![]() Within an hour only, Aurel was ducking and weaving in his flying vehicle with the breeze, level with the gulls and enjoying all the wonders of flight.Īs dusk settled in, he decided that it’d be time to return to his workshop. But to his surprise, the device began to lift, and with a few panicked adjustments, stabilized itself. With a grunt, he pulled the ignition cord waiting for the sounds of explosion. Exactly a decade and a day after his retirement, on a windy afternoon, Aurel had another attempt of creating the Gyrocopter, but this time with more hesitation and expectant failure. As the years went by, and after countless failed prototypes, as they began to pile up, Aurel in turn also began to wonder if mechanical flight was even possible. Once retiring fully to the tropical lands of the Ash Archipelago, with not much of anything else besides time and money, Aurel set to work on the device. Aurel received a few trinkets along with quite a considerable pension, but the former engineer left with something in fact much more interesting: a forgotten, incomplete schematic drawing for the creation of what’s called a Gyrocopter, the world’s first manned and non-magical flying vehicle. After having served through a lifetime of trife and wars, including many upheavals, riots and such, it’s decided from up top that he’d seen enough of them, and that it’s time for him to go backstage. Gyrocopter, also known as Aurel, was a seasoned veteran essentially with a bit too much time on his hands post-retirement.
