Yerkes rushed from room to room barking orders at any person he could see as the big moment approached. Today he had finally completed a job that was 7 years in the making, He had first built a great "Air Port" in the City of Sheen which he called Association International Air Port and Station, originally intended for the prestigous and profitable route from Sheen to Morthal, though despite haggling to get the rights to fly this route from the Sadaler authorities, unfortunately due to the war between Sadalen and WTC, it had been decided to postpone the opening of that particular route till later, for now he had been able to snatch up the rights last minute to land at one of Narunar's Airbases near Ngatra, which for this flight was named by Yerkes "Ngatra International"

The new Airships were revealed, altered from the original magdali design to better fit a less militaristic purpose, with the livery inspired by the Sheenish flag:  The first Sheenish designed AA Class Airship, AA-01 was advertised by Yerkes to be able to travel at 45 knots continuously, beating the Great Tit ocean liners whose top speed was just 24 knots, thus allowing the Airship to complete the journey to Narunar 4 times faster, arriving in under 2 days of travel vs the original week. The Airship took on 20 guests for her maiden voyage, mostly MLP leadership and Aldermen along with Yerkes himself. The Airship launched with little issue, however grey clouds soon arrived along the route of the Airship. |

The Airship had little issues from the rain in the ringsea, merely causing the ride to be minorly less comfortable than Yerkes wished it would be, but they reached their first stop at Drusskia with few issues. After refuelling and getting more Port and Whiskey, the Airship once again launched, with it's next stop being in Narunar.

Finally after two days of travel, the Sheenish Airship landed at "Ngatra International", at which Yerkes made a speech to the crowd, and then invited the Narundan officials to tour the Airship that had just landed on their land.

The tour went well, the Narundan delegation being quite familiar with airships (or dirigibles as they were locally known). Duke Cant (the King's son-in-law) taking the place of the King, spent some time with Yerkes in the on board lounge, discussing the specifications of the vessel, and the potential for commercial air travel in Narunar. Following this dicussion, Yerkes and the rest of the Sheenish delegation were invited to a banquet and private dinner where the King would be in attendance. |
