Scalding Sands - Silk City

|
Isn't it nice and cool in the car? Just kick back and relax, guys! |

|
Kinda hard to relax when I'm getting the actual VIP treatment. Regular students don't generally travel in fancy cars with a security detail. |

|
...... |

|
Is something the matter, Malleus? You've been frowning for a while now. Oh no, have we inadvertently offended you somehow? |

|
I think it's less of a frown and more like a dazed expression. |

|
Y'know, he hasn't said a word since we got in the car. |

|
He's just been gazing out the window... |

|
Are you okay, Malleus?! Should we stop the car?! |

|
Don't panic, Kalim! I've got motion sickness medicine for just this reason. |
Hornton, are you okay?! | We got paper bags if you need 'em! |

|
Cease your fuss. Of course I do not get "carsick." I'm simply taking in the experience of riding in this vehicle. |

|
Oh, I see... That's a relief. |

|
Yeah, on second thought, Malleus being quiet is pretty standard. |

|
That's what we get for jumping to conclusions. Sheesh. |

|
What'cha lookin' at, Hornton? See something cool? |

|
I'm just watching all the scenery go by. After all, this is my first time riding in a car. |

|
Briar Valley doesn't have much in the way of motor vehicles. It's faster for us to fly around. I never saw the need to trap myself in a machine that crawls along the ground... But now that I'm in one, it's quite pleasant and spacious. I'm rather enjoying it. If all cars are like this, I can understand why you humans are so fond of them. |

|
All cars are definitely NOT like this... |

|
You hit the jackpot with your first drive being in a super-swank ride like this! |

|
I was startin' to worry we'd be out in that heat the whole time! |

|
Luckily Kalim hooked us up with this sweet air-conditioned car. |

|
Is it just me, or is the AC a little strong? |

|
Ya think so? It's perfect for me. |

|
That's because you're all warm and fuzzy, Grimmy. |

|
People here tend to keep the AC blowing strong since it's so hot outside. |

|
The sharp change in temperature can make people feel ill sometimes. Looks like it was too cold for you. |

|
Shall I conjure a fire to warm you, then? |

|
Ahaha! Good one, Malleus! |

|
...I can never tell when Malleus is joking around. |

|
That just made me break out in a cold sweat! Now I'm really feeling the chill. |

|
I'll ask the driver to turn up the temperature a bit. One moment. |

|
Whew, that's much better. Thanks, Jamil. |
