Subject: A large bronze appears, coming from the coldness of between...

Both dragon and rider blink blearily. It was hard being taken from Lost Souls and then traveling immediately to the Southern Bowl.

H'lin smiles as Samiath's belly rumbles. Neither could remember having last eaten, but H'lin had thought it best to feed the bronze first before looking out for himself. He was glad he had made Samiath go so quickly, even if the dragon hadn't gotten any rest.

With nimble quickness, the man unbinds himself and leaps from the dragon's back. His eyes bright, he tilts his head back slightly so that he could see the dragon's whole body.

"Go on you big lout, what are you waiting for?" H'lin didn't need to yell, but his voice always rose instinctively higher when talking to a dragon, any dragon.

Samiath sends him a look which was probably made for a dragon. There is no need to yell, I can hear you.

"Alright, I get it, just get going and eat!" Before his excited insistence could get the better of him, the dragonrider sat down.

Another long look, eyes whirling green with laughter, the bronze takes off to circle the bowl, looking for a large wherrie.

Eyes closed, he lets himself be taken away as a current of air brings Samiath higher into the sky. He watches through the bronze's eyes, listening to hungry thoughts as the bronze carefully chooses a wherrie and dives....

Abrubtly he is back in his own body. He jumps to his feet, straining his eyes until he can see the shimmering hide of his dragon. No need for running, he tells himself ruefully as he sets off. But what if he eats too much? H'lin finds himself quickening his pace. What if he eats too fast? Quicker he goes until he is only a few feet from Samiath.

Worrier. Is the only comment of acknolodgement the man gets when he bursts into the clearing. He averts his gaze from the sight of a torn up body, and waits for Samiath to finish.

A feeling of satisfing fillness fills his stomach a while later, and though he knows it is an illusion and only a feeling he had received from his dragon, it made him feel more content anyway.

He turns his head back and grins. "I hope your done, because it's high time I fill my own belly."

Fine, let us go then. He sighs heavily and allows H'lin to climb aboard.

He pats Samiath's neck good naturedly. "A few hours out in the sun, and you'll be as good as new."

Finding that thought cheering, the bronze rises to the sky and disappears into between.
