"No; generally it's pretty warm, unless you get close to the poles."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Ah. I meant... 'decent'."

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

"Depends on what you're looking for."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Good enough. Uhm... so are you... a bird?"

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

"A Winged."

Quote

Fyi: their appearance is Rito-esque, but more human-sized and with smaller wings in proportion to their body

 

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Cool. I'm what you guys might call 'not from around here.'"

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

"...I can tell."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Interplanetary travel is a thing around here, right?"

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

"Yes." Allera paused for a moment. "How... would you not know that? Where are you from, anyway?"

[Channelknight Fadran]

Ayia squinted up in a sort of concerned furrow. "Not... here. Or anywhere near here. Listen, can we touch down for a few minutes? I can... explain my situation."

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Allera looked behind them nervously. The stardragon wasn't anywhere within eyesight, but it was hard to tell with the storm.

"Follow me," they said, flying off quickly, but at a pace they were reasonably sure Ayia could follow.

Pretty bad. It's evening-ish, and the storm's definitely not helping.

Great. Ayia's 'flight' will be revealed in time, then

just timeskip to... wherever it is we're going?

 

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

The cave, which opened up on the side of a hill, appeared in front of Allera suddenly; giving the impression of a monster's gaping maw, about to swallow them whole. Inside, it was dark, and smelled vaguely musty; Allera groped around inside until they found where they had attached a torch to the wall. As they curled their wing around it, the red stone embedded in their forehead began to glow, and a small fire erupted from the top of the torch, illuminating the stone walls of the cave.

Allera gestured for Ayia to follow, then, on foot, delved deeper into the cave.

[Channelknight Fadran]

"So what should I call you?"

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Allera thought for a moment. "Lyri," they decided.

[Channelknight Fadran]

"That's a cute name."

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Allera didn't know if they should feel complimented or offended, so they stayed silent and continued walking, their claws making clack-clack noises on the stone ground.

[Channelknight Fadran]

"So you guys have interplanetary travel here? Is that, like... spaceships? Or portals?"

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

"Spaceships. Hyperdrives." It was unsettling having to explain something that, in their mind, everyone knew. The basic facts of the universe.

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Great. Yeah, I got here because of portal opened up in the middle of nowhere and dropped me into that storm out there."

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

"Where are you from, anyway? Another... galaxy?"

[Channelknight Fadran]

Ayia shrugged. "Probably? Maybe? It's a little complicated, but basically I'm not from... here."

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Great. Thanks. That helps so much. "So... if 'where are you from' is the wrong question... would 'who are you' be a better one?" Allera raised their beak at Ayia - a Winged gesture of kindness, though they realized that the person might not know what it meant.
