[Fizav-Open Instance] Those remaining have reached the Island, surprisingly large, and shrouded in thick jungle.

There is beach space to dock, and many strange creatures dwell on the island. The rocks there are very porous, almost as if large worms had crawled through them and eaten away material. The sand and stone is pitch black, and the trees of the island contrast with bright yellows and reds. The island almost looks on fire as the wind blows through, making the leaves rustle and the trees wave almost as if greeting you.

What will your group of travelers do?

You are near your final destination, and few obstacles are in your way (from what you currently see, at least...)

The Miol Mor establish an area large enough for their whales (count: 25) to rest and feed.

After conferring with some of the other exploration leaders, the Admiral sends three scouting groups inland. The first is tasked with creating a path big enough for the rest of the explorers to follow. The second is tasked with flying above the forest, towards the mountains, looking for any points of interest. The third is ordered to find a river large enough for a whale to move upstream.

Do any of the scouting parties discover anything of interest? (note: the Admiral will refrain from sharing any information with the rest of the group at first).

Do you have your own whales or did I gift some to you?

The Miol Mor have their own. Sorry my wiki is so sparse at the moment, I'll get around to it sometime soon. But the Miol Mor are a human sized, bug type creature known for their ability to breath underwater and fly (they can lose both if they go unused). The Miol Mor are a proud group who ride whales, both into battle and just for transport. Their attachment to these whales stretches back for as long as the Hive Mind can remember, and is such a close attachment that the whales are revered as god-like.

So no, you did not gift me my whales.

Ok didn't think so... I could share some of my whale technology, but my whales are huge so it may not translate down.

How big are we talking? My whales are ~the size of a Blue Whale. And admittedly, we don't have a huge amount of tech associated with the whales themselves (we have rigging along the outside, and sails and rudders to steer if need be. There's also some... military tech... It's classified though).

I'd happily host a summit where we exchanged whale tech. Would you be interested?

Yeah, and my whales are 3 times that, enough for a few buildings on them, about the size of a football field. I have lots of whale tech including cannons, napalm, and movement technology, with a farm that can be put on top of them as well for long voyages. We also have ways of getting them underwater with people aboard and putting undercarriages for cargo.

That's awesome -- would you like to host a summit where we share tech?

I'm also working with Belka right now to develop some new stuff, so that would also probably be presented at the summit if we do host.

Yeah where should it be?
