“The sun burns, clawing its way higher and higher in the sky, scorching Lylitte's neck and shoulders. It's more than just the heat that overwhelms. Her belly feels as if it has doubled in size, and all her parts are swollen; her back is exhausted, and her joints ache.

Earth is horrendous and uncomfortable and ugly, she reflects. How will we possibly survive?”
