His face blanks for a moment, conflicted looks of awe, hope, anger and, if it was to be said, envy all there to be read. This was a man who had dedicated his life to one goal and, upon seeing it realized in a form by another, questioned if there was else left to do.Then a smile broke out over his face."Still not as good as the original."Thoughts raced in his head, different means of improvement, changes to the design, arcane advancements that the too mechanically minded group of his brethren would not have thought of. It isn't until a tap on his shoulder does he come out of it."It is a beauty. Not very practical, but neither were the designs of our ancestors. Hmm. Must be some damage to the engine or air bladder---the hole shouldn't keep it grounded." He looks over at the others. "Might be enough of us to get it in the air if I can figure the works... but we better hope a few of them survived if we want this to be quick." An eager light burns in his eyes.</blockquote>
