Abelain Narv'uk
The Bloodseeker
The warmth and humidity swarmed over the newcomers immediately, swallowing them whole and leaving them encompassed in heat. It contrasted heavily with the artificially cooled shuttle that had brought them down to the surface. The air tasted differently too, much fresher than the recycled oxygen that flooded over any ship that soared the stars. It would be difficult to see the stars upon the surface, even if it were the dead of night. One would need to escalate past the vast foliage covering this portion of the planet.
The distant calls of wildlife gave another example of the rugged wilderness that set the stage for their escapades. Animals; prey and predator, stalked in the darkness, hidden beneath the shade of infinite plant-life. There was a sort of familiarity with the ecosystem, even if it was vastly different from his home; the similarities ending at the variety of life scattered throughout the world, as well as the warmth. It still beat the confines of the Paladin, at least in the mind of the explorer. He took a step upon the ground, fully leaving behind the shuttle and feeling cracked and dry dirt beneath his feet.
A current of wind blew forcefully through the air, rustling trees and exotic foliage. The breeze shaking the fabric of the environment with such force that it erupted into a roar of shaking nature, threatening to drown out the engine of the shuttle with it's intensity. As quickly as the sound had begun, it ended, dying out into obscurity and leaving only a faint memory of it's power. Ahead of them stood an uncut path of plant-life, barely discernible from it's surroundings. It held a sort of tactical ingenuity that could not be denied, natural camouflage that required no additional work.
Abelain stood tall, eyes glancing expectantly ahead of him as if though the arrival of something else had triggered within his mind, subtle imaginary precognition influencing his thoughts. Yet, nothing came from the bush. His head turned, examining his newly minted Esh-Kah guardian and wondering briefly how he handled the sweltering jungle that lay ahead of them. They were here to discover something concealed, hinted at only by the presence of the path. According to information; granted by sources somewhat less than reputable, there lay a structure beyond the path, and within that structure lay a prism; a holocron.
The Arue'tii had searched frantically throughout the galaxy for such devices, awaiting the discovery of one so that he could finally methodically extract it's knowledge. He took a breath, scenting the air for anything familiar, though nothing tickled his olfactory senses, and he made the conclusion that it was safe to continue their journey into the wild. He was locked upon the path, though his voice echoed out from within the 'smile' that spread across his face, "Are you ready to proceed, Blazing Eye?"
