Bow's Plan
1. Set up a way to signal the helicopter to land on the helipad.
> "Visibility is key here, especially in harsh winter conditions like these. I wil search in the armory the power station, and then the hut near the helipad for a bunch of those lanterns, some flares, and an industrial-grade lighter. If I'm unable to find lanterns, then I might try finding some torches instead. Once the supplies are obtained, use a series of well-timed Quick Attacks to clear off snow from the helipad in order to ensure maximum visibility. After that, I will surround the perimeter of the helipad with some bright lanterns! That should make it clear the helipad is you know, for landing helicopters!"
2. Help guide the helicopter to the helipad.
> "Here comes the fun part. First, using the lighter and flares, I will create a trail of sparkly sparks leading to the helipad to give the helicopter pilot a general path to follow. With each ribbon snugly wrapped around a handheld lantern (or a torch/glowstick, if I run out of lanterns), I will then Moonblast on a nearby twig to (hopefully) draw the attention of the pilot. From there, I will simply guide the helicopter across the path of sparkly sparks using the handheld lanterns/torches/glowsticks/whatever, just like they do at the airport."
3. Find a way to quickly but safely unload all the helicopter's cargo.
> "Now comes the hard part. I have feelers that I can use to carry some light loads, but I don't have hands. Hmmmm... Do we have any of those dollies they use for carrying cargo? If we do, then good! If we don't, then I might build a platform on wheels with wood planks and nails. Also, a ramp would make things simpler, especially considering that I don't have hands. I'll try finding a sheet of plywood or metal (eugh) to fulfill that purpose."
4. Find a secure place to store the cargo for future use.
> "According to my trusty map, there's a bunker near the armory? Huh. If that isn't locked, then that'll be the perfect place to store the cargo since it's close to a bunch of weapons, which might deter any possible intruders. If the bunker is locked, then I'll just store the cargo in the armory itself, as that's the next best option."
