Sheridan is a city of craftsmen. I know Christian likes fon machines, but I
can't believe how excited he's acting at a time like this. Oh well... In any
case, we need to find someone who knows something about that flying machine.
On a lookout, we found some old men and a woman all excited about
something. Apparently the "Highwind" crashed during a test flight... Wait, is
that the flying machine?! We'd better ask that old man Iemon about what's
going on.
Iemon said that the flying machine Highwind crashed in the Meggiora
Highlands, trapping its pilot inside. And with the strong wind gusts in the
Meggiora Highlands, it could fall down from the ledge it's on at any moment.
The pilot would die for sure, and we might even lose the hover drive, the
most important thing needed for flight. The hover drive is a fon machine
excavated from 2000-year-old ruins, and nobody knows enough about them to
make a new one today, so we'll have to recover that one or we'll have no way
to fly. We arranged to borrow the second Highwind, which is still under
construction, in exchange for recovering the pilot and the hover drive.
They'll take parts they need from the Tartarus and finish building the
Highwind II while we're gone. We won't be able to use the Tartarus after that,
but we don't have any other options.
Okay, let's get moving. We've got to get to the Meggiora Highlands soon,
or we'll lose both the pilot and the hover drive.
The Meggiora Highlands were swarming with monsters, just like the rumors
said.
In order to save the pilot of the unstable Highwind, we'll have to use
launcher devices to secure it from both sides. We don't have much time, so
we're going to split into two groups.
