Arleen strained to hear the Searchrider's words over the howl of the
wind as the blue dragon began to circle down toward the dusty bowl of
Ista Weyr. Turning amber brown eyes to him, she nodded.
"Yes sir! My brother rides brown Gixurath!" she shouted back. She felt
a little out of line, to be shouting at a dragonrider. However, how in
the world would the man hear her otherwise?
"Really?! Good man, L'lan. Will he be thrilled to see you?"
Arleen paused to think on that. Would L'lan be pleased to see her? It
had been so long since she had seen him last, leading wet and clumsy
Gixurath to feed. He had been so happy that day and with a dragon of
his own, why would he stop to think of his siblings.
'Much less the gangly one.' she thought.
"Maybe, I'm not sure!" she responded.
D'aust nodded, his green eyes meeting hers. She was a pretty girl,
well as far as he was concerned. His tastes really didn't run toward
woman, in fact the last woman he had slept with was the last flight
Fexath had won. D'aust like men.
"Well here we are, Candidate Arleen." the Searchrider said. Fexath
raised his arm and, with D'austs help, Arleen made it to the dusty
bowl floor.
"Thank you, Searchrider D'aust." she said, smiling at him and the to
the large blue dragon at his side. Fexath was so beautiful, the pale
and delicate shade of blue lace agate and he was so big!
"And thanks to you, blue Fexath." she said with a grin. Clutching her
search token in her hand, Arleen waited for D'aust to join her. He had
promised to take her to the Candidate Master.

D'aust nodded to the other girl; Arleen would have someone to show her
around and maybe he could get another pass over the cotholds near Ista
Hold. They needed more boys for Faranth's sake. There was only so many
girls you could place on the grounds, even with a queen egg.
{{She is meant for Impression.}} was Fexath's reply.
Arleen turned her head toward the other girl, the wind picking up and
tossing her black hair.
"Yes, I was justed Searched. I'm Arleen." and she extended a hand to
the other girl.
"If it isn't too much to ask, could you show me around?" she added,
bright amber brown eyes looking at Faelon.

"We'll get your stuff settled, before I show you around. The Candidate
Master's been dispatched by the Weyrwoman this morning," Faelon said a
slight grin on her face. That was one reason she had been left alone long
enough to tan in the afternoon sun.
