Someone else seemed to be enjoying themselves to the desert and the Sahara's mountainous sand dunes. The clinking of delicate metals, jewels, and other such trinkets could most likely be heard.
And it was coming closer.
Vaulting off the top of a nearby hill, Na'ima sailed through the air in what felt like slow motion to herself. Eyes closed, face turned up toward the warm sky, scarves and veils billowing in the wind behind her..
And then she landed, surfing easily through the sand until suddenly--
A BODY.
With a shout of shock she toppled over, tripping on whatever poor soul she had just slid right into, and landed in a heap with her face in the sand. She huffed and coughed, making a few undignified noises as she spit up sand and brushed it off her face. Eventually she turned to see just who or
what she had hit.
