The heat was almost oppressive compared to the relative cool of the Talon, and it took Rychel's breath away for a moment. Still she adjusted quickly. It took a bit longer for her eyes to adjust to the brightness of the light, reflected off the sand beneath her feet. She'd given the tranporter operator coordinates to an area near a nice place to hike, but that wouldn't require any advanced climbing skills. She wasn't certain if Dakbar knew how to climb, or if he'd want to learn, so she decided to start out easy.
The holoimage that she'd found of the area didn't even begin to do it justice, especially given the fact that it was still early in the day there, and the sky was still colored from the recent sunrise. The rocks were similar to Earth sandstone, and the resulting color gradation in the rocky plateaus was beautiful. Rychel imagined that at sunset it would be hard to tell where the sunset ended and the plateaus began.
She took a few steps forward and found a small lizard-like creature, although it was unlike any other lizard she'd ever seen before. First, it was pink in hue, and as Rychel looked closer, she saw that a lot of the sand was pink as well. There were also grains of orange, yellow, red... many shades that she didn't typically attribute to sand. The second noteworthy thing about the lizard was that it had tiny, translucent wings, and as Rychel approached, it spread them, preparing to fly away. The light filtering through the membranous wings took on a light pink hue, fractured by the red of the creature's veins. "Wow, Helik, look at it!" She coo'd, trying to keep her ton down so as to avoid startling the little creature.
