparent or non-existant as sunlight shone down on the floor and lite up the whole room in natural light. There were several spots in the walls and floors where holes were actually built to incorporate where the tree grew, giving the room a sense of it being built to accommodate the tree itself. Purple carpets ran up along the walls and through the center of the room, with several potted plants and various pieces of furniture lining the walls for decoration. "You know where it is, just be sure to let someone know you're bringing guests."

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

Shu definitely needed a little pick me up, and Takeshi was surprised the promise of fruit didn't do it. Even if it was coming from Haku usually just the sheer mention of fruit got the little guy all jittery. Hopefully once they actually got there and had some food in their hands Shu would perk right up, and if not he'd find a way to make him happier. "The city's going to be awesome I bet. And if these people are half as nice as that musician guy says they are it should be a lot of fun too." They would just need to be extra mindful not to screw it up, or rather he would have to be. By the looks of things they were ready to move along already with T'charrl taking to the air, the guards and the musician along with Haku not long thereafter. Figuring they should get a move on as well Takeshi went to fly up after them, pausing when Shu spoke to him again. Glancing over at his brother for a moment he smiled, nodding his head before gesturing again to his back. "Sure thing buddy, and don't be so down on yourself, you fly just fine," he reassured, helping Shu up onto his back. Okay, maybe the little guy wasn't the best, but he could still fly. It wasn't as though they were going to be flying at high speeds either, the city couldn't be all that far off.

And it really wasn't. The flight through the forests had hardly lasted 3 minutes before sights of civilization began popping up, and boy was it something else. The city was hidden but only in the sense you might not think to look for it above the trees. The first thing that struck Takeshi was the fact there were absolutely no buildings on the ground, at all. Everything was up in the air, built into the trunks of the massive trees or suspended by thick wires wrapped around the many stretching branches. Bridges ran along the trees and wide platforms created leveled areas around many of the trunks, giving the illusion of there being loads of space to move around on. A hanging city hidden amongst the trees, really cool for how simple it was. Takeshi had stopped a little bit shy of the rest of the group as they climbed up to one of the tree tops, wanting to give Shu a chance to look around some. "I bet you've never seen anything like this..." he mused, glancing back at his brother with a smile. Neither had he, it really was a treat. If Shu had lived in anything remotely like this when he was with monkeys then it might have been a decent life, but animals that flung their poo around for fun probably didn't have anything like this.

"This is where we'll be leaving you, Prince. The palace is just above, and I'm sure the guards there have been told you're on your way," the guard explained, landing on one of the many platforms. "Anything you need will be provided, I'm sure, for you and your friends. All we ask is that you respect our kingdom's laws and don't cause any trouble. Other than that... Enjoy your stay!" This was a chance to make allies with a neighboring kingdom, so everyone needed to be especially courteous to the Prince. Not that they would behave much differently otherwise, but with that opportunity on the line it was special. All four men gave a polite bow before turning and leaping off of the platform, flying back the way they had come to resume their duties.

The musician was thrilled to be here, evident by the wide smile he bore as he grasped his lute tightly. The stories he was going to have, the things he had seen, it was going to be a very interesting evening! He'd flown in a ship that was unlike any he'd seen, met Saiyans and befriended a Prince all in a matter of two days, what a splendid trip it had been. "His Majesty will be so pleased to meet all of you, I'm sure! He tries to be friendly to everyone, but meeting someone who is truly a good person makes him so jolly, you'll love meeting him!" he sang, looking back at the group as Takeshi and Shu finally joined the rest of them. "The guards up ahead are very dedicated to their job, and serious, but they'll let us through. Even a beloved king has to keep security, yes? Once we're inside I would guess one of his aides will meet us, and we'll go meet His Majesty from there. When we're in the throne room be polite, and do try not to make any comments about anything unpleasant, he rather dislikes talking about those kinds of things. Any questions before we go on?"

Haku was eager to get back into the city, and maybe this time he could actually have a look around it. As of late he was following the Princes around like a dog but at least that meant he could be out and about; they were in a new city, and maybe while the others were off playing diplomat he could wander around a little. There was enough in that place for everyone to be excited about, Shu in particular he figured. Trying to be friendly and strike up a little conversation he frowned when the other boy hardly seemed happy about it, sighing before shrugging his shoulders. "I know you like fruit, everyone knows that, and there's tons of it back in the city," he explained, glancing back over at Shu. He was near about to make a biting comment about never having a conversation but opted to clam up, not wanting to ruin things for himself. Figuring the other boy was just going to go wherever Takeshi was anyways his sharing anything was probably a moot point. Couldn't say he didn't try being friendly though.

