Patrol Ship One had its powerful magiteck cannons loaded and locked into firing positions and the Airos manning them only needed a signal from Pri Rila to rain pain down upon the trade galleon sized air ship that they suspected might be pirates. Pri Rila had her eyes locked on target watching and waiting for them to make the slightest aggressive action towards the airborne cargo ship flying under the banner of The Empire of Kerseye.
If the air ship belonged to a different power, she would likely wait until after they were boarded, but considering that it was one of the trade ships of her father's empire, she would not let them set a single foot on it. If they so much as scratch the paint she would make them regret the day they decided to become pirates.
