Read More Snippets Here!
This is another snippet from the MUD scene, in Neon Orchid, my upcoming release.
“‘New Prague
Mud Salp…native, not a result of Terra forming.
Gelatinous but with strong muscular fiber. Adults root in pools of mud
and are territorial; once rooted a salp will fight any intruder to the death.
Adults reproduce asexually, flinging buds into the forest and neighboring mud
pools. Plumed salps have a fan-shaped, sticky tongue to prevent prey from
escaping from their mouths, those are generally smaller and eat insects and
small amphibians.’”
Brielle
looked at the writhing beast. “I didn’t see a tongue.”
“No, I suspect it would fight us to the death,” Karvar said.
