['When' is a good question. Kratos looks thoughtfully up at the sky. It isn't too far into the night, but the travel will take some time even if Kratos takes Skulduggery only as far as the moon, and even if Kratos can move as fast as he wishes with Skulduggery in hand. By that point, the scouting team may have already set up a warp pad back to Derris-Kharlan.
[If so, he can bring one back with him and install it in Skulduggery's yard. It would shorten travel time somewhat.
[Kratos looks back as Skulduggery rises into the air.]
Huh.
[That's interesting. Kratos can even sense the shift of mana in the wind, not unlike Sylph -- except more conscious effort is obviously expended. Kratos drops his hand and alights from the ground also, a short hop before the tendrils of mana comprising his wings push the air beneath him, making him rise with far less apparent effort than anything with feathers.
[He regards Skulduggery thoughtfully as he ascends with easy beats of those wings. How high can Skulduggery fly on his own? It's clear he needs his hands to do so.]
