Mylorah nodded at the idea of sitting down and followed along to the bedroom where she resisted the urge to flop onto the bed and curl up in the blanket. She did, however, make sure F'drel sat down beside her because she wanted him close for the comfort he brought her--and she clung to his hand almost as tightly as she clung to the necklace. Now that she was sitting and had a friend with her, Mylorah focused on calming down but it didn't work as well as she hoped. What was wrong, he asked? So much!
"I need your help, advice I guess. It's T'ryn's birthday today, which isn't the issue, well, not really. See, his aunt, my aunt, our aunt, no his aunt, likes family gatherings and of course is hosting a big dinner in his honour because that's just what she does and she even did that for N'mor, her brother's mate's son. I wonder if she would do that for Z'rin as well? He's N'mor's mate and it'd be an excuse for another party." She was getting off track but it felt far more comfortable to speculate about the chances of Z'rin having a party than it was to think about the one T'ryn was currently getting ready to attend.
"He asked me to go. Which is super sweet of him and I'd expect nothing less from T'ryn. I've never been out there since no one knows about me. I didn't even go to the winter gather she hosted for dragonriders a couple of turns ago just so I wouldn't have to run into any of them. But... he knows, Fen. R'nd knows who I am." She hadn't told anyone when she found out R'nd finally caught on to the not-so-secret secret--it wasn't like they kept it quiet as she had a habit of pointing out who her brothers were. As far as she knew, T'ryn, N'mor, probably Z'rin because of N'mor, and maybe A'tay knew R'nd knew. How could she tell anyone when she didn't even know what to think about it and how considerate the bluerider was being?
"Two months ago, R'nd's mother died and it's silly of me because I never met her but I never even thought about having a grandma before learning of her death. T'ryn and A'tay said she was pretty cool for an old lady and it made me wonder how much I'm missing out, you know? But it never bothered me before. Anyway, R'nd gave T'ryn this ring that belonged to grandma to give to me with a message that he figured out I'm his daughter but he would wait until I was ready to meet him since I clearly wanted space." She opened her hand so F'drel could see the ring. It was a silver band with a pattern etched all the way around it but it suited her tastes and Mylorah was a bit disconcerted about how R'nd had known that. Maybe he didn't and he just gave her the most boring ring he could find. How could she know?
