Mountain inside Rekes

A great obsidian mountain with a dormant volcano within.

Ramsay peeked his head into the mining building. He was relieved to see that there still were two sleds positioned along the wall. One of the sleds had packs and shovels and a couple of picks. It looked like he came just in time. Ramsay cleared his throat loudly. "Excuse me! Anyone here?" He called out. Silence greeted him for all of a few seconds before there was a loud crash and muffled shout. "Oh Ramsey! You scared me." Toffee said as she emerged from the supply closet. In he...

Alexander waited patiently on the small docks of Sanquine Cove. ((He could see a large shipping vessel between the two mountain cliffs. A small boat was slowly moving into the dock.))

The small boat finally made it to the dock and one of the dock hands quickly tied the rope that was tossed to them. Out stepped two Tsabhua. One a silver appaloosa, and the other...

Moon Stone stepped out of the clinic for a brief moment. Everyone had gone home except for Jermaul. He had stayed a little longer to finish scrubbing down the corners of the window. ((Both suns could be seen high overhead. The bigger of the two had reached its highest point and was starting to go down. And the smaller one was still climbing. The black snow capped mountain stood majestically over the snow covered evergreen trees that encircled the village.)) Her first client shou...

((Moon Stone stepped out of her own small hut and into the brisk cold air of Rekes. The black snow capped mountains shadowed the evergreens that lined the village. The snow had fallen again making it harder to see the trail that had been worn down from days past. )) She had clients coming to the clinic today and she needed to make sure everything was clean and in its place. She was still waiting on several supplies. She made her way down the trail toward a squat round building when a...

They were becoming one of her best diplomats. Hopefully they would be up to the next challenge she had for them. When the last of the villagers willing to help in the winter festival had gotten their assignment. Kya motioned for Alexander and Kadense to come over. They both walked toward her. Alexander had the list fold...

Moon Stone looked at the letter that had come through on her pad. This was the first time DPIP had written to her. She hit the button to open the message. Instantly there was a little happy jingle and a message popped into view. Moon Stone, it has come to our attention that the bioluminescent gene has not been studied yet. We require a sample. We have in our records that there is a young Belemoid with the gene. Please get us a sample of her blood. ...

((The sky had a soft purple tint with no sign of clouds. The cold air nip at Kya's nose as she glanced down at her roughly drawn map.)) She had placed the stall with the candied rats' tails in the far corner of the grounds between the main house and the indoor garden. She didn't think there would be much demand for them. But she had promised the owner of the little shop a spot. "Hi Kya." Alexander greeted her with a wave of his hand as he stepped out of the smallish building that was g...

((The sky was a clear faint purple tint. The larger of the two suns was high in the sky, whereas the smaller one was just clearing the black points of the mountain. The evergreen trees glinted with white snow, now frozen to the tree limbs. Moon Stone could see her breath in the frigid air. The snow under her feet had a thin layer of ice on top so that with each step there was a slight crunching sound right before the snow gave way.)) Moon Stone was following a trail of footprints throu...

Alexander winced as he bent down to pick up the remote he had just dropped on the floor. The burn wound on his side pulled and tugged on the bandage he had on under his vest. He tried his best to turn his wince into a grunt, acting like it was a bigger deal to pick up the remote than needed. He was taking Kel's place of coming and helping Cassandra since the cave-in accident had left the leader of their village pretty much bedridden. The visiting physician had told him that he was not ...

Moon Stone placed a cold washcloth on Kel's forehead She and Kya had replaced or added the many linen wraps on his body. Kel had woken up in the night and seemed to know where he was but then after an hour had gone back to sleep. ((The storm had raged all night long. It hammered at the walls and made the window shutters raddle. Moon Stone had opened the door at one point and had to quickly shut it before the hallway filled with the white snow.)) She was glad that the storm had f...

Toffee grunted as she pulled the makeshift gurney behind her. ((Kel lay motionless on top of it. His back paws and tail dragged on the ground. Deep ruts in the snow marked the winding path back to the mine they had just left. )) Toffee noticed that the trees up ahead were thinning and knew they were getting close. She threw her weight into the makeshift straps and hauled harder. Toffee was huffing and puffing when she made it to the edge of the colony. "Help! I need Help!" Toffe...

((A small animal, with small round ears and a long tail scurried from the room on its six legs. Moon Stone saw a flash of grey as the huldah ran from the light of the hallway. )) "I swear they are multiplying!" Moon Stone exclaimed as she flipped on the overhead lights. She saw three more of the huldah, all a different color of grey, scurrying across the empty counters and down across the floor to disappear behind some shelving. "I need these gone! How are we supposed to ha...

Kel took the miner's helmet off the hook and twisted it around until he could get to the back of the lamp. He opened up the back and took out the used batteries and put in new ones. It was always best to just replace batteries and not wait for the light to go out. More than likely it would go out while in some dark cave and trying to replace the batteries in the dark was just a bit tricky. Kel clicked the last battery into place when Toffee walked in. She had a large pack cinched ...

Kel grabbed the golden wheat and pulled the plant up root and all and placed it in the wheelbarrow that sat beside him. To his right Toffee was hard at work harvesting the wheat. Her wheelbarrow was quickly filling up and they would soon have to take it inside the harvest house where those in the village knew more about preparing the plant to get the much needed heads of grain. Kel was just glad that he was not in that group. ((Kel and Toffee had been working since suns up and now the suns we...
