It was another hot dry day on the planet Ma-Joon. The air was thick with all manner of dust and sand as the mid day sun beat down over a small space port. Most people had gone inside at this point to escape the unpleasantness outside. but one girl remained, at a distance she would look very human but upon closer inspection her red tentacle hair would certainly tell you otherwise. The moist skin of her arms and legs glistened in the bright sunlight as the lone squiliden girl unloaded some rather heavy looking boxes off of a hover bike."Ugh, I'm not cut out for this kind of work but I need the money.", she said as she wiped her forehead. "It'll all be worth it once I can unlock those ruins", she thought as she unloaded more of the heavy cargo. "U-uh, anyone here? I've got that shipment of ore samples you wanted!", she said aloud nervously, hoping she didn't come to the wrong address. just then a large figure appeared from one of the many small houses that dotted the town. "Ah thanks toots", a voice said from behind her. she turned around with a start almost dropping a box. When the squiliden girl turned around she saw the source of the voice, a large blue skinned alien with two long arms, a long snout, and two big red round eyes stood before her. "you must be Miss Mika Maxwell right? yeah those are for me. didn't think they send a looker like you to boot though", the alien said with a hearty laugh. Mika looked away shyly in response saying, "I-I uh well thank you?". she always knew the Ma-Jeem (the native people of Ma-Joon) were kind of a pain to work with. They always had a habit of pointing out her looks. no doubt this one would rather give her something other them money. However, this one was in a hurry so thankfully she was spared anymore teasing giving her the credits she was owed. she was soon getting ready to leave when an old junker of a passenger ship appeared on the horizon. "A passenger ship? Who would come to this fringe world, well besides me anyway....", she said as she looked on with curiosity.
