Their bones are fairly brittle.” Aebura considered and concluded, “They don’t have music. From planet Luvendan.Ambition was frowned upon on Luvendan. The ambitious few left, giving aliens a rather skewed perception of the Luvendi as a whole. The Luvendi out and about in the universe did not answer to their government and had no desire to go back or enrich their planet. Knew they had two hearts, and they had two pupils in their eyes. People shied away from Luvendi because those eyes were so hard to look at. They looked wrong. Gar’s were even weirder than most, in that the color around the pupils was brighter than normal for a Luvendi. It was a bright blue-green that was remarkable to any alien species looking at it. "

Ambition was frowned upon on Luvendan. The ambitious few left, giving aliens a rather skewed perception of the Luvendi as a whole. The Luvendi out and about in the universe did not answer to their government and had no desire to go back or enrich their planet. Gar had sat on the planet Luvendan, watching the endless waves and listening to the hiss of the great beasts that circled their submerged homes. He had feared the Essekan all his life, and had fled Luvendan as soon as he had reached his majority. Essekan could crush the towers if they wanted—or even just any level, and everyone would be dead.

The Luvendi do not make any kind of music, although they may develop a taste for it when off-planet. “Do you tell stories?” Barnabas asked. “Fictional stories? Legends, perhaps?” “Yes.” Though Gar had hated those. They were repetitive, with the poorly-disguised moral that one should stay at home on Luvendan.

The Children of the Waves were a religious sect that Lan had always hated. Even before they bombed the walls of one of the submerged towers on Luvendan, sucking everyone within out into the waters to be devoured by nearby Essekan—the sect maddeningly believed this to be a sure ticket to heaven—Lan had hated them. “Maybe they did that because they were so afraid of the Essekan that they couldn’t live with being afraid anymore. They wanted to get it over with. It’s difficult, waiting for death.” They were so self-assured, so sickeningly sweet. When you didn’t take them seriously, they treated you as though you were too stupid to see the truth. Lan had never trusted any religious figures on any planet since.
