EPISODE 293; THE MIGRATION TO OLYMPUS PART II: KRAKEN ANDROMEDA FORMATION SERAPHIM VER 3; THE LIVING CLOUD

Keiran and Concordia had informed the Chief and the people of the changes they needed to make to their Migration Plans. The people were now aware that the Migration was no longer going to occur via Camels but rather via Concordia's Kraken Andromeda in its Seraphim Mode.

Keiran had drawn up a plan of Kraken Andromeda's upgraded Seraphim Mode. It was to be a huge streamlined structure with a large base within which all the people and livestock could live in until they made it to the Transit Points to restock on Supplies. The outermost form of the Structure was to be a Humongous Cloud which's purpose was to mask the Structure from the prying eyes of the Weaver Of Calamity's Forces while simultaneously dispersing the Sun's punishing rays to maintain the coolness within the Structure. For the Cloud to not give away the Villagers as they migrated, it had to be similar in nature to the Clouds that dominated the Desert Region. Cirrus Clouds were the commonest in Dry Landscapes while Cumulus Clouds occasionally brought Rain. Cumulonimbus Clouds in rare instances brought on Storms but the Weather in Desert Regions was mostly dry so Concordia and Keiran had decided to resort mostly to Cirrus Clouds for most of the journey and transition to other Cloud Formations as and when the Weather called for it. Basically, they had decided to blend Kraken Andromeda's Clouds with the Desert Clouds. On a Cloudless Day, they would fly at a much higher altitude to create the impression that Kraken Andromeda was a single solitary Cloud.

Kraken Andromeda's Seraphim Formation was to be divided into Two Major Parts for Offensive and Support Purposes with a subdivision of Three Offensive Parts and Three Supportive Parts. The Cloud Formation was the First Offensive Part. The Second and Third Offensive Parts were to be a Reconnaissance Formation and an Archery Volley Barrage Formation. The Recon Formation was composed of large arrays of converging lenses that were laid along the entire outermost body of Kraken Andromeda's Solid Body. These peered through Constant Openings Concordia and her Archers would be making through the Clouds in an omnidirectional fashion to scout out the Weaver Of Calamity's Forces. Hidden within the Cloud Formation were also Drones with similar capabilities that had been forged out of Concordia's Kraken Andromeda which being a Sigil that had now been delegated to the Clan she was protecting could perceive Dream Beings and Nightmares if they came into contact with them and thus allowed the people of her land to perceive them as well. Through the openings on Kraken Andromeda's body were to be many Tubes and Targeting Mechanisms that would hone in on Nightmares radiating animosity towards the Clan and fire on an Archer's Command. This Formation extended omnidirectionally across Kraken Andromeda's outer Body. Behind this Formation were Walls made of thick insulating materials that further isolated the Heat that would make it into the Formation. These insulating Walls divided the Three Supportive Inner Part Of The Formation namely, the Living Quarters, Livestock Barns and Food Storage.

Food Storage was mainly a room made of especially thick insulating walls cutting off almost all Heat Radiation from outside while Keiran's Alchemists simultaneously flowed in Cool Air to maintain the Freshness of Stored Food. The Livestock Barns were not too heavily insulated but moderately so since most Desert Animals had a high tolerance for Heat and Cold. The Living Quarters as well as the Archery Formation had insulating Walls by Day which transitioned into Conducting Walls by Night. At Night, the Alchemists altered the Composition of the Walls by Altering the Atomic Structure Of The Elements that composed the Walls. This allowed them to channel Warmth into the Living Quarters and Archery Formation. These Walls reverted to insulating Walls in the Daytime.

After explaining to the Archers the different layers of Kraken Andromeda's Seraphim Formation, Concordia and her Archers as well as Keiran and his Alchemists raised the Structure. The rooms within the Structure were fully furnished with elements that enhanced the comfort of its inhabitants and after packing the Food the Clan had gathered as well as the livestock they had maintained into the appropriate Spaces, Keiran and Concordia created Maps embedded within Kraken Andromeda's Framework that contained both an Aerial and Biogeochemical view of the Desert Region allowing the Structure to navigate over the Pathways of Water Networks within the Desert.

After the Villagers had all settled into their designated roles, the journey towards Olympus commenced. Chief Daniel VIII and his elders and logistics experts were responsible for governing and maintaining the calm of the Villagers as well as distributing their Food and Resources at the right time.

Concordia and Keiran ensured that whenever there were Clouds in the Sky, they moved Kraken Andromeda along the flow of the Wind to avoid rousing Suspicion and whenever the Winds moved the Clouds against them, they ascended above the Clouds to conceal their position and motion, basically they navigated by using the Desert Clouds as cover.