"Oh... Uh... Please don't take our insistence the wrong way, Prince! We're just very busy men, and we're all on duty," one of the other guards chipped in quickly.

"Yes, we do apologize, but we're all supposed to be on patrol. We just happened to be the closest group to come and fetch you, you see."

The head guard smiled and nodded in agreement with his companions, looking back up at T'charrl when they were through. "Flying won't be a problem, we were going to ask about that in fact. Er..." he began, pausing as he looked at the ship, then Shu and Takeshi before finally back at the Prince. "How do we explain all of this...? That machine of yours... We have no idea what it is, and your friends... What are they?" Hopefully that wasn't coming across as rude, but none of them had any idea what they were dealing with really. Even the Prince seemed different, this certainly was going to be an unusual visit. None of them seemed to be a threat however, at worst they were a little difficult perhaps if Haku was any indication. Spreading his wings the guard motioned for the others to get in the air, gesturing for the Prince to follow them. "If you and the others are ready we could be going now. I can see if someone can come along to look after this... Ship, if you'd like."

Well this was nice, a bunch of guards that didn't want to kill them! As far as first impressions went these guys were doing a better job of it than T'charrl's people had; to be fair T'charrl hardly had control over those jerks who they'd first met. By what little he could overhear it sounded like things were being hurried along, but at least they weren't being rude about it. "If there's fruit in the city I'm sure you've got no problem going there now," the older boy joked, smirking at Shu as he nudged his shoulder, "Come on buddy, let's get going. We don't want to keep the King waiting, you know?"

Caelan was pretty done with this whole battle nonsense, and was almost debating leaving. He was a treasure hunter dammit, not some front line fighter in a war he knew nothing about. The fact he happened to be able to use magic was a convenient by-product, it didn't mean he could be conscripted into some fight and be expected to battle. Heh... Who was he kidding, even if he wanted to run he doubted he could. Onyx was really powerful, enough so that their entire group had to fight him and they were still struggling. The chances of him managing to get away without being killed were slim to none, standing and fighting would probably be the better option. He'd never been tried by another person like this before though, even when some partnerships had gone south in dungeons; Onyx was a whole different kind of enemy, one that it would only be too soon if he never encountered again. Smiling exasperatedly he looked down at his sliced up self, then around at the others to his sides. Everyone was pretty darn worse for wear and no doubt tired, but they were still fighting. He couldn't be the only person thinking like this, how it would be easier to flee and live another day. At this point in the fight they may as well finish what they started, or die trying. Heck, if they did win maybe he could get something for Onyx's armor. Even with his own personal call to action out of the way there were others, namely Link, who were struggling to get into the fight. Demoko was doing a decent enough job in holding back Onyx yet there was no way he could win alone, everyone would have to pitch in. What more could he offer though? All he had was water and ice, and already those had proven not to do much against this behemoth of a man. Looking at his water pouch uncertainly Caelan jumped a bit hearing the crackling of lightning, confused as to where it was coming from for a second. In a brilliant show Demoko managed to bring Onyx down to his knees, electrocuting him to the point of utter paralysis. While great it hardly ensured their victory, and he was almost afraid even this tactic would fail. In a quick turnaround then Link finally found himself and began issuing orders to everyone, sounding more ready for the fight than before. So that was his part, just douse Onyx in water? Easy enough, but would it harm Demoko? Looking at the mechanical man Caelan only deliberated for a second, figuring that their ally knew the risks if there were any. Nodding to himself he channeled the last bit of his magic reserves and pulled out a stream of water, dousing Onyx quickly as well as Demoko. Should he freeze it as well, help hold Onyx in place? Shaking his head he finished his part of the job, stopping the flow as his body sagged some from exhaustion.

