Top Ranger Things

On your way to the Ranger Union, Wendy comes along and brings you to the Union on her Staraptor.
Inside, your old friend Keith is there! He was also promoted to Top Ranger. That's not all, Rythmi is also there! She's now an Operator at the Union. What a reunion!
As a Top Ranger, you can assign yourself Missions, but Sven calls into the Union asking for help, so Erma sends you and Keith to help Sven.
Outside, Wendy teaches you how to ride a Staraptor. Now, a whole Slew of Quests open up!
