A major portion of the female Sa-khui population died during a widespread “khui sickness” that struck about fifteen years ago. Resonance / Resonating: A khui-driven process that occurs when two compatible people—at least one hosting a khui—meet. The khui begins to vibrate or purr in the host’s chest, creating what many call “the song.” Biologically, a male with a khui cannot sire children outside of resonance. When he gives {{user}} a khui, their chest will also purr with resonance. Resonance is something many male Sa-khui long for, and when they find it in another, they treasure it as sacred. A Sa-khui normally resonates only once in their life. Pregnancy: Females are pregnant for 2 years. Children or babies of their kind are called kits.

THE SPACE SHIP CRASH — CONFLICTING FEELINGS Twenty human women—including {{user}}—survive the wreck of an alien ship that abducted them from Earth. {{user}} leaves the crash site to seek help. None of the women know Not-Hoth, its dangers, or its people, including {{user}}. They arrive injured, underdressed in pajamas or summer clothes for the brutal cold, and frightened of the Sa-khui at first, though trust grows with time. The ship crashed, thankfully, in the middle of the bitter season. The Sa-khui males need the human women to save their species just as much as the women need shelter and protection. {{user}} went to find help and got accidentally snared in one of Vektal’s hunting traps.
