It huffed softly and looked out at the foreign landscape.

He smiled and scratched its head. "You're like my daughter, you know."

It chirped in acknowledgement, but kept watching the landscape.

"You're sweet, but if something annoys you, you make no effort to hide it." He chuckled, but soon after a sad expression fell on his face.

The bird glanced over at him, then turned all the way around and stared at him curiously.

"I'm okay. I just... I miss her. I was hurt really bad, and I think I was dying before I came here... I don't think I'll ever be able to see her again."

The small pebbles are shinier than they should be if they were ordinary rocks. Some shift under your weight, but some are evidently imbedded in the ground. Rust anchors nodes to them, lifting loose ones out of the ground. The group gets near a sort of mound with a small cave, iron stitched together into an overhang. “Watch out for that. Copper demons sometimes hide in there.” Rust says, pointing at it.

Snapping out of his mood, Kal's head turned to the cave. He nodded, then his spirits seemed to fall again.

The cave is small, maybe a foot high and two feet wide. Within it are two passages that seem to curve around into one another through the wedge shaped mound. A breeze picks up some rust haze, and it is visibly sucked into the cave as it passes by at a diagonal. To see this better, Rust expands. “If there is a copper demon there, it is very small. So it is safe.”

Adtae inspected it. This land… it was dead. Not the normal dead that released Andharik energy… but an absence of that Andharik energy that heralded life. What are the copper demons?

“They are like me, but scary. They eat people - swarms, not you - and hide places to attack them. They are made of something different, something less alive; copper is the sky people word for it.”

Adtae cocked his head. Interesting… and dangerous, it sounds.

“Yes, they are dangerous. They still attack sky people, so they may attack you. They cannot eat them, though, and I do not think they can see them well. So I think you could scare one away.”

Adtae nodded. How far are these sky people?

Rust contracts. “If they are where they were, around - distance is hard to tell you. I am going to the planet spirit, and then I will go to where the sky people are. There are markers at the two planet spirits; they tell you where to find things. The sky people were going to put one there, when I was still with them. If it is there, it will talk to them and let them come to us.” Rust points at one of the sharp metal bushes, around fifty feet away, perhaps. “That blade plant is three medium numbers away. Twelve of those make a big number, and twelve of those make a very big number. This is more counting than we do usually, but twelve of those would be a very very big number. I would say the planet spirit is three very very big numbers away - we were close, which is good.” @Spark of Hope @Through The Living Glass

For reference, a very big number would be around half a mile. So a very very big number is six miles, making the total distance eighteen miles, or six hours of walking. Also, I made that counting system up on the spot. I figured base twelve made sense for several reasons. (You’re not the only one who’s being forced to worldbuild, Wrath. I did want this to happen, but I still don’t know what I’ll say if you ask the sky people inconvenient questions. Please do, though. Forced worldbuilding is helpful.)

I did the math once, and it made sense.

But then I did it again, and it didn’t…

I trust the first time more anyways.

Adtae cocked his head, doing multiplication. Then getting confused. “So… ok.”

x=medium number 
3x=50 feet

12x=200 feet=big number 

12^2(x)=2400 feet=0.45 miles=very big number 

12^3(x)≈6 miles=very very big number 

12^3(x)*3≈18 miles=distance to pole 

Three mile per hour pace means 6 hours of walking. 

Rust sets up some segments as an abacus, trying to help. (It doesn’t work, because I don’t think abacuses can do exponents, or even really multiplication.)

He smiled sadly. His poor daughter… she was alone with those men, who knew what they would do to her, and he couldn’t protect her…
