And posted. Hopefully duct tape will solve all their problems.
You forgot the WD-40, that's probably what you need to fix the ship :P

Can I ask what ships typically look like? Are they open deck, kinda like flying ships because I am been imagining them in the style of the ships from the anime Vanguard.
The anime was called Last Exile, I am an idiot. Vanguard was the name of the fighters they used for smaller craft.

As the rock aficionado, I can say that isn't the original and has been pitched to avoid a copyright strike.No real reason for me to point that out, but too late to stop me.
I noticed this aswell, I actually half expected it to be a remix and break out in a drumcore beat.
The commotion in the town square made Lena take pause as she peered between the buildings to see what was going on, someone was crawling put of tbe rubble of the destroyed town hall and too Lena's surprise she saw the mayor himself crawling out and getting on his own two feet. Mattaus had said he got blown straight through that place, she was honestly surprised to see he was alive. But his triumphant survival was about to be short lived as she watched the Commander who was a mage about to move his band in a cutting motion, a technique she recognized as she often used it herself in her own magic. It was about to he ended when suddenly all the soldiers stopped and turned, raising their rifles somewhere Lena could not see, she had to move to a better position and from there she saw a face she never thought she would see again, Weston was standing there, with those two massive swords on his back, Lena knew him from the League meeting she attended with her father. The man was at everyone and she could never forget him because of intimidating he looked but how kind he was to her when she was little. She was honestly surprised to see him here which meant that the freighter that crashed... she could not believe it, that was the Free Wind. There was no way these Crucible soldiers would be here otherwise. Great and now Weston was challenging the Commander, with how many soldiers there were she did not care how good Weston was, there was no way he could take on that many on his own. Thankful that she was so thin Lena squished herself between the buildings and down the small alley to cut towards the town square, she had no doubt that he could kill the commander easy but if those soldiers grew a pair and started shooting he was screwed.
Overlooking the town square a lone merc looked over the scene below, Mattaus lowered the telescopic sight on his rifle before slowly pushing himself back from the edge of the roof. He had just witness the commander of the Crucible soldier sent the mayor flying through the town hall, that meant he was some sort of mage, and also that this was not a good situation. Climbing back down the ladder he used to get up there he turned to Lena who had been waiting for him in the alley behind the buildings, keeping an eye out for any soldiers heading there way.
"Hey this is not good, the Crucible pukes got soldiers crawling all over the place, I dunno if we will be able to get through the town."
Lena held her chin with a gloved hand, coming up with a plan of action.
"Okay well going around will take too long, if I go alone I can maybe slip by unnoticed, you have to head back to the Missionary camp and warn them that the Crucible Navy is here, we both know their relationship with them and if they stick around they'll get kill.
"Okay, you be safe alright. I'll tell Thomas what is going on."
The black haired woman nodded and moved the the end of the alley, peeking around the corner she made sure the coast was clear before signalling Mattaus that he was clear to go, the boy ran past her and turned to head back to the Missionary camp, hopefully he would get there with enough time before the Navy found them, Lena meanwhile ran out to cut across the road to the next alley, being cautious so she did not draw any attention and hiding from the soldiers that came her way. It was not that hard to spot them coming when she was sneaking about, the pristine white jackets made those idiots easy to spot and gave her enough time to find someplace to hide, if she did get caught up some where she just stopped and hide her rifle behind her back, she looked like a civvie after all with most of her weapons hidden away under her clothing. It felt like slow going but really she was making much better time than she would have going all the way around the town and this also gave her a chance to assess the strength of forces present in the town, though that mage Mattaus mentioned sounded like he would be a lot of trouble. Lena had never told her merc buddies she was a mage herself but she had no idea if her own power could measure up to that of the commander.

Weeeeeee need peoples to post
Lena snored as she leaned back in her chair, feet propped up on the table while she was standing "guard" at the entrance to the missionary camp. Really it did not matter if she was awake or not, behind her two other hired merc where playing a game of cards not paying attention themselves since no one other than the townies looking to trade came to their small camp outside of the town anyways. The three mercenaries were hired by the Follows of the Eternal Goddess, also known as the followers for short. They where known as healers and teachers, only having a few small temples because of their nomadic nature, travelling from island to island trading medical supplies and books, using their skills in healing and teaching and trying their best to spread the word of the Goddess, it was however not uncommon knowledge that they directly opposed the Crucible and because of their pacifistic nature they relied on Merc like Lena and the others to guard their ships while they sailed through Sovereign territory.
Thomas was an older man with a eye patch over his left eye, Lena had never seen under it but she knew it probably was not nice since that half of his face was heavily scarred. Mattaus was opposite of him, the black haired merc not looking so good as he pushed over the last of his cash to a grinning Thomas,
"God dammit, how do you keep getting all those good hands Thomas? You hiding cards in your sleeves."
"If I was Mattaus it would be pretty impressive since I do not have any sleeves on this shirt."
The grey haired man laughed as the ground started to shake, the two of them looking up to see a low flying airship pass over for an emergency landing, ignoring Lena as she woke with a start from all the noise and fell backwards in her chair.
"Arrgh, what was that?"
The young woman stood up and saw the two of them staring so she turned to where they were looking and caught a glimps of the ship before it disappeared on the other side of the town.
"Well that can't be good."
She added,
"Ey' Thomas why don't you go ask Damian what he wants to do about that? I am sure some followers saw that ship crashing and would want to go send some healers to help out, Me and Mattaus will go check it out, see if it was anyone dangerous so the healers don't get themselves in some trouble when they arrive."
Thomas looked at her, not liking that the younger merc was giving him orders but he gave into the fact that it was a sensible plan and turned to go get the Follower leader without saying a word.
"Why'd you volunteer me for this, I don't wanna go see if they are shooty pirates or sumthin."
Lena just gave him a look as she picked up a rifle and tossed it to him, the merc catching it of course.
"To bad, we're just gonna go have a look anyways, not like we might have to shoot anyone."
She replied, picking up her own rifle and pulling him along to get him started at least, They would have to take a path through the town, two heavily armed merc heading towards the crash site might not look good but it was the quickest way there. Besides by now most of the townsfolk knew who the two of them where and probably would not cause a ruckus while they passed through.
