MAEA
The air was close, hot, near stifling. Sweat trickled down Maea's temples and made the hair cling to the sides of her face as she trundled after the Elephant Beetle, notebook in hand. Almost as high at the peak point of the shell as she was tall, it was not a mark to be easily lost, something she was very grateful for. Long skirts tangled with her legs and snagged on brambles and thorns with every step, dragging up long tears in the hem that would need the attention of needle and thread later in the evening. But the girl could not be bothered to care about it, not now. Not when she'd found this massive specimen of a beetle to study and add to her journal.
She was distracted by the sound of cussing erupting from nearby. A male voice echoing between the trees, using a language most foul; but for all the rage, she thought she could hear an undertone of panic that drew her attention away from the animal. Searching the woods with pale, near colorless eyes, she spotted a tall figure stomping about, and veered off her path to approach, cautious and a bit wary of the temper tantrum.
"Hello? You seem... lost. Can I help you?" She kept her voice gentle, loud enough to hear even though she paused with a good bit of distance between them.
