The burner for the hot air balloon is magical, and is toggled on and off. It takes health to turn it on, but not off. Frankly, you’re surprised your cost idea worked, and something tells you that won’t happen often.
The balloon looks fantastic, though. TCPs crowd around, thrilled to see their work made real, and at such a grand scale too. Buddy puts on its goggles with a bit of fumbling, trying to make itself look more confident than it felt- it’d been taught how to use this balloon, and while going up in it should be saved for emergencies, it would do its best!
The little heartsea TCP applauds enthusiastically, the others joining in. Buddy stops them after a moment, saying that it really can’t take a whole lot of credit here…everyone helped. This was their balloon, as an alliance, and they should all be proud of that!
The crowd goes wild.
