Ursula clutched the railing of the airship as it approached their destination. Whoever spoke of strong wings wasn't kidding; already she could feel their pull. She made a mental note to ask Kain to lead the way, given that he was the least likely to be pushed around and thus could act as a shield for the rest. As they approached the entrance, Ursula turned to her companions. The princess took this mission very seriously, especially considering her kingdom's ties to the Wind Crystal, and she trusted the others to treat it with all due seriousness, as well.

"Is everyone ready? We don't have a lot of time to waste. If anything needs to be done or said before we enter, best do it now." Ursula stared down at the Wind Crystal, clutched in her other hand. It was likely that she would never see Fabul or her parents again, but through this mission, at least she could fulfill one last duty to them both.

Lilisette watched the crystal for a moment, seeing nothing in it but faint glints. How they could discern feelings from a rock was beyond her, but at least it was happy, she guessed. Maybe if she started telling those on Vana'diel that they should pay more for her crystals because they were happier, she could fetch a better price for them. The thought was amusing to her, at the worst time, and she tried to hide that smile.

Instead she turned to Kain, and nodded toward his leg. She had not missed his limp, and she still had the means to dance if he was wounded. "Sir Highwind, your leg?"

Kain folded his arms and nodded agreement as he started at the crystal. "It's for the best for it to be here." The fact they would leave it in its place here was a tremendous relief to Kain- there was less danger of himself or anyone else getting their hands on it.

He glanced to Lilisette. The Regen had started to do its work, fortunately, but this was also Kain so... "It's fine, now."

And with a final nod, Refia moved into the center of the room, to the plinth where once upon a time a mirror had been placed. She gently deposited the crystal in the same spot, only breathing a sigh of relief when nothing exploded after she let go.

"All right... it's done. If the other teams do as well, then everything should be ready."