"We can have a look around any time, so we're going to wait for you first, then look around," Takeshi explained, "Besides, you probably want to see it too, don't you? The city? We may as well all go look around together, more fun that way." Probably a little safer too, though he wasn't really concerned about anyone being nasty to them here. If there was anyone that might be a bad person though then they'd want to hurt T'charrl, and that was all the more reason for them to stick around with him. So... Just where was this city exactly? From the air they hadn't seen anything and now that they had landed it was still impossible to see. Wondering if it might perhaps be underground like T'charrl's he quickly had that theory kicked to the wayside, scratching at his head confused. "Makes sense... But I'd think we'd see the city then, you know? If it's above ground then it should be... Well, above ground, but we haven't seen anything yet." Maybe it was deeper in the forest and the musician just had them land here for safety. It wasn't such a bad idea, as landing too close when they were strangers might give off the wrong impression. Shu sounded all ready to get moving along, no surprise considering his usually hyper self. Smiling amused Takeshi rolled his eyes, reaching out and playfully poking his brother in the nose, "We know you love fruit, you're practically addicted to it. I'm sure if we're real nice or whatever they'll even give us some to eat." Because that's what they needed, another big meal of fruit... Takeshi didn't think all that much time had passed, and yet when he looked back in the direction the others had gone they were returning already. Interestingly it wasn't just Haku and the musician this time, but a group of four guards flanking them. Their friends didn't seem to be frightened or flustered which meant things had gone well, either that or they weren't trying to spook them. Either way they had their ticket into the city now, faster than they had expected too. Slipping off of the railing of the ship Takeshi smiled eagerly, going up ahead to meet the guards. They gave him a look and a small greeting, but passed him right on by as they went over to T'charrl. Blinking at being more or less passed by he looked over at the men annoyed, frowning before sniffing indignantly. "Real friendly, jerks didn't even say hello," he mumbled, folding his arms over his chest. "Uh... They're here to meet T'charrl, not us," Haku explained, rubbing at his head boredly, "They were nice enough in the city, but they're busy and need to get back to work, so they're kind of in a hurry." It had been a really nice city too, he'd wanted to stay and look around but the musician had insisted they go back for the others. A bit annoying, the guards were coming to fetch them anyways so what were they needed for? Slipping his hands into his pockets and kicking a small rock to the side he let out a sigh, looking at Shu curiously as he came over. Heh, maybe he finally had something to talk about with the other boy, maybe. "The city is nice, you'll like it," he said, frowning for a second before rubbing his head awkwardly. "It's... Um... Well you'll see, it's all stuff you'll like, I think." It wasn't that the guards didn't want to speak with the Saiyans, they just didn't have time. Lax as the kingdom may be they tried to keep to their schedules, and right now they were meant to be taking routes on the city, not greeting foreigners. If there truly was a Prince among these people however that made a slight exception to that, and lo and behold the information wasn't wrong. It had been a long time since any foreigner had come to the city, even longer since a ruler had at that, and to think it was one from a war-torn kingdom. Approaching T'charrl the four men stopped shy of the ship, one approaching it and smiling up at the young Prince. "Hello there, Prince T'charrl, yes? We're here to escort you back to the palace, if you'd like. Word has already been sent to His Majesty and I know he'll be excited to see you and your friends."

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

Takeshi didn't much mind waiting with T'charrl on the ship, it wasn't like they were in any big rush anyways. He'd much rather stay at his brother's side than go running off with the musician anyways, and Shu probably wasn't up for going on a trip just yet. Hopefully the little guy perked up some once they were actually in the city, he was pretty low energy and glum right now. Hearing what Shu had to say he smiled slightly, not so certain how to go about answering that. Technically their mother did abandon them, but they didn't know why that was; their father could have forced her to or something bad may have happened. Whatever the case was Takeshi liked to think they hadn't just been outright abandoned and they might see her again sometime. "I'm sure mom wants to see us, don't be silly. We just have to find her, I doubt she knows where we are," he said confidently with a nod, "I mean look at us, we're flying through space, you know? If she's just a human there's no way she could know where we've gone." Watching as Haku and the musician flew off Takeshi found himself a seat on the rails, content to wait for the guards or someone to come get them. T'charrl didn't sound to thrilled about their hanging around though, probably worried he was inconveniencing them or whatever. Smiling over at their friend he gave a dismissive wave of his hand, placing both then on the rail as he swung his legs idly. "We can explore when you're all set too, the city's not going anywhere. We're not going to leave you alone buddy." Besides, T'charrl was pretty much the only guy these people would probably know, so wandering off on their own without him was going to just cause all sorts of headaches. It would be cool too to share the whole experiencing the city for the first time with their friend, it wasn't like any of them had been here before. "So what do you guys think it's like? The city?" Takeshi asked, glancing in the direction the others had gone, "It looks like it's all hidden away, maybe it's underground like yours T'charrl? Or maybe it's really just hidden, I want to know. I hope it's cool!"

