Captain Wilks'

Captain Wilks' always liked the way things looked from the sky. He was an adventurous pilot that couldn't quite give up the adrenaline rush that came with flying, even long after he retired. 

Failing to get used to having two feet on the ground again, Captain Wilks' began experimenting in his workshop desperate to find a way to get back into the clouds. He worked for days, sometimes long into the night, to build himself a custom plane and set up all the necessary test equipment he would need, including a large inflatable landing pad to cushion his fall as he tested out his new machine. 

One day, during a successful test run of his latest model, he climbed higher and higher into the sky before bursting through the clouds in triumph. However, when he looked around he suddenly found himself flying over unfamiliar territory. Expecting to look down and see his workshop beneath him, Captain Wilks peered out to see a huge castle surrounded by guards. 

"A castle in the clouds?"

The Captain thought, quite bemused at this new landscape, "I'd better go and explore!"
