The work moved a lot quicker than I ever expected.
It all started with me taking a few minutes to convince Makary I wasn't joking. Then, with a few more calls, he called in quite a colorful bunch.
Save for the small incident when the recipient of his call misunderstood the meaning of the 'tools' Makary wanted him to bring, the entire process took merely forty-five minutes.
And in this short time that I've passed filling in Makary on various details either I myself considered important or he asked about, the hangar went from empty and peaceful to crowded and busy.
In the end, Makary called in only twelve of his men, all more picturesque than the other.
