4090 Transcending the Physical

As Ves and his family ended their vacation on Makairo IV and returned to Davute without incident, both he and his wife came away with a lot of new ideas.

Seeing how different creatures evolve and adapt to environmental pressures generated a lot of philosophical discussions and formed the inspiration of numerous new design concepts.

In addition to the immediate benefits, the entire vacation had also put the two Journeymen into a different mood and state of mind.

By removing themselves from their familiar environment and placing them in a completely different one, they could look back at their work from a distance.

This new and detached perspective allowed them to evaluate their work and judge what they were doing from a different and less involved angle. Both Ves and Gloriana benefited a lot from this as it was akin to developing a second opinion on everything they had done up to this point.