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

Takeshi didn't much know how Saiyan culture worked either, even with their time stuck on Kortal, nor did he care to learn. Unless those people made an immediate 180 and stopped being such jerks he was only going to take pride in the name of being a Saiyan, and not the people he was grouped with. There were a few people here and there who were alright, but it was hardly enough for either of them to say the Saiyans were good people. More important than that was trying to fill Shu in on who actually mattered, namely himself and all of their friends. Jerks like their father and his men weren't worth worrying about, and the only thing they would ever be good for were a punching bag. "Just look at it the way I do, it's easier. Our dad is some jerk and he doesn't matter, our mom is probably really nice so we want to meet her. Our friends are kind of our family too, and those are the people we want to be with, you know? Only worry about people who you like and like you, everyone else isn't worth the energy." There was so much more to be spending their time on right now anyways, like going to meet some new king. Now that they were landing it was only a matter of time until they headed off into the city; the King probably had no idea they were coming but hopefully that wasn't a problem. Holding the railing as the ship settled Takeshi smiled, leaping up onto the rails and taking a seat on them. "How about we stay here with T'charrl? We'll go into the city with him, since it looks like those two are heading off," he said to Shu, nodding over to Haku and the musician. Haku had nothing else to do, and he was every bit as curious to see what this hidden city would look like. Already this world had way more trees on it than even Earth had, certainly more than Kortal, so everything was a new experience for him. Maybe if he went on ahead with the musician he'd have something to talk about too, maybe actually strike up a conversation with the others for a change. Why T'charrl had to warn him against being mean he didn't know, and it was a little annoying honestly. "I won't be mean, relax, I'm not an idiot," Haku said defensively, marching over to the railing and flying up to meet the alien. "Just stick with it until we get back? Like he said, I doubt anyone's going to know how to fly the thing." If someone did take it then oh well, it wasn't as if they couldn't just fly back. Stealing something that out of place wouldn't be easy either way and no doubt someone was bound to notice if it took off suddenly from the landing zone. Looking over to the musician and giving a small nod Haku waited for him to take the lead, flying off after him promptly as they made their way towards the city. If the guards here ended up being jerks then there wasn't a really good chance he'd behave as T'charrl had warned, but they'd cross that bridge when they got to it.

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"I'm sure they have food Shu, they have to eat too," Takeshi said with a smirk, "I bet if we ask nicely or whatever they'll give us something, if they're half as nice as this guy is making them out to be." It would be a big change of pace if these folks actually turned out to be nice, most everyone they met nowadays were real assholes. Hopefully their homes weren't like what Shu was describing his to be, made all of sticks and leaves. If they were that primitive or simple then he wasn't so sure he wanted any of their foods. Glancing over at his brother he raised an eyebrow, reaching out and ruffling Shu's hair with a small laugh. "Yumi thinks you're cute with or without the hair, just because you're little. And who cares what our dad thinks? He's a jerk, I don't even waste energy thinking about him, he's not worth the trouble. Let's just focus on being here and having fun, you know?" Their dad probably thought nothing good of them and that was fine, Takeshi couldn't find it in himself to care. He had family and friends around him now, people whose opinions he valued and those were the ones he would bother concerning himself with. "You're my little brother, and everyone's friend, and a Saiyan-human... Monkey... Kid... Just remember the first two and you'll do fine!" Ah, the musician hadn't considered people following behind them. As he'd looked around on the way here however he'd not noticed anyone following along. Granted he was a simple musician, not someone trained in tracking someone or keeping an eye on them. If someone had indeed tried following and he was the lookout then there may be someone here, but the company in which he was kept didn't make him very worried about that. "You're a strong boy, and your friends seem strong too. Anyone who tries to hurt you won't have an easy time of it! We'll be careful, and the guards will keep you safe in the city, so do not worry Prince." No one would be harmed under His Majesty's roof, and the city was fairly secure for where it was located. Watching as the anchor dropped out and landed on the turf with a thud the musician smiled sympathetically, glancing back over at T'charrl. "I don't feel that way but I understand. Just know you're among friends here, and no one will do you harm. I'm sure the King will do everything in his power to make your stay a nice one, so please do try to enjoy yourself! Also... I'm thinking it might be best if I go ahead a bit, just to see if there are guards coming. I can explain to them who you are and we'll escort you to the palace, if that's okay?" Haku didn't mind the idea of heading up on ahead much either as he was getting bored just sitting around constantly. The city probably wasn't all that far off and they would end up sitting more at the palace, but he'd leap at the chance to move around even if only for a moment. The Princes were preoccupied chatting away between themselves and the musician might want an escort himself, just to be safe. Haku hadn't seen anyone tailing them on their way here but you couldn't be too careful, especially not when you figured soldiers here knew how to hide and stay out of sight. "I'll bring you to the city, if you want. I've got nothing else to do," Haku offered, shrugging as he looked towards the ever-approaching ground. "Unless you want to just go ahead on your own, that's fine too. I don't care either way." What an odd way of asking to tag along, the boy could have just said it outright. The need for an escort when so close to the city really wasn't needed, but if the boy wanted to play the part then far be it from him to deny that. "I suppose someone should come along, just so I have proof that we have visitors," he mused, tapping his chin with his thumb. Not expecting it to happen to soon the musician then gasped when the ship abruptly touched the ground, stumbling and near falling over in the process. It wasn't necessarily a rough landing but an unexpected one, and it showed in his trying to right himself. Smiling sheepishly at being surprised he chuckled, spreading his wings and simply flying off of the airship, hovering just beyond it. "Shall we then?"

