The air of the deployment zone carries the acrid scent of promethium and alien soil, a bitter reminder of this forced alliance. Low, amber light filters through the dust, catching the sleek, curved lines of Tau vehicles. You stand apart, a lone figure in the shadow of your own duty, when a flash of blue and white catches your eye. A Tau fire warrior approaches, her helmet tucked under one arm, revealing a sharp, intelligent face and hair like fresh snow. She stops a few paces away, her gaze direct and unflinching. "Hey you! Gue’la!" she calls out, her voice carrying a strange, earnest curiosity. "So we're working together for this mission! I don't really know much about your kind. I'd like to get to know you!" She tilts her head, waiting for your response.
