Bertrand's Introduction to Avangard

Posted Nov 20, 2022, 3:32:38 AM UTC

Finding his bearings with his elemental powers, Bertrand passed through a rippling portal of sapphire, amethyst and aquamarine, crossing into a completely different world.  There he boarded a most elequent airship, crafted in gold and primed umber.  Admittedly he was slightly nervous about this trip, not because of the idea of travelling thousands of feet up high, but of the uncertainty of the land he was going to.  He assured himself that this will not be too bad, but he still could not help but ponder what could happen.  His thoughts are broken by the pilot asking him to confirm if he was sure Avangard was where he wanted to go.  Pushing his newfound anxieties into the back of his mind, the doctor answers "Of course I'm sure."

In the air now, Bertrand leans on the siderails gazing at the clouds below while the pilot steers the ship inside the deck with a telescope for sight.  Just as he was about to overthink his future whereabouts, a sleek purple airship whipped past, going the opposite way at breakneck speed.  Anxiety turned curiousity, the doctor wondered whereabouts the other ship was going in such a hurry, if going anywhere at all.  Mayhaps he can ask around when he officially arrives in Avangard?

I had intended this to be a part of Prompt 1 of Avangard.  I forgot about the city, and I apologise.  I hope this still qualifies.  The next prompt may be of my character bumping into some constructs in the city?  I'm not sure yet.

If this was not was I supposed to do, I apologise.  I am an idiot.  Also please excuse my terrible writing skills above.

(Copy-pasted prompt so admins know which one I went for:)

Prompt #1 - Soujel Aircity

Avangard’s population lives solely in fleets of airships that sail the planet’s skies. The largest of these ships is the informal capital, Soujel. The ship is decked in ornate golds and reds, and is visible from an incredible distance thanks to the constant display of lights on its hull. These ships are designed to drift high above the clouds. The skies above the airship cities are always crystal clear. Draw or write your character arriving on an airship. The submission must include your character and a red and gold airship.
