They will see us waving from such great heights
Come down now, they'll say

Basically you get on a vehicle, get presented with 3 different buttons, which each play a cinematic (cancellable with esc), each taking about 15s to play and then you are lowered back down, and the CD is reset for the next button.
But also... What is up with the sounds during the "cinematic"? I can't stop it with music or SFX disabling. And they're all so gloomy even for the radically different "characters" seen in each one. I can see the "Danger" one eliciting that dark music and the gongs... but the dragonracing? The elementals? Doesn't make a whole ton of sense to me.
"Dragonriders? I gotta race them!"
Ok, if we are the first ones on the scene, who are these dragonriders? Are dragons riding dragons?

Description
Toddy and Naleidea have requested a survey report of the surrounding area immediately. Luckily, I have acquired an enchanted telescope and surveyor's disc that will help us scout out nearby areas from the safety of the clouds. Unluckily, I am deathly afraid of heights and cannot bring myself to set foot on the contraption. You are not afraid of heights, are you?
