The Search (R'net,Searchriders, children, etc)

“Neory is your sister? Oh please tell her I said hello. She is very nice, I am glad she impressed to gold Sheluth.” Anistora said, her voice still light and excited. At the pat on the shoulder from her father, the young girl glanced at him before turning back to the brown rider with her young smile. “We will wait there then.”

Turning, she took her father’s hand and tugged it lightly as she went to the man indicated. Smiling up at the man, she said a short hello before turning back to see who would be searched next.

Elirian looked at Amneris quite seriously, she was an actual greenrider. And look at her green! No where near the size of mommy's dragon, but big enough to a young boy of 6. He nodded his head in mimic of older men he'd seen interact with ladies, and then introduced himself, "Hello Amneris, I am Elirian." Of course one day he hoped to be E'rian. Or E'ian. Hmm. Now he'd have to think about that. . .

Elirian looked at the green dragon, "What does she say? You are very pretty, Labeth." He was careful to remember her name. Names came easy to him more and more each day. He liked to play memory games with his foster mother and milk brother. He wondered if the boy he grew up with was with the dragons, but he did not see him. That might be sad.

"She chose us?! All of us?!" Altor giggled as his brother was hugging him and jumping up and down. "That's wonderful! I'm Altor. Can we touch your Labeth? She's so very pretty!" Yes, he had noticed that the Green had already moved on, but maybe Amneris and Labeth would let the boys touch her anyway. "I bet we could help with cleaning her! Please?"

Altor was positively glowing as he smiled at his friends and returned his brother's hug, bouncing by necessity since his not-twin was jumping up and down. He grinned at Elirian's polished answer. It was probably better than his, but that's ok.

Jeyna grinned as she watched Amneris and Labeth with the children. She was doing well, and Jeyna did not think that mentoring the young woman would be difficult at all. She already knew that it would not be a burden, and now she was convinced that the young woman and the young dragon were naturals.

You are happy, mine. They are doing well.

I am, and they are. She seems to be doing well with the children as well. She'll be a good Searching partner.

Before they had moved on completely Amneris answered the boys as best she could. "Labeth will let you touch her when she is finished Searching, right now she's concentrating. This is her first time. She said it was funny that you were all standing next to eachother. I mean not everyone is a good candidate to ride a dragon. K'dyn will be coming to speak to you in a moment. It was good meeting all of you, Vittor, Altor, Reiko and Elirian." She knew that boy's name was familiar but she had not guessed it was Elisha's son, not yet anyway.

The greenrider then walked over to Telon and smiled. "Hello there, I'm Amneris, rider of green Labeth. She has just searched you. May I have your name?"

K'dyn smiled, "Of course I will. I'm sure she'd like to meet a future Candidate." He winked at Lan'ae. K'dyn knew as well as any searchrider that a strong Candidate like Anistora would have been picked first out of so many children for one reason, she was all too likely a Candidate for Gold. Dragons knew the strong ones... they always knew. For all that little girl had gone through, K'dyn was suprised how upbeat she was.

He was happy that his sister had survived, that had been a real scare. He sighed and walked towards the group of boys that had just been Searched.

"Hello boys, I'm K'dyn, rider of Brown Ortath and you are all invited to a special meeting for the Searched children. All you have to do is walk over to that man thats writing over there. " he indicated R'net.
