Llamatigre hops through the gate and as you follow you hear a bang and feel warm air blow past you. Next thing you see is the flame tigress sitting next to a cactus. "Welcome to the desert." She flicks her smokey wings, "Feel free to move about, the inhabitants are quite friendly." She paused and then remembered something, "Oh, you'll find a canteen of water next to this cactus. If you need me just say my name and I'll come." She smiles at you as you pick up your canteen and start down the sandy pathway.

Once past the cactus you notice something white. The closer you got the more you thought that it was a ferret, but then you notice it has wings. The Ferilon turns his head to you. Hello. Lowers his great head to look at you, My name is Ocatillo, I am a Ferilon. You can find one like me here. I help Llamatigre with the desert companions. Would you care for a tour? You nod your head, you didn't want to get lost in this place, especially when it reached noon time.

Alright then, follow me, Ocatillo leads you further into the desert. Soon a little Lupe runs up to you.
Smiling to yourself because you know what the little creature is, you kneel down so you can talk to him. Hello! the desert lupe pants, I'm Anubis! My sister resides in the tundra. He then barks happily and scoots off. Ocatillo smiles, Hyper little one. He then moves onward.

Further up the way he stops. Look over there. He points with one foot. As you follow his gesture you notice an odd cat shaped building. Someone is standing outside of it. That is Pumyra. If you watched Thunder Cats, you'd understand. She was adopted here. The Ferilon grins at you and then continues to walk, his wings acting as an umbrella for himself.

The two of you come across a small desert oasis. A large gathering of animals can be seen. They all stop their chattering when they see Ocatillo and you. Ocatillo nods to each of them and they all call out greeting to both of you. The two flaming dogs step forward. The larger of the two speaks, I am T'pol. I was adopted, as was we all are, from Neopets role playing adoptions. T'pol's body is covered in flames and when she shakes the sand from her fur, flames go flying as if she were shedding. Luckily for you, all are harmless. From her shoulders sprout two very large black wings that are tipped with rubies. Lahrea named me after a Vulcan. She says seeing the questioning look in your eyes. The black furred pup with literally flaming paws smiles shyly at you. His yellow eyes study you and he twitches his little black wings. T'pol continues, This is Scorch the pup shies slightly but allows a quick pat on the head from you. The two dogs move back to allow the others to introduce themselves.
Your eyes scan the group and fall on an interesting feline. She is a golden color with white tabby stripes. Upon her head is a golden crown with a silver scarab. Hello there. I am Kamilah and my element is weather.
A large jet black wolf with orange eyes and orange markings on his muzzle and paws steps forward. He spreds his large black wings in a sweeping bow, I am Solarflare, and I welcome you to our home.
A black cat with an orange spot on his tail merely nods his head in greeting. Ocatillo whispers to you, That is Nimbus. He can speak, but sometimes its best that you don't hear what he has to say. The cat's eyes twinkle slightly but he continues his silence.
You feel something climb up your leg and the next thing you know there's a little yellow muzzle peaking at you on your shoulder. Moving your head back a little, you see it belongs to a bright yellow ferret with soft brown eyes. His yellow feathered wings, with an orange tint to them, are folded neatly along his back. That is Solar Ocatillo speaks for the mute ferret. It chirps to you and rubs against your neck, then scurries down to join the others.
While introductions had finished, another creature, a Siamese cat, trots up.
She purrs and bobs its chocolate pointed head. That is Isis Ocatillo says, She was adopted here. Ocatillo then leads you onward. After a bit he turns to you. That is all. I hope you enjoyed your stay. Perhaps I'll see you later. He then lifts off, sending a little cloud of dust into the air.

Soon you see the firey tigress approach. Are you ready to go? You climb onto her back and she jumps through the gate.
