Hunter looked like he wanted to argue further, but he couldn't deny the logic.
Finally, he sighed. "Fine. But you're taking someone. I'm not letting you fly into that deathtrap alone."
"I'll go!" Steve practically bounced out of his chair.
"This is an incredible research opportunity! The chance to study this strange world and the concentration of the strange forces at those altitudes. Oh, how wonderful that would be!"
"Steve," Hunter said slowly, "you understand this is extremely dangerous, right?"
"Naive Hunter! Danger is inevitable in the life of one who practices the arts! It is as constant as the waking and the setting sun..." Steve raised and waves his fists around.
Hunter pursed his lips and turned to Cain,
"You sure you want him to tag along?"
Cain scratched his head,
"I'm not sure..."
Steve turned to him with tears at the corners of his eyes.
Cain and Hunter exchanged looks.
"You know what?" Cain said with a sigh.
