Tens of thousands, if not millions of years ago, a new land rose out of the rubble of an old one. The old world had been destroyed, with most species wiped out. All that anyone knows is that it was a large world, as what is left of it is now in bits and pieces, but contains a very strong magnetic mineral made mostly of oxygen, attracting atmosphere towards each piece. The only habitable land known to us, the only section large enough to support a population is known as Skyloom. A massive floating mass, spanning around 2000 kilometres in diameter. Our world. Of course, Great Emperor, you know this. So why aren't we able to explore further? I know that you have done your best to support us, but the population is growing too fast to keep Skyloom sustainable. We need to find a way off the ground. Our band of scientists will help you. We need to leave this land, and find out if there are more to colonize. We need to find a means of travel that will help.
We hope that you will accept our offer,
Tortin Kontrai, head of the Westford Science Committee
