Subject: :: arrival ::

Bronze Lirth winked out of between carrying an extra passenger besides his rider Sh'muel. Lirth hovered for a moment, in quiring of his rider, {{Should we land?}} ~~Of course. Aeva has to get down to the Sands to Impress, doesn't she?~~ {{But is she sure she wants to Impress?}} Even Aeva heard that remark, perched atop the bronze's sturdy neck. She tossed Lirth a glare before telling him, 'I've wanted to Impress for longer than I've known how to speak, you great lump. So land...' She paused, then grinned sheepishly. '...Please.' Lirth seemed almost to smile as he glided to a gentle landing. {{That's better. 'Please' is much nicer than nothing. Now go and Impress for me, please.}}

Aeva chuckled nervously as she slid from Lirth's back. 'Thanks for the ride, Sh'muel!' she called up to the bronzerider. 'No problem, Aeva! Besides, I wanted to watch another Hatching anyhow.' Sh'muel hopped from his seat on his bronze's neck and landed rather shakily beside Aeva. 'Go on,' he told her. 'Dragons don't bite.' Aeva snorted, then surveyed the scene before them. 'Is the queen already Impressed?' Sh'muel nodded. 'Looks like it.'

Aeva took a step forward, clearly unsure for the first time in her life. This unsurety unsettled her, and for a moment she was unable to continue. But then she saw one of the three eggs remaining, one that had great rifts mottling its exterior, and her resolve strengthened. She had come here to Impress, she had fought her way here through the disapproval of her father and mother, and she was going to Impress. She strode forward again, until she stood by the egg she had seen about to hatch. Was it hers? Were any of the trio meant for her? She flipped a lock of her fiery red hair, as flaming as her personality, behind her ear in her agitation. She waited, tall frame trembling with anticipation and uncertainty... Would she Impress?

And what color? She was slightly disappointed that the gold had already been Impressed, but she supposed she was not really cut out for the prestige such an Impression implied. She blinked slightly as she cast a glance over at Sh'muel and thought, as long as I Impress a green... But what was she thinking? Ridiculous. Besides, she would be happy to Impress at all. She knew she would. It was just... Aeva sighed resignedly and bit her lip as the egg besider her began rocking...
