The three of you are given oxygen masks before you are permitted to enter the recovery bay. As you step out of the airlock, you are immediately assailed by the subzero tempuratures and very low pressure that comes with being 20,000 feet over the arctic ocean. The aft shutters are in the process of raising as you enter, and a number of recovery crew are standing by in bulky uniforms which blur the line between "heavy winter clothing" and "EVA spacesuit", with the oxygen gear and safety tether tipping the scale rather significantly towards the latter.
Over the sound of heavy machinery and the thundering roar of the Tordenskjold's engines, you hear a high pitched whine gradually approaching. Then, once the shutters are fully retracted, you see a set of navigation lights sticking out against the night sky. Finally, a Wyvern shakily sets down inside the bay. The recovery crew rushes out and secures the plane to the deck, the fighter's engines power down, and the shutters close.
Tayasaurus:
Tippy looks around for whatever she and the others were called there for.
Mr. Hurricane:
Jaakko is assaulted by the freezing temperatures.
"Xiaomei delivered!" Jaakko reports, raising his voice to overcome the mask and din of the recovery bay.
He sees Tippy looking slightly lost.
"Xiaomei offered a Wyvern before the left Valhalla, said something about the manufacturers wanting to test it on airships," he says.
