Filan watched as the banged up craft skidded along the runway,  worried it would strike the landing struts of his ship but noticing it stopped just short of a hard impact.   the Hyperion did loom a bit over the other vessels with its multiple decks and the four large iron landing feet that appeared they would retract by some method,  Which method was unknown to all but Filan, Erein and their crew.  The airship was always a bit of a mystery at ports with its lack of vertical lift propellers or balloons it should not fly but only close friends got to see more than the standard steam plant that ran the propellers and electrical generators.  "Hard landing there,  are you two alright?"  he kept to himself any comments for the time being about the small craft being too dangerous for sky travel.
