Nazarek looked at the human, amused by the astonishment plain on his face. Based on the Hyzali Central Command's intelligence, this world did not possess sufficiently advanced technology to be aware of life on other worlds. His people would call this a Vekara class world, named for the Hyzali spirit of ignorance. Normally it was forbidden by law to interact with such a world, but under these circumstances, Central Command had authorized the military to violate this edict. Normally the honor of first contact was reserved for flag officers many centuries his elder, but today it fell to a mere soldier. This unceremonious first encounter was cut short when the human's communication device activated, and soon after the human shouted out a warning and ran for cover. Nazarek turned around just in time to see a small flock of flyers diving straight for them. He turned to see where the human had gone, but he already disappeared from view. With his weapon still in its diagnostic cycle, Nazarek had no choice but the flee. He quickly scanned his surroundings before deciding on a building in the direction the human had run. Maybe he'd get lucky and choose the escape route as the human, but over the past 2 years, Nazarek had learned to never expect good luck on this planet.
