A Hidden Gem

By Othermoons ・ 0 ・ 0

Depths had been thinking about forging his own set of knives for a while. Not because he disliked the colony's stock - they were fine knives - but he wanted to make something himself. Noodle was coming along to learn some, and Depths helped ze with zir breathing mask before slipping into the water. They were after a rare ore that was only prevalent in the oceanic crust, and had asked some guides from the local ocean colony to help. Dragoo and Arazias were waiting for them just below th...

When Glow had been told about Seafoam and Snickerdoodle's encounter with the stranger who had tried to talk to them underwater in what appeared to have been some sort of sign language, she was curious. She had convinced Seafoam and Snickerdoodle to ask if the stranger - Sapient, they found out - would be willing to teach them the language. It had seemed useful to know, even if just to communicate underwater when fishing. The native agreed to visit, and by chance, a whelp was visiting...

Literature

The depths of the Ocean were a mystery to most, but Seafoam was curious. Snickerdoodle was also cautiously curious, but when Gerralt and even Ray said that they would come too, she nodded and gave in. If even a whelp would go along - despite the fact that e could breathe underwater - Snickerdoodle figured she could, too. There were devices they and Gerralt could use to breathe underwater, as they didn't have gills like the aquatics. They covered their beaks, with an extra pair of goggl...

((The mountains were… a strange new home for Spark. Peaks that soared high into the blue, blue sky, forests, and jagged glowing crystals. The peaks at least he could find a touchstone in the underwater mounts and ravines of the ocean - but the trees? The glowing 'bones'? It was all so new and so different. He was… more than a little lost, he'd admit, but thankfully one of the colonists that had adopted him sensed this and set up some time for him to learn from others.)) Spark st...

Literature

Though the desert of Issiq was wildly different than the mountain peaks of Rekes, Bloodstone thought there were some similarities. The difficulty of growing food and plants and the severity of the weather… she thought they could compare some notes. Thinking similarly, or perhaps merely wanting to get out of the mountains for a time, Noodle and Snickerdoodle had accompanied her. They stepped onto the stones of the streets around the transit center for Boti's tribe, ((and the heat hit ...

Though most had survived the avalanche last week, there had been a few that had been lost to the onslaught of snow and ice. Thankfully there had not been any from his colony, but Depths had still volunteered to stand vigil at the site of the avalanche. It was going to be below freezing in the mountains that night, so he packed accordingly. As he headed to the place, feet crunching on the ice and snow on the trail, he heard a pattering of footsteps behind him and looked back. "I ...

Seafoam was, frankly, more than a little tired to have been sent out on this errand. Rocky was joining them, and for that they were grateful, but it didn't change the facts that they needed some tolaat eggs. Why? Seafoam hadn't asked. Some sort of medicine or something, they'd assumed. Rocky had just seemed happy to get somewhere warmer. The prairies of Mireh weren't necessarily toasty in the winter, but as the pair considered a giant hole in the ground, Seafoam decided that it was pos...

((Issun walked off the gangplank and onto a wooden dock. The colonists around him, mostly reef belemoids, worked hard to finish securing the boat. Behind him he could hear the shuffling of feet as someone else walked down the gangplank.)) Issun turned around to see what exactly was making his friend shuffle his feet like that. A tall black and grey Tsabhua with light blue markings on his head and neck that looked vagally like fire, was holding a pad in one hand and a brain teaser in his other...

The desert of Issiq was hot, to say the least. Depths and Glow had accompanied Noodle here for their physician training, but had ended up taking care of their own business. They had recognized a friendly face here - Boti - and had started taking with them. They had also met a friend of Maedra and Harbringer: a draconic named Gerralt. They had been chatting with them about killing time while Noodle trained, when Boti frowned thoughtfully. "If you want… it'd be hard work, but I'...

Literature

Wintertime in Rekes was always brutal. With the already thin resources, the thick snow that fell and refused to melt for months. In other words, it was avalanche season. Depths had been hoping that they could go through the season without a major one, but his hopes were dashed when he was out on a foraging run and heard the rumble of an avalanche close by. ((The trees around him shook, shaking snow from their branches, and a puff of snow showed over their boughs, white against the blue sky.))...
