Captain Martina's Journal Entry from "The Tales of King Kogi" 👑🐷

King Kogi’s airship was caught up in a large gust of warm wind.  It was quite a peculiar feeling, your hair being whipped upwards and downwards, this way and that way, like a jellyfish bobbing on your head.  The warmer the wind, the higher up the ship was lifted. Bobbing further up, up, and above the towering purple rain clouds, the crew was still able to breathe with ease. King Kogi protected the ship daily with various scientific spells and charms.  A few crew members were pointing excitedly from the upper deck.  It was a rare sight indeed: several glittering Cloudbunny nests, tucked on the top of the mint clouds. A small Cloudbunny floated over and perched on the ships’ railing closest to me. It was nearly invisible to the eye, its wispy fur blending in with the colours and textures of the pink and mint clouds behind it. The clouds below were nearly out of rain, so the airship began to descend and with that, the Cloudbunny was gone.

King Kogi's airship bounced gently through the night sky.  Watching from the balcony of his castle, the clouds around him were piled up high in soft fluffy mounds of pastel pink and blue. Soundlessly, the ship drifted through the middle of a large cloud.  The air around him turned hazy and pink. Tiny beads of moisture began to form on the railings and on the deck of the ship below. The patch of grass outside his castle was covered in dew drops.  As the strange airship emerged from the cloud, the moon became clear in the night sky once again.  The droplets caught the light and for a moment, tiny rainbow dots sparkled and glittered all over the ship. King Kogi smiled at the beautiful sight before him.  Lapan was truly a beautiful and magical land. The airship picked up speed and the tiny droplets disappeared in the breeze.

The Airship

Captain Martina's Journal Entry from "The Tales of King Kogi" 👑🐷

It was a gorgeous evening aboard the airship.  The starlight was glittering like flecks of rainbow as it filtered through the holographic balloon suspended above me.  The soft paper lanterns strung all over the ship were at full brightness tonight. The moon was huge and clear, casting enough moonlight to fully charge the lunar batteries on King Kogi’s airship.  The unusual airship was powered via lunar and solar energy, and it was propelled along by the wind currents.  The airship blew this way, and drifted that way.  When we needed to dock for supplies, we had the means to steer, but it was written in The Code of King Kogi to drift on the wind-currents until we spotted a new village, town, or region to visit. 

The sky had faded from pastel lavender to blue.  Last week, while refilling at Creamberry Docking Station, I met some excited tourists.  They were enjoying a local favourite: deep-fried waffles filed with wild Creamberry fluff, and were marveling at our gradient skies.  A pastel sunset is a common sight to behold within the land of Lapan, but it served as a good reminder to appreciate all that is around me.  

Last week we met two locals while drifting.  Bear and Bunny were on their way home from an adventure in space.  King Kogi granted them docking privileges and the crew helped tether their rocket ship to our much larger airship.  King Kogi greeted them and exchanged a few records he had picked up in Big Love City for a dozen jars of super rare homemade Stardrop Jam.  He shared it with the crew during breakfast, and I ate it on toasted bread and butter.  It was absolutely scrumptious.
