Finally he managed to get it launched into the air.

Flying through the air, Andie breathed in deep then started to listen to the wisps. Nervousness hit him in that next moment and his grip on the glider tightened.

Moving it closer it only got blown off course again and she struggled to keep it steady. The winds were getting the better of her and it buffeted her again and again with the cold water of the waterfall. Shivering from the cold she glared back to the islands again.

The nervousness melted away to a soothing emotion next and he relaxed again.

Finally moving through the fog the glider came down slowly, but shakily. It swayed from side to side as she made the landing and she came down on the side, sliding down from it and staring at the shrine. "Ugh." She dusted herself off then shook a bit to get some water off, then made a small smile as she skipped her way into the shrine.
A single orb remained shining and she looked at it, turning to take a look back into the fog filled sky. It had been beautiful though she had almost died each time. Taking hold of the orb she tried to log the memories of the trip and when she opened her palm she was back on the cliffs, staring into the distant sky at the island she had been on moments before.
Would she miss this? Mel'ae wasn't sure, but the blessing had made her feel a little more whole.

The light emotions faded and were replaced by nervousness again though. Andie kept his eyes up so he didn't have to look down and make it worse.

Finally he was passed the wisps but now was out where the wind was at it's fiercest. He gripped the glider tight, his own nervousness this time making him worried.

Halfway there and the wind was trying it's hardest to knock Andie from the sky.

Andie forced his breathing to be even and deep, even as the wind picked up even more.

Unfortunately his efforts were in vain again and he plummeted from the sky.

Zanna decided to approach one of the challenges set forth, taking in a deep breath. She had not attempted this before, and had no idea where to start in this particular task. There seemed to be a glider in front of her, though she did not know how she should use it.
There was a crank; perhaps that was involved?
Carefully, she stepped forward, winding the crank until it could not wind any tighter. Once it was tight enough, she positioned herself over the glider and attempted to settle herself onto it. There. That was correct, right? Time to get herself into the -- AIR!
Zanna gasped as she heard a rather loud pop, the tension leaving the machine nearly throwing Zanna off it.
... Okay, that was clearly wrong...

Perhaps she should try ... not winding it up so tightly?
Zanna attempted another wind of the crank, winding it so it did not yet stop, but winding it significantly enough there seemed to be some tension in the wings. There, that would work. She grinned at the accomplishment, moving to set herself on the glider, hoping that this time, it would support her weight without popping and throwing her off.
It trembled, and she couldn't help gulping nervously. Had that been the wrong choice?
It was a stressful moment that ticked by, but her lips stretched into a wide grin when she discovered that it was not, in fact, the end of her attempts. The wind which caught her glider threw both her and the glider in the sky successfully, allowing Zanna to glide through the clouds. Victorious, Zanna gave a loud woop, flying off to the next step of the exercise.

Zanna was not entirely sure how she was supposed to control this thing now that she was actually up in the air, and looked around rather frantically to figure out where the controls were.
Oh, there weren't any?
... Interesting.
The more Zanna shifted around in an attempt to find them, though, the more she realized that she was the control. She, herself, seemed to be directly impacting the way this glider was going. Alright, she could do that. If she wanted to get up there, she just needed to move her body so she got up there, right?
Unfortunately, her vision was overtaken by something else.
Her glider was on fire. It was on fire! Zanna screamed, losing control of the glider in her panic as she attempted to figure out what she was supposed to do about the spreading fire on the glider. She was going to die! There was screams surrounding her, too, drawing a scream from the terrified Zanna as she plummeted downwards.
When the vision left her, she suddenly yanked the glider back upwards, attempting to get herself back under control. The glider ... was fine? What was that?

This time, she felt more steady. She could handle this. She was not going to drop beyond her own ability to recover. Zanna felt more courage, now, as she gained more control over her flight.
Nothing around her was on fire, and the illusion of that was silly. She would be okay. There was nothing to fear except the drop below her that would send her to an untimely injury or death--
No, Zanna, stop. She was alright. She was not going to die.
The courage filled her, even as she let herself look down at the view she could barely make out. She knew she was descending, but it was a descent she was in control of. She knew what she was doing, and Zanna Kosa would get herself through this obstacle course just fine.
