Rhaedalyn had, naturally, been fretting over her friend for days. She knew how much Kahleena had feared flights and for it to finally happen had been traumatizing for them both. It not only left her feeling for her friend but made it painfully obvious that in the near future Aradissicath would fly and Rhaedalyn would be chased by a lusty group of men and used to fulfil the desires brought around from their dragons. It of course made for one shy weyrling and Rhaedalyn had purposely avoided going to see Kahleena for two days before finally tagging along with R’nya the day before to check on the woman with a slice of pie in hand.
That one quick visit was all it took to remind Rhaedalyn that nothing had really changed and everything was still the same with the world so the invite to go to the river was gladly received and both rider and dragon were looking forward to it. She has so much energy. Aradissicath pointed out as she came to a stop to let the older gold prance around them without any chance of collision. “I know! It’s so wonderful to see.” It reaffirmed once more that Okalinath and Kahleena were fine after their maiden flight and Rhaedalyn smiled brightly at the gold and then waved to Kahleena.
With a giggle, Rhaedalyn urged Aradissicath to join Okalinath and the dragonet pranced, stumbling only once, to the water where she jumped in with an inelegant splash following her. The hug was gladly returned and Rhaedalyn fixed a strand of Kahleena’s hair as they pulled apart. It was a small gesture but she wanted to reassure her friend in some way that she was always there to help her out. It was a delicate topic, just like the Impression of Okalinath had been since they were standing near each other as the dragonet came towards them but they got through that. In a way, Rhaedalyn suspected she was the weaker out of the two of them when it came to emotions and having her feelings hurt or being afraid of dealing with some things so she wanted Kahleena to know this wasn’t going to shatter her like a piece of fragile glass either.
“I’m glad they both love the water or else bath times would be horrible to deal with!” She replied cheerfully, already pushing all the dreadful thoughts away again. This was a day of fun with friends! “Although I’m not looking forward to tending to Aradissicath when she’s fully grown! I’ll be all day in the water. Think about how prune-y I’ll be!” Rhaedalyn giggled over the idea, one hand covering her mouth as the other set down the little bag of supplies she had been given the day after the hatching from a helpful dragonrider. So many riders wanted to say hi and help her now, it was a bit odd but so nice!
