[It translates roughly into the "storm lover", something you might pick up on if you're exposed to lower cant. And that's a fairly accurate description of this Gottala: the Xes Ther is smaller and swifter than your average city-ship, keeping never more than 374 individuals aboard. Its housing is clean but minimalistic, its gardens have no decorative value: only essential nutrients are grown. There is a heavier reliance on fishing upon this Gottala, and no sight of field-fed livestock that is common on others. No beef, no poultry, no pork.

Just fish.

And sprawls of laboratories.

Laboratories that connect like honeycombs: they octagon sprawl into each other, forming larger segments of the same structure. And in these labs? Storms are made. Or, more precisely: the effects of weather patterns are mimicked and induced. Xes Ther is a craftsman city-ship, and all of its members contribute to creating, controlling and selling weather-born energy.

She rubbed her puffy eyes again, almost tempted to punch herself wide awake. She was alert, but every now and then exhaustion was threatening to overtake her. Kate hadn't been this drained since her two year training around every hellhole in the world.

"What a nightmare," she huffed. "If it's anything like Metricog, we're not getting off this ship for another couple of days."

"Hopefully sooner rather than later," Kang muttered a curse. "You look exhausted."

"I'm fine," she shook her head, trying to downplay it. "... but I'll feel a bit better once we get off this ship and back to the City."

Always an odd thing to say, but she would rather be there or back in Gotham than here.

He gave her a look that said that he clearly wasn't buying it, but didn't press further. "Never thought I'd want to be back there."

"Don't think the Porter will let us off that easy." She huffed, expression darkened at the thought.

"She never does," Kang said dryly. "Do you think Skrulls are involved again?"

"I haven't heard anything about them." She looked around again, wary at the thought of it. The last time the Skrull she encountered surprised her from seemingly out of nowhere. Well, the Mayor.

"We can't understand most of what they're saying, so that doesn't guarantee anything. I haven't run into many others from the City, either."
