Lander listened to Drisk's somewhat grudging explanation after he had changed back. Agile form, huh? He had known a few other people like himself on his own world who could take the shapes of various animals, but no one who could change like Drisk had just done.

"Look," he said calmly, "I don't mean any offense or anything. I just wanted to tell you that, you know, I kind of understand...a little..." He made a vague gesture in the air with one hand as if that was supposed to explain what he was talking about, although it would have been clear that he was talking about Drisk's shapeshifting ability. "Not everyone is going to reject you for it. But I won't tell them."

His expression was nonchalant, as if Drisk could take or leave what he was saying. A few moments later he saw Falco coming to join them, seeming rather irritated. He shrugged, somewhat amused at Falco's discussion of the meaning of 'unity'. He wasn't really used to working in a team, and didn't tend to think of himself as part of a group.

"Sorry," he said, rather gruffly, walking off back towards the campsite
