I’ll catch you if you start to over balance.” @Channelknight Fadran “So what’s the issue?” Marea asked blankly.

Stand on top of it and push. I’ll catch you if you start to over balance.” Rylia stands above the coin, burns steel, and pushes, somehow. She knows the lines, but hasn't ever done this before and couldn't describe it. She shoots up through the mists, up upupup then slows and stops, unable to go farther. She looks at the other lines extending from her, watching for movement and wondering what to do next. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where one pushes, the other pulls. Use the two together, and you’ll be able to move through the air as easily as along the ground. ”The thing to remember is to balance the two.

The thread grows smaller and then disappears. She picks a different thread and tries again, a larger thread this time. She flies forwards - and then realizes that she no longer has anything keeping her from falling, since she moved off the coin. Rylia starts panicking.

Kelsier smirked, tossing another coin below Rylia. “Push off it at an upward-forward angle to keep moving toward me,” he instructed. “Use the streetlamps to help you balance in the air. You can also use them for an additional upward thrust. Pull on the metal in that chimney,” he pointed, “to guide yourself toward that roof.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
