Despite the sudden turbulence, all is well for passengers and crew. The Captain's expertise ensured a safe landing, all things considered. You and the other passengers wait for further instruction from crew, all of which are preoccupied ensuring passenger safety on board.

Thankfully, all on board have made it unharmed. Eventually, you are allowed to disembark the ship, where it has made a touchdown at the edge of a sheer cliffside. 

The smog laps at the cliffs from below you now.

Closer inspection of the airship reveals TECHnIC ticks burrowed into some of the plating. This is especially true of the face of the ship, where the bowsprit pierced through the strange smog layer. It's a strange find, considering the tell-tale metallic clicking of the tick's wings can be heard in the smog, too.

Your captain seems disgruntled about the sudden appearance of the TECHnIC ticks, and orders the mechanics and crew to get to work investigating the infestation. 

As you look around, you notice that your ship has landed on the lowest part of a larger cliff system. Above your head are large pillars of sheer rock faces, dotted with dense trees and shrubbery. For a moment all seems still... but you're quickly able to deduce that you are not alone. 

Bird-like creatures stare down from above. Some are perched on the cliff pillars with long spears in their talons, while others hover mid-air and peer down curiously. Eventually, a shimmering green bird with a red breast breaks from the flock. many of the harder-eyed birds follow him at a close distance, but he flies to meet the arcanus crew curious where the rest are cautious.

He speaks with the captain, and soon enough, the flock has come to help with the ticks, and offers escorts to their nearby village — The Roost.
