The herd wrote:Just as the new morning light began to stream through the windows of the sleeping quarters, we were awoken by the sound of running. Like.. very loud, trembling running. Akin to when a herd of animals moves as one.
We practically ejected ourselves from ou beds in haphazard fashion, catching glimpses of what was happening outside as we got our suits on to go outside. By the time we made it outside, the noise had subsided but the source still remained.
We could not count them all, but I would estimate well over 100 of the creatures. They were divided between wandering the beach and drinking from the water. This was curious to us, naturally, as we had spent days testing water samples and found that its chemical composition would most definitely be unsafe for us to consume. The scent of the water alone reminded us of cosmic sulphurs, and just a tiny dab of it to the tongue made Mal wretch and swiftly throw up.
But more importantly, these were the same creatures that I had spotted on few occasions before.. though at the time it was only a lone specimen running to and fro. Perhaps a scout? A messenger? The limbs of what I presume to be the adults are much longer compared to the juveniles within the group. I suspect this a genetic growth adaptation at this time, for whatever reason.
The colouration on these animals appears to give them little to no disguise above ground, at least in this area.. but perhaps beneath the waves it would work. Can they can swim? Would they be able to swim well with their anatomy?
Even without swimming through, they seem keenly interested on the shoreline.. they refused to leave the area all day, and even slept in communal groups at random intervals.
I want to get closer to them..
