(Side Story): The Guardian (2): The Outpost

Kodak placed set the airship on a hill that overlooked the slave outpost below him. He needed the vantage point, but also this was the only place that offered enough protection from the outpost. There was a short time rter chance of being discovered, and as it is, he needed to tread with caution and discretion.

"I hope you're not planning on leaving me here?" Shao Tie asked, as his huge golden form, peeled away from the airship, and materialized by Kodak's side.

"You're almost a hundred meter long if not more, those guys will see us coming. So it's better if you remain bonded to the airship." Kodak explained to Shao Tie, hoping against all odds that the dragon won't make things too difficult for him.

"Don't worry, I can be discreet too." Shao Tie replied to Kodak.
