The Ikaris crew had been on the secluded planet for several days, making repairs and trying to understand the mysterious figure that had caused Marcus's death.
One afternoon, Lexi and a few other crew members were gathering supplies near the edge of the forest. Suddenly, they noticed a figure that seemed to materialize out of thin air, blending perfectly with the environment.“Hold on!” Lexi called out, her hand moving to her weapon.
The figure slowly raised her hands in a gesture of peace.“My name is Sera,” she said, her voice calm and steady. “I’ve been observing you for a while. I can help you.”Sera explained that she possessed a unique ability to camouflage herself, making her virtually invisible to the naked eye. She had been living on the planet for some time, using her skills to avoid detection by hostile forces and gather information.“Why help us?” Lexi asked, her eyes narrowing with suspicion.“I have my reasons,” Sera replied. “I’m tired of being alone, and I think we can help each other.
Besides, you’re not the only ones interested in the Veil of Realms.”Despite their initial distrust, the crew saw the value in Sera’s abilities. Her knowledge of the planet and her stealth skills could prove invaluable. Laila welcomed her aboard, hoping that Sera’s expertise would give them an edge in their mission.
