"Okay, new game," Scarlett announced from the driver's bench. "I say a monster, and you tell me if you could beat it barehanded."
"Yes," Kanna said.
"I haven't said one yet."
"You will, and then I'll say yes, and then you'll say a bigger one, and we'll be here until the sun goes down. I'm skipping to the end for you."
Aegis smirked.
[Kanna's getting a little cheeky, isn't she?]
The wagon rumbled, and Aegis let her head loll against Talia's shoulder. Outside the canvas flap, the world had gone red. Red rock, red dust, red cliffs stacked on the horizon like somebody had dropped a plate of raw steaks the size of mountains. The air coming through the flap was dry enough to crack her lips, and she'd already gone through half her water skin out of spite.
[Get it? It's Red Canyon. And the whole place is red! Very subtle, devs.]
