Welcome to Gaia! ::

Isi smiled and said her good nights to the cheif and his family, but still worry went through her head. She looked to the others an then said.

" im gonna go back and further watch them, king" she spoke as she walked over to him.

King looked to isi and then to Kanti
" we will talk more when we meet, i will find you or the other way around" he smiled as he let isi climb on his back.

" i'm going to take Isi and watch the pale faces more, perhapes i can speak to one of the soquili there" he smiled as he started to head out of the village.

((@w@ before i get to into this im gonna stop, i have to go to bed soon XD))

chepi sighed as she moved around in her teepee, there was an unease in the air and outside she could hear people speaking in exited hushed tones. Perplexed and curious she slipped out from her teepee and glanced around. "Whats Going on?" She asked, hearing broken words like pale face, and Ship. She furrowed her brow and began to look around for princess Soquili, She would know the true meaning to all this rubbish.

The maid glanced around, looking for the princess. "Princess Soquili?" She called out loudly aftering seeing a glimpse of her. "Princess? What is going On?" she called after the fleeting figure, everyone seemed to be wanting to know. Chepi felt her cries drowned out by the calls of others and sighed. Crossing her arms over her chest she sighed again. "Hmm, How can I get to the bottom of this..." she asked herself.. Everyone seemed to be pointing towards the shore side, talking of the water and the beach... perhaps that was the source of all this. Biting her bottom lip the chepi struck out from the village out in the direction of the shoreside, across the plains. She was going to get to the bottom of this one way or another.

Water lilly slowly creeped behined a tree looking at some pale skin natives she had no clue who they were and what they were doing here she saw some soquilis with things in there mouths and lumps on there back it looked horrible''poor soquilis''she said softly to her self as she looked a bit more at the pale skins((i hope this is ok if i join sweatdrop oh and this is what she looks like ))

Then water lilly got up and slowly creeped past some pale skins then ran back to the camp she ran into her teepee and sat down her mother was wondering were shes been''oh nowere''water lilly said to her mother then she walked out her teepee and went to look at some soquilis she thought they we beautiful but then she remembered the soquilis with thos things on there backs and in there mouths it made her shiver

An acrid smell was what woke her up; sharp and smoky and unrecognizable. Murmuring to herself, Cowrie shifted on the sand. She felt itchy and hot all over, and when she opened an eye had to snap it shut against the sun. Ortzi cawed from overhead. Making an effort to sit up, she finally realized where she was - on the beach, still waiting for the Soquili to come back.

What was that smell? She got slowly to her feet, making the seagull shuffle along his branch, and stepped over to the tree, where it rose on a mound of dune. By squinting she could make out what was happening. There was a camp of sorts on the beach. Strange men, all over the camp, were cutting down the trees and servicing their ships, huge ships on the shore and the smoke was thicker than ever down there.

Cowrie leaned on the tree, felt her knees go weak. 'What's happening?' she wondered, baffled and suddenly worried. This...what was this? What if they found her home? Backing away from the scene, she whistled to Ortzi and fled to her teepee. It was thankfully undiscovered, but she wasted no time in packing. Even that was cut short - the sound of an incredible BOOM splitting the air sent her into a terrified rush.

It wasn't often she visited the village, but this was an emergency. Cowrie set out on foot, making sure to keep out of sight, while the seagull winged in the sky overhead. Thinking of the pink Soquili, the girl felt sad. She'd probably been scared away by the noise. As proven by their encounter before, she wasn't a particularily brave (or at least friendly) mare. Well, she would be happy to know if the mare was all right or not. That was what mattered.

{*dives in!*}

"Alright." Chamain looked at her soquili and pet her. "Every thing will be okay." Turning back to the chief she asked more questions. "What are those other horses I see with them? They have these blankets on their backs for those pale faces to sit on." Wondering why, and how they might be different from soquilis, she knew that Awnae would have had felt uncomfortable with one her back.

Looking back from the chief and her owner, she smiled. Not understanding a single word they were saying. Wha?... Awnae wanted to meet these humans everyone seems to be spying on. If they're not nice...they will have them selve's hurt by me. Shaking her head, she re-thought. No, no, no. I must stop my self, and let the humans take care of them.

Her glistening aqua eyes looked at these... beings? They were almost like her, but she would never go as low as comparing herself to these pale-face beings. Lulu frowned, they were using something to create earthquakes. Perhaps something as sharp as one of her stone knives?

She twitched again, as something... some horrible crashing sound was heard not too far away. She could hear whistles, commands... but somehow didn't understand all of it. Too much noise, too much disruption. The air got even thicker, perhaps unhealthier and Lulu decided it was time to go back.

The sun was shining brightly, that is when eveything else went quiet. Maybe the pale-faces decided to take a break... decide to use their powers some other day. She crept back into her teepe, inside many herbs and other substances could be seen hanging, swining or just there.

Lulu caughed a few more times before exiting her teepee. "What are they doing?!" She hissed softly. Even though her eyes were gray that did not mean she was blind, she could see smoke. Lots of it, around her teepee floating above the riverstream... things were working where the pale-faces stayed.

Only this type of smoke wasn't like the herbs she usually placed fire on. It made her feel sick, it made her cough... was this some type of evil spirit?

Alona's ears flickered as the booms sounded across the clearing. Something large fell, but what? Alona thought as her eyes skittered across the herd. She was worried. She had a duty to fullfill and she was worried that whatever was creating the noise, it would affect the herd. Moki hug close to Alona as she paced the ground restlessly. She wanted to find out what it was, and what sort of danger the herd may be in, but she couldn't leave, she had not only the herd to watch out for but her three foals as well. She spotted a flicker of red and blue darting across the clearing heading towards the forest, Kanti!

Moki was startled by all the noise. He didn't like it, and not to mention it was bothering his mother. She kept pacing around and around and he was having trouble trying to keep up with her. He was afraid of the trembles that the earth gave and stayed close to her, not daring to venture out towards the noise.

Kanti heard the noise and was curious. What on earth could be creating such a racket. Her beads trembled as the ground shook from the noise. She was slightly startled by it. She knew of nothing that could create such a loud and awful racket. Maybe it was those new people that had reached the land. She had heard other soquilis, as well as the villagers talking about new visitors, pale ones coming to the land but Kanti had yet to see one. She continued closer until the trees started to thin out. She apporaced with even more care than before. She caught a glimpse of a pale human before she say Hok'ee and hearing the loud KABOOM!
