"There's a special vessel we use here in the desert. I forget the technical terminology, but we all call it a Sand Surfer. The ship can hold about... 200 people, maybe more if you don't wanna give them any room to breath. One was used when we raided this place earlier," Sauphier answered Vale's question.

Blaine nodded his head, understanding the mode of transportation used would be unique to the area. "So, what if you don't have that many people? Travelling alone, or in several small parties..." he asked. He had assumed these ships were only used for abduction; smaller units if there were any could be used for scouting parties, that way you don't send the whole army at the same time.

"We use smaller vehicles sometimes, Dust Gliders but they're reserved for more covert operations,"Sauphier continued, referencing the plan to assassinate Garnet. "Before I was burried alive, I was actually out searching for my partner's ride..."

The look on Sauphier's face then saddened, remembering the fate of his companion. He shook his head, thinking that it was not the time to mourn. "The infiltrator stole a glider upon her escape, so there's three of them within the city that can be used to reach the lab."

"Nickelae, you speak as though she's putting a loaded gun in his hands..." Amy spoke, shaking her head at his statement. "He has to eat too. If we leave him starve..." she stopped mid-sentence, remembering some of the sights she had witnessed in the previous lab. The bruises, the signs of malnutrition, and all the pain prisoners had endured. "Allow me to grab glasses of water for everyone," Amy quickly changed the subject, heading towards the kitchen.
