He could see the ruins off in the distance and closer by the withered weather worn skull of a Rex. Doskei couldn't make out what breed of Rex exactly. He just knew his uncle hated them. They could tear up livestock pretty quick and were always a nuisance at best. Stopping near the skull Doskei checked his spear again. It was a bit improvised but it worked rathr well. The tip could be replaced and was insulated from the rest of it and wrapped in part with wire. Doskei could press a button and the Speer tip would electrify. A quick jab or tap with it was usually enough to ward off any predator. Most Rexes wouldn't bother them anyway. Jebra tended to be too small and quick to really make a meal but today Doskei wasn't alone. He'd come out here with a human tourist. The human stood a good too feet taller than him and made him feel like a kit again.\n\n\"Damn Sedero. Do you ever slow up?\" The human panted wiping his brow walking over with a rifle slung over his shoulder.\n\n\"I told you call me Doskei. Jebra place the family name first and then given name. So I'm only referred to as Sedero in a formal situation. 'Mr. Sedero your little raptor's chewed my rug again!' that sort of thing.\" Doskei explained and gave a huff at the rifle. \"Oh and be careful with that. Sure it's nice to have out here just in case but inside the ruins not so much. You could accidentally bring it down on our heads.\"\n\n\"Will do. Sorry it just feels weird being on a world like this. It's like stepping back in time.\" The human said looking back at their vehicle which now rested in the sand though the dull hum indicated it's hover systems were still engaged just enough to prevent it sinking into the sand. It looked hardy and well loved with custom paint and decals of all sorts all over it. \"So any idea what we'll find in there?\"\n\n\"Well it's pretty old and we're way out by the mountains. Who knows. I've looked around enough to know it's from the 6th millennia but beyond that not much. Wanted us to discover whatever's in here together. Odds are it'll be long picked over by others but who knows.\" Doskei said with a grin as they finally proceeded forward again. It felt as though the ruins were pulling at him. Something deep within yearned to see it. To know it. Sometimes he thought he could almost hear it. These ruins calling him. The Desert Calling him. So he heeded that call as he always did. Adventure and a thirst for knowledge was in his blood. It was how he made a living and how he felt most alive. Going out and following the Desert's Call.\n\nWell hope you guys liked the pic and the lil story. ^^\n\nOh and as promised here's the lil extra. A Map of the Jelana!
