Arguile suggests that, since it would take quite a long time by land or sea, and even by airship, the group uses the Strauss company jet piloted by Baf, who retires after this final ride. The group has many questions about how the aircraft works and emergency plans in the event the plane goes down.

The group gets ready for a fight while Glad and Turk do their best to land the jet safely. Galahad takes flight and makes quick work of the main assailant as the group does their best against fey magic and now descending jet. The fight is won, but the crew makes a bumpy crash landing at their destination. Hopefully, they can finish this quest better than how they started it.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…</p><p><br></p><p>Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa’s Cascade:&nbsp;Collateral Damage!</p><p>Theme Music is written and performed by <a href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@winterwisteria365\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Efflorescence</a></p><p>Mixed by Thomas Lapierre III</p><p>Title Card by Pierce Graphics&nbsp;</p><p>Check out the show at themedusascascade.com</p>","author_name":"Mr. Bell"}
