The small orange blobling wasn't sure if it was normal to awake to slow waves of heat rolling over their body and soft sand shifting underneath them. But they weren't quite sure of anything at the moment. It was all quite confusing to think about and they let out a little sigh, deciding to give up on thinking for now.
Unfortunately, thinking was the only thing that was on their mind at the moment. Through all their turbulent thoughts of knowing and not knowing, they remembered their name. Harki.
A rather nice sounding name, they thought. Soft but sharp. Harki thought their name suited them quite well.
Having some semblance of an identity now, Harki lifted their gaze to the sky and gasped at the sight that greeted them.
The sky was beautiful. It filled Harki with a longing, a longing to know more. To know why. A fierce desire to know more, to know and see and feel everything they could find.
Why would they ever resist this desire? So many great things could become of it. They could become a keeper of knowledge, to spread their findings with some other life that they unknowingly knew existed with them. But what would be the fun in that? It would be so much more fun to use their knowledge to lead others astray, to laugh as they fumbled around for some truth to grasp on to. Oh, this was going to be so much fun!
Harki giggled quietly to themselves, starting a slow pace to the nearest, most interesting thing they could see, which happened to be some sort of settlement.
