I recommend taking closer looks to the Airships of the Aetherblade and inspecting the Airship at Fort Trinity, so you can Imagine the Airships better.
Fire from the Sky
The Air was dusty and cold as Tailen breathed in heavily. This wasn’t the first time he flew over the Crystal Desert, but it was certainly the first time he did it with Thousands of Dragon Minions to his feet and an entire Airship Fleet on his command. The sun had fallen behind the horizon hours ago, leaving everything in a uneasy darkness, only the stars in the sky seemed calm, observing the fight with interest. Tailen looked up, nervous, but ready for battle. He took a deep breath again to calm himself, align with the stars.
“Captain! We’ve reached the battle grounds and Kralkatorriks minions are nearly in range for the Bolter!”, Tailens Asura first mate Tecca shouted from inside of the ship.
“Get the Airships in Arrow formation, I want them to stay mobile and aware of the sky, we don’t know where Kralkatorriks Lieutenants are!”, Tailen shouted back, now fully concentrated.
“Aye Aye, Captain!”, Tecca ordered a white furred Charr to spread the order with the Inquest Communication System.
“Bolter in range, Sir”, the Gunner at the Control Panel of the Asuran Cannon floating above the Front Deck of the Airship said to Tailen, who stood at very front of the Front Deck, scouting out in the dark with strained eyes.
“Tecca! Turn the Ship starboard, but order the Fleet to stay on route!”.
“Acknowledged, Captain!”, The steering wheel was larger than the little Asura, but she never had problems turning the ship. She jumped, grabbed the wheel and pulled it down with her entire weight. Tailen didn’t give her the post for her physical abilities after all.
The Light Airship turned right smoothly in a matter of seconds and the Bolter Cannon had free field of fire.
“Cannon ready, Capt’n”, the Gunner said.
“Fire in the middle of the Horde to let them know we’re there”, Tailen commanded.
As an answer, the big, floating cannon fired a huge energybolt through the sky, it’s explosion illuminating the night on impact.
“Indirect hit, Sir, several kills”, the Gunner reported.
“Get her nose up north again and take Air of the Balloon, The fleet is going down to the action!”.
The Airship Fleet turned on their red lights and slowly moved towards the ground. 15 Ships emerged from the night sky, the glowing red coming closer. Captain Thackeray’s heart jumped at the sight. His friend did show up after all. He smiled for a second, then turned serious again and shouted with renewed courage.
“Our reinforcements are here! Maintain the defense and we’ve driven them off with the first daylight!”.
“This is too much, even for the vigil”, Tribune Brimstone grunted, meeting Logans eyes in the damp light of torches.
