Kharas decide to land. As he jump down his dragon, he wonders if the creator of this place have been up to create ant size contruct. He starts to scan teh are, trying to find those ant and see if his theory is true.

*Scanning the area carefully for some time, he finds one of the ants, placing his hand in front of its path so that it crawls onto it like an obstacle. Bringing it up close so he can look at it with a careful eye, he sees that it is, in fact, an incredibly tiny and delicate construct.*
 

"Amazing!" tells Kharas to himself. He then search his things for any type of container that will contain one of this ant (or imporvised one) and put it in his pocket to look at it when time will better for that. Once that done, he jump back on his dragon and fly again to the nearest unexplored island.
 

*The next island is an impressive sight--a verdant lightly forested area with a river that runs through, complete with a spectacular waterfall at the end of the river that flows over the edge of the island and down into the mists. A small dam, of the sort a beaver would build, is located near the centre of the river.*
 

Kharas lands again near the water. He looks at teh water and smell it, then touch it. After a being sure it seems good, he take a sip, then drink. He hasn,t drink anything since a bit and he starts to be thirsty. That remind him that he still have the sandwich in his pack, but he'll keep that for later. He look around to see if there is still a mixt of construct and animals inhabiting that island.

He then wonder where all that water come from. That looks like a dream more than a real thing. Endless water fall. He jump into his dragon again and go see the top of teh waterfall and try to undesrtand how this water come from.
 

*The water is good--clean, cool, and pure. Following the river to its source, he sees that there is another waterfall from the clouds above that falls down to the river, which flows to the waterfall he had seen before. Flying to the end and the waterfall that flows down into the mists, he sees a curious-looking beaver watching him from the brush.*
 

Another construct. I don't know who made all that, but that is crazy and impressive. thinks Kharas, but that time, he doesn't try to confirm his doubt. It is useless and he need to find his way out of here, or the kids if they are here. He flies away and go to visit the next island. How many more island like that? he wonders.
 

*The beaver heads out towards Kharas curiously, but Kharas ignores the beaver and flies away to look at the next island. The next island is home to an assortment of birds, flying about around a small lake in the centre and nesting amidst the trees that surround it.*
 

"Probably more constructs with maybe some true birds..." Kharas tells to himself. That time, he doens't stop, he decides to continue to explore the islands, flying to the next, hoping to find something more than island inhabited with animals or animal-like construct.
 

*Flying to the next island, Kharas sees a quiet forest with deer and other animals within. Kharas thinks that maybe if he went to the big salient island that is always visible from which and to which many of the flying things are flying, he is more likely to find something different than he is by randomly hopping to the nearest island again and again.*
