V’ler sighed but it wasn’t his usual one of boredom or having to deal with stupidity. This came from frustration and a hint of anger as egg after egg hatched in rapid succession. How was he supposed to keep track of what was happening when it seemed like fifty things were happening at once? Everything had started out nicely with a few timid dragonets taking their time as the first gold found her bonded – though that had been a tense moment and V’ler had made sure to write a note about it. But now there seemed to be eggs bursting from all sides.
If only he trusted some of the other Harpers with the task of documenting all the finer details. This was a Hatching made for two so they could each dedicate their focus to one clutch. Since he didn’t have anyone to turn to as back up, V’ler was going it alone, his notes getting more clipped and his writing dropping a bit into sloppy territory as he quickly jotted down names and actions.
When the angry bronze appeared, V’ler had his own flashback to Hoth and froze for a moment. He had been on the Sands, still waiting for Veeth to hatch and find him, when the bronze came tearing through. Jada had been clawed but Indivara had snuck onto the Sands and joined their little group and she had been viciously mauled. It was Jada that jumped into action to check on the younger girl while the rest of them stood their shaking. He hated the sight of blood and that hadn’t helped anything either. At least he hadn’t vomited!
Recalling Indivara was close by, V’ler gave a quick glance in her direction but the dragonet was moving away from her area and was soon tangling with another dragonet. That, of course, was more important than worrying over what could be and the blueriding Harper made more notes, including the name of the brave man that stepped in and Impressed the shiny terror.
Once the second gold was revealed, the remembered fear from over two turns ago was completely forgotten and V’ler was back into Harper mode, quill flying over his parchment. At least the one good thing he could say about the quick-paced Hatching was that he’d be able to get back to bed sooner rather than later and V’ler was completely okay with that.
