[little one] just remember why we're here. It's not that I'm wanting to clone your tiny bunbuns or to hunt down space pets... mermaids are going extinct and we need to find nature spirits. Earth doesn't have those anymore so we had to resort to finding other planets.

[Julee] I get it... my scans aren't pulling up much. But this is supposed to be a lab... to think that they got so advanced, what happened to them... so continuing, the lab was used for genetics. The full roster of research from the top is Botany, Genetics, Biological Enginerring, Dna/Rna chemistry... I'm lead to assume they just made monsters. There a flagged article about some specific project to... re-populate the flora of the planet. I'm looking into it, turns out the planet was dying from the environment choking without plant life.

so other then you three, er, four how else is there (and since the mermaid is stuck in the ball I'm not really going to count her.

So if they destroyed the environment here how does "Harold" survive?

Also being a native he might be able to show you around if you can figure out a way to communicate. If there are any nature spirits left here the natives would probably know about them.

I guess it's time to tell a little something about ourselves...

Well, this is our home. An old salvage piece we picked up on our travels. Alexis was so infatuated with it that she forced me to make it our means of transport... and we have been living in it since then- it's been... how long... six years now? It has a lot of sentimental value now...

Who's Alexis? She's the redhead over there cooking on the grill. Heh, she doesn't talk much but when she does you can feel her boisterous personality. Julee, the yellow rabbit, is always trying to get her to open up more. They do make the silliest pair in my mind, but we are all here for... reasons.

Where to start with the history... So Alexis is an earthling who... well... just has the worst luck. We joke on occasion about her raccoon mask, but we don't say it out loud. Left her home to get away from the abuse, and wants to see the exotic interesting things in space. Very common with the humans from what I hear.

Julee is extravagant. This is the nice way of saying it... though I shouldn't be to mean to the girl. She comes from a world where all it does is rain. Though at first I thought she would make a great communications and science 'rabbit' based on her background and experience on her home planet... but sometimes I question her seriousness about our mission. Too flighty and absent minded sometimes- BUT THAT'S ENOUGH ABOUT THAT!

Then there's susan... We ran into her by accident. A human... but not really? It's hard to explain her special brand of insecurity. 'Gifted' with some special augments to help her in hostile environments and a headpiece that can translate 52+ alien languages I definitely knew she would be necessary for this mission. It's just... that... well... she wants to be some sort of animal, er, I guess little monster so the other girls have a hard time relating to her. But we do get along.

And then there's myself. I'm a noble from an aristocratic mermaid nation. My parents had blessed me the name of kuw-enxita-ga, which means little one... and yes I am the littlest mermaid of my age. A while ago there was a curse set onto the waters by an evil spiteful old man, just the worst. The curse would make it so that if a mermaid ever walked upon dry land we would die, but sadly on most mermaid homeworlds we are forced to escape the sea due to the land dwellers pollution and advancements... By the time I was born our race was in the endangered zone, and today my race is on the brink of extinction. I have set out on a mission to save the mermaids a long time ago, and after learning of a way to remove the curse I strive to collect the resources necessary so that I.... so that I'm not the last mermaid...

so what do you need and how are you going to find it? Also what can you tell us about this planet? Just the cliff notes would be fine.

>The curse would make it so that if a mermaid ever walked upon dry land we would die
They could move and breath above water before the curse?

And can a nature spirit just lift the curse from people, or is there some more convoluted (and/or murderous) process involved?

Hey little one, where did Julee leave that red thing you found a while back?

Inka, maybe check where he was going and go form there, it's about the best lead you got right now.

Rape and/or sexual abuse is not an appropriate form of first contact!

...and even if you consider him a specimen and not a sapient, there are usually more basic things to cover in an initial examination.

@Muthra-how exactly is that thing you're looking at a bad sign, and a sign of what?
