Smoke Signals

Okay, so blue fireflies were one thing. But giant blue women with tusks? That was definitely not what he was expecting.

Doom swallowed deep and couldn't help but stiffening slightly as she approached, watching her carefully although she seemed to pose no thread as she answered calmly and approached so calmly. Friendly wolves certainly weren't something he wasn't familiar with, but this was a lot at once and he didn't know where to begin.

He figured it best to avoid things like her size and her tusks, but found it increasingly difficult to do so and instead tried with great effort to focus on what she had said. "I've never seen anything like... this before in my life." He swallowed hard again, looking off in the direction that she had been. The strange blue fireflies, the glowing plants, ... her. At least she had confirmed one thing, though. These weren't common, and apparently they were pretty new if the girl didn't understand much about them. "What are they?" He asked, knowing well they looked like fireflies... but they couldn't be, could they?
