The test flight was a success but revealed a few key issues that needed addressing before they truly set out. Lind had to sleep for a week before he was up for fixing what only he could.
He was then exhausted once more but did not delay launch. Wen already had the heading to follow and the crew would be getting used to flying anyway.
Lady Esmerelda had chosen to stay behind to help guide the hybrids and dragons that would live on the dry dock.
The Wings of Freedom could only take about 150 people in total even though it was fairly large.
It all mattered little as the grim voyage had to start. The crystals lit up on all 4 fins as well as the living section of the ship to get it going.
They were flying at 15% speed to start to push the systems slowly and compensate for any issues that cropped up but it all went smoothly.
Lind was resting on his simple bed in quarters that were pretty much identical throughout the ship.
