[/color] Was that today? Really? Vaylee lifted her heavy head off the pillow, saw the sunlight streaming in and laid it back on the pillow. All this extra work just kept piling on. She needed a vacation. What time was it now, it had to be late morning by the looks of things. Mine its past noon.
Good Morning! Came the gleeful sound of her green, Cupith. hmmph. The two don’t belong in the same sentence together. Cupith’s eyes whirled. You promised the Candidate Master you would talk to Candidate Sareen.
“No way.” She shot out of bed like a jack rabbit. “When did I get in from the infirmary?” Vaylee was not sure she wanted to know. She worked as a dragonrider during the afternoon, she had the infirmary at night and the only time left was morning and it was allocated to sleeping and taking care of Cupith. Faranth she needed a vacation! Now if only there was some handsome young man who wanted to come with her and make it all that much more worth it… You don’t have time for daydreams. Sareen will be waiting for us.[/b]
“How do I get talked into these things?” She grumbled as she went to put her leathers on. What she wouldn’t give for time to bathe. Surely she was not presenting herself to the best of her ability. She had been assigned a duty though and the last thing a dragon rider wanted was to not perform. Combing her hair, washing her face and brushing her teeth came in quick succession of one another. Her boots were near Cupith’s riding gear. Apparently she was more organized than she thought!
Once the riding straps were in place she made sure Cupith was ready and half vaulted, half climbed up the small dragon’s back. She is outside the Candidate Barracks as ordered.[/b] We better land don’t you think?The green circled lower and lower until she landed smoothly about 100 feet from the female Candidate. Vaylee slid down the dragon’s petite form with a practiced ease.
“Good day, Candidate Sareen.” She smiled warmly as the sun glanced off of her pale skin. Shards! All this indoor work was making her much too pale. How was she supposed to find a date looking pasty? That thought aside she continued, “My name is Vaylee, I’m rider of Illume Wing which is led by A’lez of Bronze Neinoth. My green is called Cupith. There is no green recorded smaller than she is so she’s pretty easy to spot around the WEyr.” She indicated the light green dragon who was watching them with calm blue eyes. “ I was told you wanted to know more about the Weyr and dragons?”
