A New Home (Emiliah/Open)

[Rowana]

Posk bounced ahead of his handler, delighted with all the new places to explore. This new place was wonderful! All the places to explore and new friends to meet. No new whers of course, but dragons weren't all bad either. Porita smiled as they made their way down the hall of their new home. She still got lost easily, but Posk could usually find the way for her. The people here were fairly nice so far, though she was glad for the excuse to stick with those she knew. So many new faces around made her nervous.

Posk returned to spin a circle around her. Time to play! She could work later on the silly clothe things later. Life was no fun if all she did was work by herself. She needed more friends too, so she wouldn't be so lonely. Porita smiled and patted him. She didn't mind being alone and she liked sewing. Still, if friends would keep Posk happy, maybe they could find one of the other whers to play with.

The new surroundings made Emiliah nervous. She never knew where she was and thus kept very close to Emilisk, who always knew where she was. Shrew ha been just delighted that she could explore and, more often than not, flew or investigated everything she could get into. The trauma of the earthquake had left a mark on her though, and the green kept a stream of constant contact with Hers.

In a way, the new walls offered a sense of security. Despite the merge, much of the weyr was still unused. The entire thing seemed massive enough to house so much more. Emiliah found it hard to imagine the weyr full to bursting as it must have been at one time. Either way, the young woman followed the wher that walked beside her. A constant comfort and companion. The only friend she ever felt she would need. Her hallucinations had long left her, Mouse and Dib. With the new weyr came a new start and the realization of how much she had grown.

Emilisk stopped and investigated the area without moving. "What is it?" Emiliah asked, hushed. In as smooth a gait as a wher could have, Emilisk slunk forward into the moderate gloom. When she saw Posk she halted and observed. She knew him! He was a clutchbrother! The thylacine green moved with a confidence found rare in her as she greeted her brother. He was in high spirits! She inquired to what had him that way, for Hers was anxious and preferred to lurk behind her.

Posked was thrilled! Here was not only another wher, but one of his lovely siblings! He was confused by her question though. Of course he was in high spirits! Fate had led them to this new and wonderful place. They were safe, the earth no longer shook, and they had dozens of new friends all around! Perhaps Emilisk's would feel better if she met some new friends? Posk's was very lonely, even if she would not admit it.

Porita was relieved to see it was a familiar face coming to meet them. She might have guessed as much. Few other people were awake at this hour and most of the wherhandlers were people she at least knew on sight by now. "Hello Emiliah," she smiled shyly. Despite being in the same class, she couldn't recall speaking much with the other girl before. "Are you well?"
