Cressa suspects this has very little to do with her banging and shouting.
Great, creaking mechanisms—older than the General can really comprehend—come unlocked, and the two massive slabs of machinery uncouple from each other and slide swiftly apart, retreating neatly into recesses carved into the cliffside where the gate was built. They move more cleanly and easily than mechanisms of their age should be able to, but Cressa doesn’t complain, only waits for Umbra to rise to his feet, still carrying the Tenno. She lets the warframe lead the way, following once she’s sure the coast behind them is clear. The gates close again once they pass safely through.
The latest update is great!!! The way you've fleshed out Cressa Tal and the Ostron people is spectacular. Also, nothing is better than lesbians in space. Can't wait to see what happens next! (but please take all the time you need) :-]
I’m really glad you liked it! Thanks for the encouragement <3

Two long tracks trail behind him, soft lines scored across featureless grey sand, curving away as far as he can see. A flat plain extends beyond these tracks, the sky overhead is a flat, muted non-colour, distinguishable from the gray of the landscape only in the way it shifts and subtly changes.
i love this a lot, actually. It was one of those incidental shots that was sort of just the result of me screwing around in captura and it’s really just legit well composed and great. I don’t really remember taking it, but gosh. Damn!
