It took a week to prepare the Wings of Freedom and test all they could. Theoretically, everything should work but the conditions those assumptions had been made under did not include the breakdown of the Laws.
It took 2 days just to recalculate to the best of their ability for that alone!
Hope would possibly protect them for the duration but Lind did not assume that would be enough. She was only a Sun Tier and if any scrap of the ship's own power could save her life, he would exhaust all options.
It was not totally fruitless.
Lind had been able to modify the structural support systems to resonate with Hope's Qi. It had the unexpected result of making them stronger to his senses.
The issue was he did not understand why that was true, he could only see the result.
There was just no time. It always came back to that damnable issue of time.
