((The afternoon sun glimmers on the ripples of the lively pond. The sound of young xunari playing and birds chirping fill the air. The breeze lifted the children's kites in the sky and made the giant mushrooms dance to a gentle tune.)) And there Tezcatlipoca sits, stuck indoors, window in his view, and bored out of his mind. ((The bright light of the outside sun blinding next to the glow of bioluminescent fungi inside.)) Yet he couldn't look away. He isn't the type to frolic outside, but Ycth...

Though those that made their homes under the water lived in a far different environment than those above the surface, they still had valuable insights and shouldn't be discounted. Glow, Whiteout, and Ambergris were visiting Sapient's tribe that lived in the depths of the ocean, and both Comet and Mistwatch had begged to come along. Glow was fairly sure they only wanted to look at the fish, but giving them a trip couldn't hurt. As their colony didn't have a dock as it wasn't ...

"What do you mean the flyer's broken?" Spatter stared up at Splash, blinking disgruntledly, wrench held in her tail. "I mean it's broken." Nova flicked Splash lightly with his tail as Noodle stepped in. "How broken…?" "Well, you technically could fly it. But it's a coin toss about how far you'd get before you go crashing down in flames." Noodle and Nova exchanged a look, and even Splash seemed put off by that. "How long will it take to f...

"This shemesh has been very good for the nukaps," Ycthuthrheth explains as it follows a black tsabhua, a pink tsabhua, and a yellow wingless aerobic tark'ee further into the fungal swamps. "In fact, it's been too good. Leave them be, and they might wreak havoc on the ecosystem." Citria tilts her head at Ycthuthrheth. "Wouldn't flowering hounds typically get them?" "Nomads hunted them down. A uh, 'preemtive protection' of their livestock if you will," sighed Tezcatlipoca, claw qu...

A Tsabhua whelp was trekking through the thick forests of the L'hatzif. ((The ground was soaked, a wet squelch with every step a constant reminder that he was trekking through a swamp.)) Zephyr's paws now coated in mud as he continued to travel along the terrain, he would stop every so often and look upwards towards the tops of the mushrooms which created such a dense forest. ((It was Mid-Shemesh a time to avoid areas with multiple Crees Monolith as they were in spore, and would continue to b...

((The night was so dark that the exploration team had been struggling to get through the brush – slapping themselves in the faces with ferns and stumbling around in the pitch-black. You couldn't have told the tsabhua from the kukuri, their forms all-black down to only their voices and blinking eyes. All until a bright light had filtered through the distance. "This way," March Hare had breathed,...

"The herd of Hojenst is getting too big." Alexander stated as he walked into the main building where all the adults of the village were discussing the plans for the year. Moonstone turned from where she was talking to Kel. "What do you mean, too big?" "There are too many. They are devastating the fields and the trees. Yesterday a belemoid welp almost got trampled when the herd got spooked." Alexander answered. "We could always use more of their meat. The winter was hard o...

Noodle, dissatisfied with the compendium DPIP had sent their colony about the effects of the local flora, had decided to take matters into zir own hands. Nova and Splash had been - unwillingly - roped into this scheme, but when Noodle promised that ze wouldn't send them out for basaraytz fruit anymore, the two readily agreed. How bad could sampling some unknown flora be, anyways? Noodle wasn't stupid, and had asked the natives that lived in the area which plants were toxic, ...

"What do I do with my hands?"

Literature
Although feeding the queen would've been enough for Skritch, and the prince's reward had been generous, the starving royal family necessitated more food. Still, they hadn't brought back the meaty hojenst steak requested by the stern old king, nor the leaping jaebo wanted by the princess. "Which do we hunt first?" Skritch tapped his chin, considering the options—bunny stew wasn't so awful of an idea. Hivoo, a slate tsabhua, regarded him with a gracious smile. "It doesn't matt...

((A flock of chattering Aerobics flew over the vast Mireh hillsides; their strong wings carrying them on the winds which rustled the grasses and flora creating a wonderfully peaceful ambiance to a wonderfully beautiful day. Ashdod let out a contented sigh as yet another wave of peace washed through her like the wind washed through the grasses around her.)) Mireh was quite different so far inland, but similar enough to her waters that nothing felt too foreign. As if beckoned by her intense pea...

The start of mid-shemesh, marking the start of the warmer season, was marked with a party by the tribe that lived in the canyons and ravines. A ceremonial opening of the extra ventilation they kept closed during the winter, a time for airing out and cleaning before the true heat of the desert settled in. Sunlight and Inky were visiting for the celebration, bringing some gifts and snacks. Some others of Skyward colony were there to celebrate, but they were off in the crowd as Sunlight...

"Pest control!" Resounded the powerful voice of Thylla, the black tsabhua with a large tan underbelly. She carried an oversized net over her shoulder, a byproduct of the fishing industry that she'd snagged from next to some old shed or country store. "Free huldah cleaning!" Hivoo called out, cupping her hands around her maw to try to project the sound of her voice further across the flat, muddy bay. She was Tylla's helper who, like her, originated from the colony of Tsidal. "...

When they'd discovered a lost whelp in Mireh, none of the Sea-Cucumbers Colony had ever raised a child before. Nobody knew how old Skritch was, or even if he was truly from this planet, while Sharkbait and Shenzi were both newly aged adults. Nevertheless, ever since they'd discovered Polly, the bright green parakeet tark'ee, it had been their duty to care for her–in many ways, bringing their fractured and distrusting colony together. After their submarine crashed in Mireh, and their ...

The flyer set down in the fields of Mierh on a landing pad set up and maintained by the local tribes so that the vehicles weren't landing willy nilly all over their lands. Sunlight, Spatter, and Marin stepped out, blinking in the light, and looked around uncertainly. Glow had described what they needed to find and what not to collect, and showed them examples. ((But it was still different, going from the tall mountains of Rekes to the rolling plains and grasslands where the grasses t...

"Eeeugh" The sound that escaped Pen's lips in front of the DPIP representative was complete mild disgust, followed by her looking surprised. She smiled apologetically at the representative who had just furrowed their brows at her. The poor woman had been doing her best to show Pen around, get the basics of everything on Xiunus instilled into Pen. And the final task for the day had been for the DPIP rep to give Pen her own little colonist. Or, rather, a sneak peek of who she coul...
