Red-haired steampunk girl and her goblin companion sit on an airship deck under a swirling cosmic night sky — This whimsical steampunk fantasy illustration shows a young mechanic girl and her cheerful goblin co-pilot perched on the brass bow of an airship high above a glowing cloud city. Warm worn leather and brass tones contrast with deep navy and purple cosmic skies, dotted with a vibrant spiral galaxy and floating vintage zeppelins in the distance. The mood is adventurous and hopeful, blending retro-futurist design with high fantasy worldbuilding.

After the Shift Xenya, a Very Good Mechanic on the good (although piratie) airship 'Sky Torrent", relaxes after her shift accompanied by a fellow engine room-crew member (New Chapter of 'Somewhere Far, Far Away" soon!)

The gremlin is xenya's friend and co-worker. He has already helped her during that foght with the Harpies in the engine-room. Besides, Xenya is under the protection of a certain ship's Wizard. retribution woyld be swift and terrible! 😖

Hahaha, yes! They have that expression on their little green faces. I don't know if that was the intention of our dear friend, but we are happy to have him back.

😂 yeah and like he's not a fluffy Mogwai, but a green Gremlin, someone has already fed him after midnight 🙄😁

To overcome very few of that fear I think of riding a glider flying above the sea. 😉✨ 16 years before I started watching horror movies and overcame that fear. Next I started my journey on snakes and not afraid of venomous snakes and touched live Spectacled Cobra and lifted it up holding its tail. My next target is touching King Cobra's head if possible. I just wanted to overcome my fears. 😎🤘

Whoa!! Just hearing about those snakes hives me the chills, my friend! Although, this summer, i discovered a nest of 4 snakes (small ones, thank god) in our freaking courtyard and I was forced to kill them with an axe!

Oh yeah!~ iirc he bonked the harpy, then when Takkis asked about him Xenya pretended like he didn't exist...something is telling me she is covering for him. [secret mentor? stowaway? The Captain cannot know😋]

For 2 days net was too slow that BP posts didn't load. I watched "Fall" part 1 movie. It was so thrilling since real me is afraid of heights. This reminds of it. Awesome, my dear friend ! 🤩✨

panos

Hello my friend! I noticed your absence. Haven't seen that movie. Me, I have a HUGE fear of heights! I never could have done what Xenya is doing here. I would be....

panos

Ha-haa! Glad you caught on that, JMN. We will reveal (Cayla & I ) what exactly is happenning with Xenya and the Gremlin in future chapters of the story.
