Chapterish Sectionoid 3

The team begins under the Save Block outside the Grate Oracle Lewot's house. Rushing a lot of exposition, Lewot leads them to a large, wooden, horse-powered airship which will take them to the city of On-Ede. Though largely medieval, it sports swirly LED electric light bulbs. With Lewot and Jack in Halen along for the ride, the ship takes off. The players enjoy a leisurely ride at first; Rammen inquires a random passenger about the mushroom on his head, and learns that such mushrooms are spreading as commensal organisms amongst the inhabitants of On-Ede, while Miles sneaks below decks and has a look at the horses, who are each running on conveyor belts toward apples hanging on strings.

Meanwhile, a new player character named Levity wakes up in a different room of the airship. She is unaware of the presence of the other players and vice versa, but Levan is an extraction from her personality whom she thought was dead. After sneaking around the ship a bit, she spots Levan and Miles coming up the stairs, and freaks out. She makes a first strike on Levan, and Rammen hurries upstairs to join the battle. As the rest of the passengers watch the player-versus-player battle unfold, the airship strikes an unexpected passing Sharknado, and sharks rain in on random victims throughout the fight. One of these victims turns out to be Samuel L. Jackson, proving once again that he is indeed in everything.

With the help of a Four-Bean Salad, Levity wipes the floor with the other three players. Lewot comes up the stairs and convinces Levity to stop attacking so that the airship, now thoroughly full of shark holes, can be saved. He revives the other players with Senzu Beans and releases some flight-capable Pokémon in an attempt to survey and/or lift the ship. Suggesting that Levan uses Volamos to allow the players to assist, he flies outside with his raccoon tail.

However, since we never ended up playing again after this, it is safe to say that the story concluded with everyone being eaten by sharks.
