[@Ashevelendar] [@BluetheElf] Melanie stared at the tree creature for several moments, slowly coming to realize that this creature seemed as confused as herself. [color=f26522]"I'm just a girl,"[/color] she said, slowly lowering her arm as it seemed maybe the tree would not strike her after all. And now that she studied it, she realized it wasn't exactly a tree, but rather some sort of ... person ... who had very bark-like skin and things that looked very much like drooping leaves. A sophisticated ghillie suit perhaps? Yes, that had to be it. She wasn't yet willing to concede that the impossible had happened. [color=f26522]"I.. I don't know who Sempara is,"[/color] she stammered out, thinking the word sounded like someone's name. She turned as another voice spoke to them and felt a small wave of relief when she saw Bluestar, assuming at first that he was human. It wasn't until he called her 'round ear woman' that she took note of the large pointed ears sticking out of his hair and felt her mouth fall open in surprise yet again. He reminded her instantly of an elf from a fantasy novel. She shook her head at his question, taking the opportunity to scramble to her feet. [hider=Melanie Stats] Health - 10/10. Food Gauge - 8/10.

His pleasantly excited state of mind, as well as his conclusion that he'd been abducted by aliens, allowed him to study the interaction between the others with a calmer state of mind. And by the shocked and confused looks all around, it didn't take long to realize that none of them was the one responsible for transporting them here. Small beads of sweat formed on his forehead due to the uncomfortably warm climate, but he ignored it. [color=00aeef]"We've been brought here by....,"[/color] the white skinned and white haired young man was going to say 'aliens', but paused a moment as they were all technically aliens now. [color=00aeef]"... by some kind of beings from another world. Maybe for an experiment. Or maybe simply to make introductions?"[/color] [hider=Gerlach Stats] Health - 10/10. Food Gauge - 7/10.
