Ylana ran the body brush over her hairless scalp, fashioning elaborate swirls of decoration from purple, yellow, orange, green, red and pink paints.  The business of the day would take them to the planet Nevaris, and she wanted to look her best when she set foot on an alien world for the first time.

“We’re going to be landing in a few minutes,” Nara announced from the open doorway of Ylana’s modest quarters.  “I’m sure this has to be exciting for you.”

With a nod and a conspiratorial grin, Ylana replied, “Nevaris is home to the greatest enemy of the Kryllians, so I have the feeling I’m going to be learning a lot more there than how to get the best trade for your medicinal skin cream.”
