“HEY EVERYONE, WELCOME BACK. It’s been a few hours traveling with our associate and her crew. Making good time towards our clandestine locale! We’ve got uhh — that guy. And that guy. And that gal…” Patrick swings the camera around at seemingly random, zooming in on the suited and helmeted faces of some of the people around them. Their ages and backgrounds range wildly, but each of them looks ready for anything the Red throws at them.

A surprising number of them look young, in their teenage years.

Almost all of them are riding dragons of various sizes, shapes, and colors, but he and Charlie are seated in the cramped space of some kind of very small lochsled. It’s being pulled by a sandy brown and teal colored dragon, who in turn is carrying a rider in a black suit on its back.

“And of course, we’ve got ME—” He turns the camera on himself long enough to give a winning smile. “—And we’ve got Charlie Dejaro, lochsled extraordinaire on the scene, anything to input, Charlie?”

The camera turns to Charlie, who isn’t paying attention to him. Her eyes are on the sled, marveling at its construction.

He swings the camera back to himself. “She does not. She’s still doing nerd stuff.”
