((The ocean was a place to be respected more than anything else. This was especially true off of the Rekes coast, as the continental shelf rose sharply from the depths to the shore, making the surf violent and unpredictable. Jagged outcrops of stone scattered the surf as well, some poking above the water, others only visible in the troughs of the waves.)) Sky soared out above it, watching the never-ending fight between the waves and the shore before diving into the calmer waters past ...

Ambergris, Depths, and Sky were not expecting to meet an offworlder as they prepared to dive for ore. They had been gathering on the beach, fitting their breathing masks, when Sky had pointed to a strange creature fishing on the shore. They looked like nothing any of them had ever seen before - they had a mane like a tsabhua, but four legs and wings like an aerobic. They also didn't seem to have a beak, and had a long, spiked tail. "Hello!" they called out cheerfully to the ...

Depths and Ambergris waited for Midnight by the transport pad, as Sky did his best to convince Garnet that what they were going to do was boring and Garnet didn't need to come along. Garnet just stared up at him, refusing to move, and eventually Sky sighed and gave up as the hopper came into view. "We're going to have to take xem along," he said resignedly. Ambergris raised an eyebrow as the aerial vehicle landed. "Did you explain that we're just going to be looking at rocks?"...

The tunnels that Depths' colony lived in were tame compared to the old ones that ran through the mountains. Whether they were the remnants of lava tubes, the wear of water, or were the veins of some long-ago beast as the stories went, he didn't know. What mattered was that they were eerie. But, they had needed minerals and ores, and so he was gritting his teeth and going in. Ambergris had brought from friends from elsewhere, Solar and Spring, to give some insights into mining as they w...

Having found what they needed in the depths of the ocean, Ambergris and Depths were hoping to introduce Ma'groth and Mordo'kai to Boti's tribe. Illisandre was busy elsewhere, so Mordo'kai was bringing Ma'groth along to help out. More hands the better, as the saying went, and so they met at the transport pad on the ground atop the ravine where Boti's home lay. Sky had wanted to accompany them and was circling above, barely having to flap zir wings with the desert updrafts. Even in the w...

Despite the nice haul from the mine on the ocean floor last time, they'd found they'd still needed some more materials. So Depths, Ambergris, and Nova were once again meeting Illisandre and Mordo'kai on the seashore, ((surf roaring and rushing next to them as they stepped out onto the sands.)) Ambergris waved at two familiar forms down the beach, and Illisandre and Mordo'kai waved back. The five of them met, and Nova introduced himself, before they turned to the surf once more. ((It wa...

Depths and Ambergris stepped out of the flyer uncertainly, while Parhelion squeaked in delight and ran off to go play in the waves. The adults stood, looking around, then waved at a pair standing outside their own flyer. Illisandre, hearing that their colony was in need of some minerals, had suggested that they could do a joint mining run - they needed some ore from the ocean floor as well, and the more people the better in the depths. Illisandre hurried over, carrying a breathing ma...

Kel looked out across the vast red orange sands of Issiq's desert. ((The different hues of reds and oranges made the land strangely beautiful. And the two suns shone brightly above him and his two companions as the trudged through the shifting sands)) ((In the distance arches dotted the landscape. The desert looked mostly dead except for the occasional cactus plant that grew in the harsh warmer climate. )) "I wouldn't touch that." Dogwood, a black and white Reef Belemiod said to...

"I don't see what all this fuss is about gold," Glow complained, stepping out of the flyer and into ((the dry heat of the desert, sand crunching under her feet.)) "Well, it's shiny," Noodle pointed out, shouldering zir bag as ze stepped onto the sands after Glow, "and people love their shiny metals." "People use it to make jewelry," Depths pointed out, stepping out of the flyer and immediately wilting in the heat, "but yeah, some people get… crazy about it." Ambergris a...
