The slender greenrider half-smiles to herself as she hears the ocean on her search for the Weyrwoman, detouring a little. It was always fun to watch people Impress flits, especially the younger children; her little sister Kayet had had a fair of four of all colors but gold. Resa's expression falls into one of darkness at the memory of her sister and her green, Myath; they hadn't survived Pern's harsh weather and erratic Threadfall once the Weyrs collectively fled. The innocent girl with her constant smile, the spoiled but sweet green... gone. Fine features draw together in a downcast scowl, slim fingers curling into a fist at her hips... but a flash of green nearby startles her out of her thoughts. Peering over the dune, she spots seven eggs, and the traces of a genuine smile crosses the rider's fair face. "Maybe..." With a slight shrug, she fills one of her bigger trouser pockets with hot sand, and scoops up a small and a medium egg, settling them securely with plenty of padding. A silent Thank You goes to the green mother, and Resa continues on her way. She leaves one large, one medium, and three small eggs in her wake.
