Yfris was in his element—well, one of them. He happily nattered on about Misty Hold as he gave K’dar the grand tour. It wasn’t that he loved history or thought K’dar would be interested in it, but Yfris loved talking and sharing stories which was what he was doing as they passed through various rooms. He pointed out a favourite childhood memory in one room while in the next he would toss about something embarrassing about his brother all while he smiled and gestured wildly. It had been a while since someone had come to the Hold that didn’t know the history or wasn’t born into the life and didn’t care about the various objects he pointed at. The bronzerider grew up in a jungle! That was ridiculously fascinating and Yfris would grill him for more details on that later but he had to finish showing off his own world first.
“Now with that incredibly boring tour out of the way, I could lead you back to the library where I noticed your eyes grow larger than they already were everywhere else, but then I would be incredibly bored and you don’t want that to happen to your host.” Yfris did his best to avoid the library. Going in there meant learning and reading and neither appealed to him when there were far more interesting things to do.
“I recall teasing you with the ocean and you probably cheated when you brought me home from the Gather or even today and stole a peek, but you wouldn’t have seen it from the ground,” Yfris led K’dar outside and down a path to a stable full of horses. He enjoyed riding and had a preferred beauty that he went to without thinking so he could greet her. “Have you ever ridden a horse? I heard you didn’t have any in the South—how wonderfully savage of you! I suppose dragons do make up for the lack of horses and are arguably far more beneficial. Still, the view from the ground while riding is a treat but if you haven’t ridden before, we can double up. It would be absolutely scandalous and the holders will talk about it for days but that only encourages me to do it. We can also walk if you prefer. Same view, only slower.” He didn’t want to completely traumatise his newest friend but Yfris suspected taking a stroll with a handsome bronzerider would still be viewed as scandalous to some but less so than snuggling close on a horse.
