Gabrin grinned at Ekshan, showing his approval for the cautious approach to the topic. Hopes were held high, no doubt, but he didn’t make them known. It mattered not, since the lordling already knew enough about Ekshan’s fascination with dragons to know such an invitation would be craved and sought after. That was why he’d make the man wait a bit longer for a proper answer to the riddle of the night. “My beloved wife is naturally the first person to be thought of. Alas, her pregnancy wouldn’t make her all that much fun to be around and I’m sure such a flight would only leave her rather queasy.” The hope that she’d be lost on the trip South wasn’t said aloud but it was tempting to consider bribing a dragonrider to lose her on the way. Life would be so much quieter again without her chipper babbling.
“Then I thought about my dear friend, Khoemi. I know we would have an enchanting evening together at such an event with alcohol flowing and music filling the air. However, he’s likely to play the dutiful husband and bring along his wife, even if she’s far too much of a handful and shouldn’t be let loose among that group.” Who knew what would come out of that woman’s mouth around dragonriders and their lifestyle. Then again, there was a chance she’d fit right in and they’d never see her again. Both held potential to be entertaining and Gabrin had to wonder if Khoemi really would bring the woman along.
“Though, I think I’ll extend my invitation to someone who has an interest in dragons and would be honoured and thrilled to attend a Hatching.” Gabrin had been picking at his nails, as if removing dirt from underneath already clean fingers but finally glanced back to Ekshan and gave the man another sly grin, “someone that I know won’t embarrass me with any unruly behaviour and won’t abuse my trust in them. Do you know of anyone like that?”
