I was going to call it a night after I passed 36k but I am now closer to 37k and am unwilling to stop when I am sooooo close.




The focus switches over to the Windwalkers and is hopping back and forth between them. The Windwalker mc is named Nami and she rides(is partnered with) this huge bird that looks in my mind's eye like an Osprey only much larger. Now this is rough so please pardon the suckedness....



She stared out west and urged Giesha higher. The air was thin but the view was spectacular. Nami closed her eyes and unhooked her feet from the foot straps and 'lifted' herself off of her partner's back. The wind whipped at her, caressing her like a lover. She stared across the horizon, seeing more than she'd ever dreamed possible. In the distance, to the north west, she saw the rising plume of dark smoke and several gaey smudges in the water. The islands. She lowered herself slowly, keeping a tight reign on her powers. A mistake this high up, where the air was thin but the view unequaled, could result in her death.

Breathing was becoming an issue and she was glad to feel Giesha's feathers brushing her legs. She released her powers, gasping from the effort (or was it the lack of air?) and clutched the great bird's harness as Giesha pulled her wings tightly against her body, dropping so suddenly that Nami, used to the birds' antics, gave a shrill yell and curse, holding on for her life as Giesha plummeted towards the shoreline. Then her wings spread and she was soaring higher and higher. Nami pressed her face against the bird's neck and struggled to keep her composure, her heart pounding in her ears.

Nice. I'd like to read through your entire story to see how everything fits together.

me too lol!

I'm not sure how it will fit together. We shall see.

I'm not sure when I'll be getting around to edit this puppy but I'll keep you in mind for beta-ing it if you want.
