--was still just as easy as it was last time. Now that he was expecting it, the shudder and sudden launch hadn't taken him by surprise, and he rode it with some ease as it took to the air. Imuiel remembered this from the first time he'd attempted this flight, and it soothed his nerves somewhat, a property that he was hoping would keep up throughout the entirety of his second flight attempt.
There was that gentle voice again, and he felt the peace and joy settle over him like a warm blanket. So far, so good. If he could keep this up, he might actually land on that island again.

Anger. That hadn't happened last time, and it caught him entirely by surprise, shaking Imuiel and momentarily causing him to reconsider this flight. The voice was shouting this time, and he urged it silent, cringing as it continued to bellow its fury at him. He just had a bit more to go, but was it worth it now?

This flight was much easier, he managed to get the glider to land on the island. he dropped down to the ground the landing harder than the launching.
There were more totems, but he had reached his goal. He reached out an touched one of the glowing orbs, enjoying it's warmth. And then he was back on the main land.

The voice came once more, accompanied by a gout of fog that obscured his vision. He was confused, more than a bit disconcerted--and then everything was fire, and an irrational panic boiled up in him, only magnified by the screams. It felt as if everything was unraveling, from himself to the entire world around him-- Imuiel felt his glider twist out of control, starting to plummet before he regained his mastery over it with a short, stifled cry.
That definitely hadn't happened last time.

Amati hadn't spent much time at World's Edge, but she found that she liked it more than either of the other areas. Something about the free and open sky intrigued her and made her happy, though she couldn't explain why. The birds reflected in everything at the edge of the cliffs made her feel almost at home, and when she saw the promising glow of blessings out in the distance, she couldn't resist.
She inspected one of the gliders, examining all of its parts and trying to figure out how it worked. Eventually, she discovered a mechanism that turned, the only thing on it that seemed to move. She spun it around and around until it started offering her resistance, and then let go. She laughed, clear and bright, as she was launched into the air.
When the water faded from view, Imuiel knew he was close. Though offput and shaken, he kept on, having understood full well that he couldn't turn back now. All he could do was fly forward and hope that this leg of his journey went smoother than the last.

His glider tilted against his will, and Imuiel frantically straightened it back out, lurching hard to the right as he evened it once more. This was just as rough as the first time, though it seemed to be a bit more so--perhaps that was just because he'd been rattled by prior events. He wasn't going to analyze it right now, anyway. He had more important things to be focusing on than that; like...actually piloting his glider, for one!

A burst of cool air chilled Imuiel to the bone, and he set his jaw tighter, gripping the glider with a white-knuckle hold. There were so many islands, and they littered the skyline like so many motes of dust--there was only one that he was interested in, and Imuiel steered his glider to point directly at it, keeping his eyes on the prize.

The glider seemed to be holding steady in the air, but it was pointed in the wrong direction; she would miss the glowing island entirely if she kept this course. She didn't see any other controls though, even when she leaned over a little to see if there was anything on the outside of the glider--oh! That seemed to work. The glider shifted with her weight, and she felt happy in the open air.
Though the winds weren't playing nice this time, Imuiel was resolved to stay his course, battling the gusts as they came. It was difficult to keep on the same path in these conditions, but he was managing fairly well, doing his best to accommodate for each swift change in the air.

It was so close now, and he prepared himself for the impact before he knew it would happen. He felt good about this now that the looming ill from before had seemingly faded away, and he kept his eyes open this time, watching as the island drew nearer and nearer to him, growing larger by the second.
With a rough crunch, Imuiel's glider landed.

As Amati flew deeper into the fog, she thought she smelled something strange. She turned around to see what it might be and found that the glider was on fire. There was nothing she could do; there was only the glider between her and the empty air, and as the flames crept onto the wings, it became apparent that there would soon be even less than that. She twisted and turned, trying to slap the flames out and rapidly losing elevation. Soon, the fire seemed to fade, though not through any efforts of her own. The flames suddenly died as she passed through the fog, and she struggled to right herself before she hit the ground.
As soon as Amati righted the glider, she became overwhelmed with fury. It was almost as if the sky itself was mad that she hadn't crashed to the ground. The happy feelings of only moments ago were gone, and she no longer felt welcome here.
Suddenly she was alone with the air again, not even the water beneath her to break her fall. She much preferred it this way, even if it made the glider a little more difficult to control. She put her weight into turning it towards the largest island, where the blessings waited.
