It wasn't the noise of the landing that awoke and alerted the two lone females on the planet to the arrival of some other sentient beings. Nor was the scanning sensors they had long ago shut down, unless one was out on the planet to help keep track. It was the soft howling, hooting, and whooping of many different species of prey animal crying out warnings. The animals had become so accustomed to the Ellorion's non-lethal presence they did not make any noise at their approach.<br/><br/>It did not stop their instincts from knowing a full predator when they smelt and saw them however. The growing cacophony was so loud that the to females jumped from their bunks in surprise and alarm. Sameli moving to turn on the systems fully to see what was out there. Her dark brown eyes reading and scanning the data before growing wide and stumbling backwards a bit into Amadalia.<br/><br/>"It's not them... it's not one of... us. It's not... I don't know what this is, but it's alive and another species. There is an entire team on ground heading our wa- oh.. oh sweet Goddess, they got stuck!" Sameli stated and then proceeded to get dressed, taking some weapons with her. "Ama, I will grab the materials sled. They are quite mired, it might take some time. Be careful, and see if you can get them to stop sinking."<br/><br/>Amadalia nodded once and having already been putting on her gear, turned it on to full brightness. No sense in coming in on them unawares. There was every chance they would shoot first and ask questions later. She strapped some weapons on herself as well, and grabbed the life-vine. She had an idea of how to stop them from sinking, and maybe free a few in the process.<br/><br/>Her small form floated down to the base of the tree, landing on a huge thick root that was above the ground. In fact this is how she traveled, moving faster than any of the Dracolexi would have been capable of, though if that was all her own speed, or that added onto by the suit was a mystery for now. She had placed up her helm so that her face was covered, but it also had a small map that she could read from that way, aiding her in mapping out the quickest route to their location. It would have to be odd to see a small almost gliding, and hopping form floating from tree root to tree root emblazoned in pink, against the dark before a slow dawn. Her figure obviously petite and feminine from the close fitting eco-suit.<br/><br/>It was lucky for her that most of them had their weapons buried beneath the sucking greedy maw of the earth beneath them. Finally she arrived and perched on a nearby tree stump, calculating the best way to effect their rescue. A few cried out as they were sinking alarmingly fast, and her head turned to take the one who was sinking fastest. In the gathering light of dawn, it was quite obvious that they were indeed different. Very much so, with their skin seemingly made of reptilian scales, and claws and sharp teeth, though their faces were so very similar to the males of her own species. In the eyes of Amadalia, who adored biological quandaries, they were terrifyingly beautiful.<br/><br/>Her skin practically itched to know more about them, but first, they needed to be saved. A thought that sprang her into action. Her hands placing the life-vine around the root of a tree so that it ran parallel in two strands, and moving quickly overhead she wove line within reach of their arms so that the might be able to hold on to that. Being that she as quite clever, she had even rigged it up to form a bit of a pulley system to help unmire them when Sameli came around with the sled.<br/><br/>Though she was fast, she was shaking in fear as often many of the hands tried to catch her as she wove through them and overhead. The entire process only took a couple of minutes, and at last she came to the last one that was mired nearly up to his neck, though he had managed to keep his arms free. This one was stoic, and that intrigued her greatly. She slipped down before him, her suit keeping a small cushion of air between her and the ground, though even that would not last forever to prevent sinking, and offered him the end of the life vine, enough to wrap about his upper chest to keep him from sinking any farther into the muck.<br/><br/>"How could you not think to test the ground beneath your feet, it is a wonder your species survives at all. I have hope you are not all imbeciles." She told the man before her, of which he would understand only one word, and only because of his royal lineage and education. "Imbeciles". Her head turned then as the sound of a small floating flat platform appeared. It was then that her face covering slipped back and into a rounded piece about her neck. Soft pink hair drifted out, around it, long and wavy. Her face held finely boned, cheeks, nose, and chin. Soft pink full lips, blue eyes, and a gently creamy/tan complexion. Though the the eye would be drawn to the earpiece she wore around her<span style="font-style: italic">pointed</span>ears.<br/><br/>" Sameli! Here! We have a new species. Look at how I tied off the life-vine. if we use that and some timing, we will be able to pull them all free. It shall be a task. They do not seem to like the wet, so she should work as quickly as possible. I mean, look at their scales, their teeth, and those claws. I would almost assume they were ravenous meat eaters, but... questions for later. Rescue for now." She said to Sameli, and pulled away from the silver-hued scientist to help rig up the system to slowly pull the strangers out.<br/><br/>The process took the better part of 2 hours.
