Redsand Canyon evaristus

She meant to go look for her mom, or for any of her family really, just to check in. Instead, she found herself drifting to the mountains. Paleo was gone, but there was something there worth having, and her mind just kept returning to it. It was distracting. She had problems sleeping, is all. And as wild as that party had been, the cactus shit was heavy. She didn’t want to see things that weren’t there. Sometimes she just wanted to forget anything was anywhere for a while.

She could have gone around the canyon, but decided to go through it instead for old time’s sake. Still ugly, full of a whole lot of nothing to look at. Tierra snorted to herself. Just like old Germ. She wondered how he was doing, but shoved the thought away. It was whatever.

Him, Towhee, Fennec, Paeon, Sybol… she’d see them again or she wouldn’t. A few of the names she missed more than others but she wasn’t about to cry over it when they were probably off living boring old lives somewhere. She probably should have asked around at the party, but… shit happened.

Tierra wasn’t paying nearly enough attention to her surroundings to notice she wasn’t alone down here.
