"-a Jupiter, aren't you? You direct the wind?" Felix was shouting to be heard over the noise of the wind and what it was doing to the tent fabric.

The girl nodded, wide-eyed.

"Then read my mind!"

She closed her eyes, and Felix could see and feel her Psynergy reaching into his mind. The wind slackened a bit, then died completely. The girl rushed toward him...

...But before she crossed the few feet she had disappeared. again

Unexpected, what you did to my heart!

"This is it."

Felix squeezed Sheba's hand and gestured to the building. "If anyone in the world has your answers, they're in there."

It was a magnificent building. Huge but not imposing, looking like it was about to drift away on the winds - which were much stronger than Felix expected, at this altitude. Parts of it seemed to blend into the pale purple dome that protected the floating island from flying monsters and helped keep air in.

Felix realized that while he'd been pondering the scenery, Sheba had already gotten several yards closer to the building. He hurried to catch up.

No one told me I was going to find you.

Sheba had been disappointed when they finally got the Hover Jade. It didn't seem to lift them more than a few inches off the ground, and only for a few seconds.

"That's not a hover! It's not even much of a jump!" she'd complained.

But she wasn't complaining now.

"Look, Felix!"

Felix was trying very hard not to look. That they were still under Jupiter Lighthouse, in a room carved out of ordinary rock, helped, but he still didn't like being eight or ten feet above the floor, on a platform made entirely of Psynergy. Especially when he wasn't in control of it. Intellectually, he knew there was no safer way to get into the Lighthouse, and that Sheba wouldn't do anything dangerous, but he couldn't...

His train of thought was interrupted by Sheba's hand slipping into his. Small and light as a curl of wind she might be, but that contact calmed Felix enough to open his eyes and begin to glimpse what she found so amazing.

At the beginning with you!

It had been days since they first sighted Air's Rock, and nearly as long since they'd started to scale it. Everyone was tired. Sheba especially, because none of the others could cast Whirlwind. The others were flagging, too - Kraden simply because of his age, and Jenna and Felix because they were surrounded by huge amounts of Wind energy, allied with neither of their elements.

At length, they came to a long stretch of those floating platforms that were so prevalent here - and that Felix hated. It was one thing to be high up, he'd gotten over that on the sea journey from Prox to Angara, but it was quite another to be high up and held by nothing but insubstantial air.

Still, there looked to be no other way to get Reveal, so he gritted his teeth and started forward.

Now here we are, and I'm suddenly standing

Felix still couldn't believe islands could float.

That wasn't particularly important now, though. The weird wave had hit and knocked them into whichever continent this was. Unfortunately, it had also scattered them. Felix himself wasn't seriously injured, but he didn't know how the others were faring. After calling a few times and getting no response, he set out - north, arbitrarily - to see whom he could find.

Then he was among trees - not enough to be called a forest, but enough to be the dominant feature. It was there that he found Sheba, her head against a tree. He cast Cure, she woke up and stood up, and together they went to find the others - and the future.

...Never dreaming what we'd have to go through.
