"Yay I'm flying like a dragon!!!! " Liela followed behind not taking a glider and instead just flew.

[Crimson Skies]

Ivona took a glider and went after them. Ayah followed soon after.

"So, do you guys know where to go?" There were big islands in the distance, as well as what looked like tornadoes.

[Dogy9978]

"I have no idea where to go but I know where not to go, those tornados."

[Crimson Skies]

"The islands right in front of us maybe?" Ivona asked. "What can I say, it's no empirical science, I'm a simple gal."

[Dogy9978]

Liela laughed "Oh yeah sorry. That would be the place we go."

[Crimson Skies]

The group reached the big island and when they landed, they appeared to be in the outskirts of a small town.

[Dogy9978]

Lillith actually crashed into the ground. Liela laughed really hard. "You really nailed the landing there Lillith."

[Crimson Skies]

Ayah helped her up. "And here I though cats always land on their feet. Some cat you are."

[Dogy9978]

"I'm an ink demon not a cat!!! Just because I look like one doesn't mean I am one! I don't even do things cats do!" Lillith began to walk. "Well you do purr..."

[Crimson Skies]

Ivona decided to cut in. "Do you know real hawks can fly?"

Ayah looked at her, giving her a face that spelled out 'How could you do this, I trusted you'.

"I... I was born wrong. We were dirt poor."

The small rural town had many farms and a single docking station for airships.

[Dogy9978]

"Well at least you're not born blind." Lillith said walking towards the station.

[Crimson Skies]

Some guy in a uniform was taking money and handing out tickets to would-be passenging of an airship. "And another sold! Who wants to travel? You sir? You madam? Perhaps you, young lady? Step right up to get your chance to soar through the skies in the magnificent Airbus 3000!"

[Dogy9978]

Liela walked closer. "I'm not from this dimension and I've never heard of your service. Is it good?"

[Crimson Skies]

"Of course! Safety and speed guaranteed. Low prices, too."

[Dogy9978]

"Really now..." Lillith said almost rolling her eyes. "What are the prices? Where does it transport to?"

[Crimson Skies]

"A single gold coin for travelling from one station to another!" The conductor explained happily.

A middle aged man spoke to them. "Yeah, but the system branches out. You can't, for example, use this station to get to a big city directly; you have to visit the smaller towns on the way."

[Dogy9978]

"Hmm very smart business move. Make the customer think it's cheap attracting more people but in reality by the time you get to the intended place, you've payed for the whole ride and then some. Who came up with that idea? If it was your boss than can you please tell me where I can find him. Such an understanding of business like that desreves praise."

[Crimson Skies]

"But, worry not! For just ten gold, you can buy a yearly pass that allows you to travel for free!"

The middle-aged man continued to talk to them. "Most of us earn eighty silver a month and a hundred is equal to one gold. Also, don't expect him to talk to you directly; he's just doing his job."

[Dogy9978]

"Wow this dimension is weird when it come to money. Don't you guys have dollars? " Liela took out a 20 dollar bill. "Gold gets heavy if you have too much so people from where I came from put the number of how much you have on green paper. The silver coins we have come in different shapes and sizes that prove there worth."

[Crimson Skies]

They just looked at her oddly, like she was making fun of one of their relatives.

[Dogy9978]

"Why are you guys looking at me like that? It's all true!!!" You could tell Liela was getting a little pissed. "Master, there is no use in explaining this to them. They probably think you're crazy." "Crazy?! No...crazy would be if I summoned this" Liela summoned a beam. "And then go around killing people!"

[Crimson Skies]

They still gave her the odd looks and did not say anything.

[Dogy9978]

"Grrrr!!! " She threw the beam close to the guys but not close enough to hurt them. "Stop looking at me like that!!! Freaking you guys are the worst!!! " And than she flew off in a whole other direction. Lillith looked at the guys. "I'm guessing you've never seen someone do that."

[Crimson Skies]

"Magic is forbidden," the middle-aged man explained. "It's the reason our world is like this."

[Dogy9978]

"Yikes...that really sucks. So then am I not allowed to be here. I mean I'm sort of a demon."
