A one-of-a-kind Orien–Lyrandar prototype, and the only airship in Khorvaire that can teleport. Cannith South funded and deployed it for the Siberys Covenant. (It still doesn’t have a name. Suggestions welcome.)
How it works
- Flight: like every Lyrandar airship, a bound air elemental forms a ring around the hull, held by a Khyber dragonshard. It answers to the Mark of Storm at the wheel, which is why Cosmo flies it.
- The teleport drive (“the core”): designed by the late Brey d’Orien. It channels Orien’s Mark of Passage through a dragonshard focus. The shard burned out on the blind jump out of Sharn; the one from Fort Tansend is meant to replace it.
- The core draws power from the elemental ring. Trouble in one is trouble in the other.
Right now
Hovering low over the King’s Forest, lamps hooded, near the ruins of Fort Tansend. The drive is offline while Serina works through the night.
