The airship appeared, descending from the clouds above. The enormous piece of magical machinery slowly moved down, landing over the vast and empty grasslands. I could tell many people within the Port City were slightly surprised that something so big appeared out of the blue.
However, the people of our camp was even more surprised, everyone stopped doing what they were doing and rushed to the outside of the camp made of several tents, looking at the enormous behemoth of a machine landing over the grasslands.
It was an awe-inspiring sight for me and everyone else that has never seen an airship before. It amazed me to think of the great things that we would see in the future and excited me more about such a wonderful future ahead of us.
"It is a giant… thing that came from the sky.."
"Some sort of flying house?"
"It looks like a leather balloon."
"That's an airship, everyone." My mother said. "Everyone, we spoke about this some time ago, remember? Please pack everything so we can move over."
"Oh, the airship!"
"So that's an airship…"
"Incredible…"
The people of the amazon tribe and the demons we brought with ourselves commented a bit, as they quickly moved to their tents and started preparing everything to move out as quick as possible.
CREAAAAK…!
Meanwhile, the Airship's door opened, falling into the ground, and forming into metallic stairs. From within, the figure of someone covered on white clothes and several people wearing silver and white armor marched behind that figure.
My father, Aquarina's parents, and even Ninhursag with Zack, Celeste, Mist, Mary, and everyone else related with them came running at our side, seeing the sight of the enormous mechanical behemoth, and also of the mysterious person that emerged from it.
I quickly noticed it was a woman, she had a beautiful figure, like that of my mother, but slightly taller than her. Her wide hips and prominent chest quickly told me she was a beautiful woman. Her long blonde hair came out of her white clothes covering her face and most of her body, as the guards around her were wary, looking around everywhere.
They were wearing helmets for the most part, so I couldn't see their faces, but I could see their eyes. They seemed wary and slightly… angry? I guess they didn't liked coming all the way here.
My mother slowly walked towards the woman, stopping right at the side of a tree in the middle of the grasslands. The woman stopped walking as well, standing there.
She slowly began to walk, leaving her guards behind, as she slowly took off her veil, showing off the beautiful appearance she had. She resembled my mother way too much to not be related… her bright green eyes, her flawless face, her enchanting smile, everything was so similar to my mom.
"Faylen!"
The first thing she said was my mother's name, as she suddenly began running towards her.
"Hello Aina…"
My mother greeted her with a gentle smile, as Aina hugged her tightly and kissed her cheeks.
"You don't know how much I've missed you! We all have missed you!" Aina started to cry.
"I'm sorry for not coming home… I just wanted to be away… of everything. But now, I don't really have much of a choice. If I want my children to be raised in a safe place, I have to go. Sorry…" My mother seemed to have no other options.
"Don't be sorry. You will always be welcomed in your home, Faylen." Aina said, hugging my mother again. "My cute little sister, you've grown so much… You have children now, right? Wait! Right! L-Let me see them! I want to see them!"
"Hahaha, you're as impulsive as ever despite being my older sister." Sighed my mother. "Alright, come, I'll present you everyone."
The guards quickly followed mother and Aina… who was actually the older sister I've always heard about from my mother ever since I was like two years old. She was the one that always sent stuff to us through a teleportation magic and seems to be very close to my mother.
I guess she's my aunt.
As she walked towards us, her appearance came accompanied by an all-encompassing aura of life, nature, and mana. It was only comparable to my mother's own magic aura. I was taken aback, but yes, she was perhaps just as strong.
But without being able to get a blessing from a god… did she attained this strength purely out of talent and training over years? But how long? A thousand years or something?
Nonetheless, she held such a mystical aura within her that it felt as if she was the very embodiment of the forest itself.
"Everyone, this is my older sister, Aina. I've talked about her to all of you, but never really mentioned her name…" My mother sighed, smiling back at us. "I hope you can be open minded with her.
"A-Aina?!" My father asked. "So she's your older sister… Nice to meet you!"
My father quickly walked towards her.
"Red Hair and that amazing aura of fire! You must be the Hero of Blazing Blade, Allan! Your story has gone through the world. There's nobody back home that doesn't know you! Especially after… you married my sister." Aina sighed a bit. "I hope you know what you were getting into…"
"I am well aware…" My father sighed.
"Anyways, nice to meet you. I think I can trust you, your heart and your soul seem so honest, pure, and brave… I guess I can tell why my sister loves you." Said Aina with a gentle smile.
"E-Eh? You can read my heart and my soul?" My father felt slightly taken aback.
"It is easy, these eyes are very special."
Aina giggled, her eyes shone brightly, as I noticed that there were magic circles in the middle of her irises… Were those some sort of "Magic Eye"?
"Oh my… and this little baby must be your little boy? By the gods, he is so adorable!" Aina said, greeting Zephy.
