With temperatures rising over 143°C (289.40°F) in most areas, the only relief is during the nights when it is much cooler. All travelers are advised to keep to the local towns on the desert's outskirts and avoid traveling too far from civilization. (+3 Endurance, +2 Defense)

Liara 1.1

Water doesn't belong in a desert, or in the heat.

Why then, was she here? That was the question Liara was asking herself as she padded through the hot sands, her water droplets slowly rising into the air. She didn't feel the heat, but, she did feel annoyance. The Hydrokuhna was sent here to find something...

She turned around and was greeted by the sight of a lone tumbleweed. How encouraging. A lithe rattlesnake slithered quickly across the sand before disappearing into the dunes. Liara sighed once more and sat there, her tails twitching. She'll take a rest here...




Can I die? Can I die?
I'm just waiting 'til I die
Never dreamed a single dream so kind in my entire life
No one knew, even cared for this fleeting fairy tail
Then it slipped into seething sun and soon it sailed away...

Name- Edel
1/1



      It was deathly hot and brazen backed as the stiff-shifted air swirled in circles around the Aries's sharply purple-hued face. The tug towards the sand-littered ground was quick, gasps of air escaping in small pants of weariness and agony. Something was pulling her to the centre, the middle of this odd dilemma. It soon grasped her senses and pulled foward once more, wobbly, gingery steps taken ever so slowly to ensure no harm would come to the already pained hooves.

      Edel finally sought paradise under a small sandy overhang, and sat down, swirly blue and purple rump making a small cloud of athsma-inducing dust rise, mockingly, into the air. A small lizard flicked it's tail teasingly from it's trot into a small hole beneath the slope in the large dune. It's was a large and perilous trek, but it was worth it to see the jeweled Aries's prize.
The sun was slightly set, so a shadow arced across the large sandbox, barely touched Edel's forehead. That's what she got for wanting something out of her reach.
What a place, The Land of Nothing.

Liara 1.2

She felt the sun slowly set and the chill of the night was slowly gripping the desert. Liara shivered in the cold, shedding a few more droplets of water that drifted up, into the heavens. The stars, so pretty, began to faintly appear in the darkening sky, shining their beautiful glow at the earth below. The Hydrokuhna looked up and oh-so-slightly smiled. She loved the night sky, the celestial treasures.

A small owl hooted somewhere in the darkness. Liara frowned. She would have to find shelter soon. She looked around her, trying to see throught the darkening desert. Ah, there was a small overhang. Perhaps she could find shelter there? The Hydrokuhna quickly padded toward the shelter, anxious to get there as quickly as she could. Who knows what things lurk in the night?

Edel 1.2



     The night was about as foreign to the Aries as her own paws. It was a strange lifestyle that she had wanted to take, live by the stars, the pinpricks of faraway light in the gradated navy sky. The night had started to rush in, filling the sky with a now-visible blue inkblot in the heavens. A fair chill had now gripped the air, the lizards poking their heads out of the burrows and taking deep breaths of the refreshing atmosphere.

    Collapsed against the weak sand barrier, Edel's heart rate finally slowed to a calm beat and allowed her breaths to pace themselves in a much more quieter fashion. The moon was a now silvery-wisped disc in the sky, a fair purple hue near the horizon as the last tendrils of sunset creeped away halfheartedly. The Aries laughed slightly at her stupidity of thinking that it wasn't worth the trip. The journey itself was worth it enough. Her head rolled around and examined her surroundings questioningly as a bright-blue trotting figure came into her line of sight. The laughing quickly subsided and was replaced by a fairly nervous mask. Her eyes blinked, trying to test herself of the sight, then calling out in a smallish voice, sounded as if it was muffled by a blanket.
"Hello?"

Liara 1.3

The Hydrokuhna paused when she heard the voice, uncertain. There was obviously someone there...maybe it was dangerous? No, judging from the voice, it was equally as nervous as she was. "I won't hurt you." She gently called. "I am...a friend. Do not be afraid." She stepped into the moonlight, trying to prove to the creature that she indeed was friendly.

