"Me?!" Mer blurted out. She was pretty sure she was last on most people's list for queen. She recovered her composure quickly and smiled. "Thanks for thinking so, but I don't think a queen would choose me. I'm too rough around the edges." She grinned and shrugged. Best she could hope for was probably a blue, but that wouldn't stop her dreaming of browns and bronzes.
Her face grew more serious at the mention of Benden. "It can't hurt and we certainly can't afford anything to happen to the eggs. Maybe Benden is busy recovering their loses. But that's probably too much to hope for." They couldn't risk that being the case at any rate. Vigilance was the first step in avoiding what had happened. It probably wouldn't stop attacks, but it might help more people be prepared to survive.
Mer focused back on the fishing rod. She scrunched up her face in concentration as she moved it to where D'nar suggested. Before long, she felt a tug on her line. "I got one!" she cried, yanking upward. It took several moments before she managed to pull a squirming fish from the river. Holding it tightly, she wiggled the hook free as she had seen D'nar to minutes before. With a grin, she tossed the fish into the bucket. "Now I've done my share," she declared, dropping the line in for another try. "Bets on who gets the next one?"
