Red Skies

The British Empire never fell. Steam powered technology continued to advance. Zeppelins won out over airplanes. Mutants are considered second-class citizens by the empire and many resort to piracy to survive. These mutant pirates are hunted not only by the military, but also by a zealous religious order known as The Purifiers.

She chuckled.

"And how interesting you turn out to be in the light."

"Speaking of interesting. Do you always drape yourself on the bed like this or only if you're expecting company?" she smirks, graciously slipping inside.

"I prefer things happening on my terms. Being picked up in a shady bar? Not so much." she smirks.

"And I would thank you for letting me have the illusion that you did not notice me 3 miles out already." she adds with a chuckle.

By the looks of things, the Emerald Crow had been rather successful. Though this was far from its treasure hold, it certainly had a few things which had caught Morrigan's eye.

"Thinking of further... business ventures? Should I be offended your eyes are off me now?" She laughed.

"Hmm? Oh yes, right!" she goes, sitting up slightly. "I couldn't tell for sure, but it's dangerous. Something they've been working on for a long time. Blueprints, maybe even a prototype."
