D’hys figured since he didn’t have anything better to do that day that he would attend the execution. It wasn’t something that was witnessed regularly and while it didn’t sit well that they would lose a dragon, a bronze at that, he didn’t care one way or the other over T’shiro. From what he had heard from friends in the man’s wing, T’shiro wasn’t the best at leading and was eccentric with the jewellery he was constantly seen in but wouldn’t give up for anything that would actually benefit him or the community as a whole back when they sent traders North. So it didn’t seem to be a real loss on the human side but it was always hard to lose a dragon. After the Plague, every dragon counted and they had lost through accidents or unstable minds too many weyrlings, which was saying a lot coming from the man that didn’t really notice weyrlings until they graduated.
He stood off to the side, somewhere in the middle of the assembled crowd so he wasn’t attracting any attention for being too interested or not interested enough and hiding in the back. V’zire wasn’t with him, obviously, as the greenrider was far too delicate for such matters. Niskziath would likely go on with her day without even realizing what was going on as Zeianth assured him so there wasn’t a need to play up sympathy or coddle the man in a time of need. D’hys figured he could stop in after the keening had ended to make sure everyone was still happy and earn a few more points through the gesture but for now, he’d be himself and watch how others reacted.
I will alert D’hys to your distress, Zeianth replied in his usual calm manner when Astoreth reached out for him. That was one complicated green pair but they were interesting as well. He enjoyed the company of the more timid dragons that regarded him with some respect with their friendship but Astoreth had a bit of a fight in her that made for some fun exchanges at times before she also fell into a more submissive role and quieted down. Because of her mood swings and D’hys’ own interest in A’liran and his odd ways did the blue follow through with what he said, Your feisty friend is about to do something stupid according to Astoreth.
D’hys was confused for a split second, wondering which feisty friend was being referred to until the dragon’s name was given. He quickly scanned the crowd for A’liran and started to push through when the man was spotted. His intentions would go unappreciated though as the greenrider finally gave into his anger and blurted out his opinion, earning the attention of S’kef. D’hys watched for that reaction and was impressed at how calm the brownrider remained, dismissing A’liran as he would a fly landing on his arm. He continued to move, intent on at least following the order to remove A’liran but still he was too slow as some unknown – to him, meaning it was a Candidate – man beat him to it and worked to remove the struggling greenrider.
Apologise to Astoreth for me to keep her calm. She will have an outburst herself soon, at me if not the whole crowd. D’hys wasn’t concerned about failing the impromptu mission but the lecture on failing didn’t appeal to him and he already knew how worked up that dragon could get. He almost felt sorry for the girl having to put up with such shenanigans all the time.
D’hys is sorry he wasn’t closer and couldn’t reach your rider in time to keep his mouth shut. Mission accomplished, Zeianth turned his attention back to his human and watched through D’hys’ eyes what would happen next.