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"I don't mean the city is literally a secret, it's just hidden. You know... Not sticking out like T'charrl's city does?" It didn't make a whole ton of sense why a city might be hidden, especially not if it was peacetime and the ruler was such a nice guy and all. Maybe there was something more to it they didn't know about, Takeshi was going to have to ask out of curiosity. Come to think of it too how did someone even live in a tree? You couldn't actually live in one like a squirrel, people were way too big. These were big trees and all, but surely they didn't burrow into them. Maybe some kind of tree house thing, though again he was hard pressed to imagine that too. "Really? So you just slept in a tree, with nothing but leaves?" Takeshi asked, frowning as he gave Shu a funny look. No wonder the little guy had been so awed when he was given the couch to sleep on, that was high class compared to a mossy, hard branch. No more sleeping in trees in the rain for Shu, they had a house now and he was going to have to get used to living there. Sure, they could go camping if he wanted to get back to nature or whatever, but even then they were going to bring a tent or something. Too many creepy crawlies at night to sleep in the open, Takeshi wanted no part of that. The musician saw no reason to fear the vehicle being stolen, and it wasn't as though it was something that could be stolen easily. Even if someone knew how to get into it and actually pilot the vessel they would surely be noticed, and he and the Prince could fly. Er... Not that he would give chase, but surely the guards would as well. He had heard that these visitors of theirs could fly too, but they had no wings or anything that would suggest such a thing. He couldn't see a reason for them to lie about that and yet it was impossible to believe without seeing. "If someone figures out how to pilot this I think they deserve to take it," the musician joked lightly, "It will be fine. Theft is hardly a problem here, and we're very courteous to visitors." Watching as the field drew ever nearer he smiled excitably, rather eager to return home and share his story with others. He might leave out the part of being roughed up by the guards, as everything else on his trip was just fine and happy. Swaying slightly when the airship came to a halt in midair he looked back at the Prince, tilting his head curiously at his decision. "Hm, we can wait then, yes. I don't see any problem with that," he agreed, smiling, "And as I said, we're a very courteous people here, we won't treat you poorly without just cause, and even then we try to be lenient. If any holes are made I'm sure someone will be able to help fix it up."

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"I have no idea where he is, I don't know where anyone is down there... Or anything," Takeshi said, frowning as he narrowed his eyes, "It's got to be hidden somewhere, maybe that's it. It could be some secret city, sort of like how T'charrl's is underground, you know?" That was the only logical explanation here, there were no buildings or anything for them to see. Tilting his head in confusion he glanced back at Shu, shrugging his shoulders before smirking. "I don't know, maybe they're just weird? Maybe it's something in the water? You're asking the wrong guy buddy." Someone could probably give them some long winded, convoluted explanation explaining exactly why the leaves were a certain color, and why they were all so big and whatever but he didn't particularly care. Overhearing what was being said about the city Takeshi raised an eyebrow, peering back down at the trees and leaning over the rails slightly. "City in the trees, huh? Sounds cool," he mumbled with a smile, "Maybe they'll like you Shu, since you lived in the trees and all. I bet their city is a little nicer than... Er... What the heck did you use to live in? Or did you just sleep in a tree all plain and with nothing?" Setting down in that field shouldn't be an issue, no one had used it for some time now. They cycled through fields after all to keep fertility high, and while he hardly kept track of that information he remembered it'd been put out of use just last year, meaning it would be some time until it was used again. In short it was just a patch of grass, no one would be offended if they landed there. Feeling quite excited at returning home the musician smiled up at T'charrl, not worrying as much as the Prince was by a long shot. "No one will steal it, I promise! Even if someone did try I doubt they could fly it either," he remarked, chuckling to himself, "And they'll believe me, I would have no reason to lie to them, yes? Just be at ease young Prince, you're amongst friends here!" You really needed to do something quite nasty to be scrutinized in this kingdom, and thankfully the number of malicious people here were few and far between. Something like what had happened in Eslaria's kingdom was unheard of here, at least it had been for a good many years. Bracing somewhat as the ship began to descend towards its destination the musician eased himself over towards the edge again, looking around curiously to see if anyone was coming their way. "Do we wait here for someone to arrive, or just go ahead into the city? I don't imagine it'll cause any problems if we go and explain ourselves."