Edel 1.3

   

The female's breathing paced slower by the moment, taking in the sight. What was a hydrokuhna doing in the middle of No Man's Land? Her shell of nervousness cracked bit by bit, a slow smile spreading upon the goat-like animal's lips prominantly. Edel gave a sigh of relief, thankful that the animal didn't look aggressive. But looks could be deceiving, and she kept on her guard. A small bead of nervous sweat rolled down the side of her head.

Ededl gave a slightly apologetic chuckle, and spoke aloud, in a coaxingly sweet voice to let the Kuhn know she wasn't an enemy nor frightful, if the creature even thought of something like that. No one in their right mind would be afraid of a fading blue-purple Aries with asthma. The yellow sandy dunes behind her seemed to be covered with a thin navy film, having taken on the shade of the night.

"You startled me, I'm sorry."

Liara 1.4

Liara noted the Aries' nervousness. "Do you mind if I sit here?" She quietly asked. "I mean...it's getting late and...I don't want to meet anything that might be lurking at night in this desert..." The Hydrokuhna waited for the Aries' answer, her tail sweeping gracefully across the sand. It left a trail of water that quickly evaportated, despite the fact that the night chill was settling in.

Edel 1.4


"You may." The Aries gave a small smile and a dip of her magenta thin-furred head head to show her confirmation. As long as the Kuhna didn't suddenly whip out a claw and threaten to take her on in a duel, it'd be alright. Her cloven hooves were pulled up towards her abdomen in a slight sleeping-dog style pose, so that her curling horns didn't prod her cheeks in the sides.
Her eyes took a quick glance upwards, towards the indigo sky, and haphazardly located the north star in the great blanket. It shone in a blinking sotr of satellite, sort of like a lithe reminder to the weather to dampen down and freeze the inhabitants of this No Man's Land.

She looked back at the Kuhna after a moment or two of analyzing the sky, and gave her a welcoming smile, as if she was welcoming the female hydro-creature into a familiar home for dinner or another festive occasion.
"If we are in the same position, we may as well share the same shelter, no?"
The jewel animal gave a slight laugh that followed her Italian-accent laced question, in a seductive mischief kind of humor.

Liara 2.0

Liara smiled at the Aries' laughter. "I guess so." She scooted a bit closer, trying to conserve body heat. "It's so cold here..." The Hydrokuhna mused. "During the day it's blazing hot, but during the night...it's just so...cold. It's like the desert has a split personality." She paused and laughed at herself. "What am I saying? I'm babbling like an idiot. Oh, did I introduce myself? My name is Liara." She held out a cautious paw, waiting for the Aries to shake it or make some response.

Edel 2--


"That's probably why they call it The Land Of Nothing, no one's ever been able to tame it." Offered the jewel Aries, a small smile across her face. She looked a slightly to her right, watching a lone lizard scuttle into a burrow. Edel then turned back and offered her mauve hoof out, and laid it on the Hydrokuhna's paw in salutation. The sun was now nothing but a memory for that day, as it had finally fallen in a deep sleep below the blue-tinged horizon. The heavens were now covered in a dappling of stars, each beginning to give off their own majestic glow, like the aurora borealis on that faraway continent.
"Well, Miss Liara, I am Edel. A pleasure. So what brings you to these empty lands?"

Liara 2.1

"It's nice to meet you too Edel..." The Hydrokuhna's voice trailed off. "I'm here because...I need to find something..." Liara suddenly gave a shrug. "I'd rather not talk about it. What about you? I mean, you don't seem to like being here..."

Edel 2.1

The Aries's eyes gave a small purplish glint. "I am not alone, then?"
her voice was dark and fairly serious, trying not to betray her inner surprise. Someone else had felt that tug?
"I'm not exactly best friends with the desert myself."
Who would be? The days were scorching hot, the night thin yet vieled with a thick chill that could make a strong man weep. That is, if the strongman is a warmblooded sissy, naturally. The goat-animal gave a small sigh of defeat and amazment, and then looked at the hydro kuhna sitting near her, showing her small smirk of surprise.
"You've got guts, kiddo. Coming out here."

Liara 2.2

Her fur slightly bristled at the word 'kiddo'. She forced herself to calm down as she sighed, "I guess so. My owner's friend sent me here to find something. I have no clue what it is." Liara's face darkened. "But, she said that it was important." The Hydrokuhna suddenly laughed. "What am I saying? She can't even talk!"
