She has a quiet voice and her language sounds graceful to human ears. She speaks to Spensa in a rather enigmatic manner during their brief interaction, although she was severely injured at the time.{{book ref|sky2|8}}

==History==
 
After Spensa helped land the ship, she tried to give Alanik medical attention. Alanik was able to speak to Spensa using a translator pin, and told her about [[Starsight (station)|Starsight]]. She cytonically placed the coordinates of the station in Spensa's mind and told her not to trust the Superiority before falling unconscious. [[M-Bot]] was able to hack into her ship's relatively crude computer systems and was able to fill in the blanks regarding her planet and her mission.{{book ref|sky2|8}} Spensa quickly hatched a plan to disguise herself as Alanik and go to Starsight in her place in an attempt to steal a hyperdrive.{{book ref|sky2|8}} The DDF did not fully understand Alanik's medical needs and they simply monitored her as she remained unconscious for the duration of Spensa's mission.{{book ref|sky2|i|1}} The UrDail tried to contact her; Spensa attempted to explain the situation{{book ref|sky2|13}} but the UrDail were also in contact with Cuna and did not seem to know who to trust.{{book ref|sky2|33}}
