>>6201243>"Well thanks. My name's Joey Donuts."You offer your hand, and he takes it. He's a large man but his hands, even through a gauntlet are very gentle.
<span class="mu-i">"Dalton Skygarry."</span>
He smiles again.
>"Maximum takeoff weight of 5515kg WITH vertical take off or without?"Dalton shrugs.
<span class="mu-i">"Only done vertical take-offs so far. With experimental tilt-wing technology it was our focus. It's only her third flight, truth be told."</span>
>>6201172<span class="mu-i">""While the explosion was impressive, it seems evident that the devastation inflicted upon the island by the Rampart was far greater of the two. Do you think practical applications could be developed based on the mechanisms She uses to produce such results?"</span>
Dalton shrugs and does a small laugh.
<span class="mu-i">" Strictly speaking AGST2, or The Rampart, as you call her is an unconfirmed quantity. I don't *personally* doubt you, based on both the devastation of the cliffs here AND the precise 3-inch-wide gouges left on the rocks here. But to recreate her sort of power and devastation would require 1. Confirmation of her existence by an authoritative scientific body and 2. Studying her, which would most likely necessitate her capture."</span>
Dalton spreads his hands and does a non-committal gurn.
<span class="mu-i">"Me? I'm happy to leave her alone. Figure out things on our own. I'm more concerned with the more constructive and explorative aspects of technology. I think we've got sufficient technology and magic to destroy the planet seven times over already."</span>
>>6200890>">Anything you've spotted so far that we might be interested in?"<span class="mu-i">"Probably. But we're keeping it heh heh. That's salvage for you. I'm just guessing, though. I have no idea what you're interested in."</span>
He gestures at your party.
<span class="mu-i">"Besides collecting one of each, I suppose."</span>
>>6200878>"You seem to have things well in hand, but I don't suppose there is anything we could help within our capacity as adventurers?"Dalton thinks
<span class="mu-i">"I don't think so. Assuming anything hostile is still alive on this island we're all carrying decent hardware. Even if there's draugr around. I suppose if you find any tech or ancient scrolls you don't understand we'll gladly take them off you."</span>
Dalton thinks. He keeps looking at Burstock
<span class="mu-i">"Sorry this is gonna sound crazy, but you're not a healer are you?"</span>
Burstock nods
<span class="mu-b">"No, I am."</span>
Dalton laughs a little.
<span class="mu-i">"Okay well, in the unlikely event we DO get hurt beyond what our medkits can do. I guess a heal would be great. We'd pay for it."</span>
Burstock shrugs.
<span class="mu-b">"Don't worry about it. It's on the house with me."</span>
Dalton tilts his head and smiles
<span class="mu-i">"Yeah? Cool."</span>
