Wait, there's a better flight spell in the Fire selection than in the Air one?

Poor Air. Really feels like it's the "illusions or nothing" element sometimes.

That being said, are you ready to take flight like an awesome dragon to survey the land?

You could always set Sora on fire and fling him into the sky (sora).

The pun makes it worth it… And the Sora being set on fire.

Wings of fire recon sounds pretty cool, ngl.

At least we don’t have any active air shugenja PCs, so no need to feel too bad about Call Upon the Wind in this particular instance. :?

Alas, Wings of Fire only works on the shugenja casting it. Call Upon The Wind at least works on others.

See Sora? I did tell you D1EM that the solution for this madness was for your Bat/Dragon/Phoenix people to channel their symbolic animals and actually fly.

Now get into the red and orange wooden contraption our mad scientists have engineered and flap your arms. While on fire.
