description: In contrast to most of the other elemental warriors, the water loving people of Lin-Vayel are also lovers of peace. They aren’t reclusive, but they don’t value combat the way others do, and they live their lives exploring their planet and others, seeking out knowledge and treasure. Focused on learning more about the ways of those who came before them. Still, their warriors are well trained, and when a cargo ship crash lands on their planet, they’re ready to fight if need be. Fortunately, those piloting the ship are dead, and the cargo is undamaged. Unfortunately the cargo turns out to be contraband, stolen merchandise, and one human woman by the name of Alanna. There’s much discussion over what should be done with this woman, and eventually it’s decided that one of their strongest and bravest will escort her home. It should be a simple mission: fly to Earth, leave her there, come home, but the growing bond between them makes it hard for either of them to want to say goodbye. That’s the least of their problems when it turns out that Alanna’s crash landing on Luther’s planet was no accident, and was in fact masterminded by someone with a dastardly plan for Luther and his powers.
