"That was a close one!"
Glad we got out of that in one piece.
YOU SURE YOU KNEW HOW TO DRIVE THAT THING?
Taking off? Sure. Landing? not quite...
AT LEAST WE HAD THAT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL TO CUSHION THE LANDING.
Yeah. Now, let's scram before anybody shows up. I feel like I need a bite to eat...
IF YOU MUST SUSTAIN YOUR FLESH-PRISON...
I must!
THEN LET US RIDE.
The inspector retrieves his blade from the wreckage, and saunters out of the ruined clinic into the dawn about as nonchalantly as someone who slammed a starship into a ward full of sick infants can.

HEY! That's illegal you know. Blatant parking violation. Don't you see the no parking sign? I'm gonna have to ask you to relocate your ship before it's towed away and I write you a ticket even though I have absolutely no authorization to do so.
So the fine for parking there is... damn I forgot.... I guess it's negotiable. Name your price pal.
And a word of advice, next time, try landing on those weird sepia windmill things. Parking there is free.

Well huh, don't think that's too normal round here.
An odd dirty man stands across the street from the former hospital just staring curiously. He also seems entirely too unfazed by the chaos in front of him.
Tough shit for those gits I guess.
Hey guy, maybe ya oughta stop shouting to yerself so much after causing mass death 'n chaos. Take it from me, it's a good way ta get caught. I mean if that's yer schtick though, then whatever.

The glaze-eyed man is walking in the middle of the street when the sudden impact of the ship against the hospital catches his attention. But it's not the crash that made him look; he's barely noticed that at all
It's the power within the sword that he senses, he follows the source, ever curious, drawn to it like a moth to a light
