Raylin leaned back against Ebolath and sighed. It was chilly, but she couldn’t sleep. Her mind absolutely refused to let her. It was about 5 candle marks past sunset and the only weyr inhabitants likely to be awake where the whers and their handlers. Upon waking the weyrling had practically begged her dragon to take her to the beach so she could look at the stars for awhile. Ebolath had, at first, resisted. Even threatened to actually call someone to have her bonded sedated but finally the green relented to her bondeds pleas.
It was cold but Raylin had brought a blanket. Besides on such a cold night the stars where magnificent. Thanks to the moonlight, Ebolath had no trouble at all navigating to the beach. Now that they where actually there the green was quite enamored with the bright lights in the sky. Raymine why are they so bright? She asked stretching her neck out to get a better view. The weyrling snuggled back against her green. “cause it’s cold. There isn’t as much rising heat to block the brightness or something like that. I used to watch them all the time as a kid when I could sneak out. They’re lovely aren’t they?”
Ebolath crooned low in her throat. Yes they are quite lovely. Pausing the dragon lowered her head to nudge her bonded’s shoulder. You are worrying again. Relax Minelove. Isn’t that why you came out here? To relax and watch the stars? Raylin smiled slightly. “Yeah It was but I can’t help it you know. Maybe we should take a short walk down the beach? It’s easier to stop thinking when your doing something.” Ebolath rumbled and shifted slightly. Lowering her head she nuzzled hers gently. Perhaps.
