"Oh... I thought she was a goldrider. My mistake." He paused, frowning for a moment and asked, "Or is she both?" Vondal didn't know anything at all about how things worked in a Weyr, he just remembered that the shiniest ones were the most prestigious, with the gold ones being the rarest and most important.
Upsetting an important lady was the last thing he needed... though he supposed he was already interrupting a different important lady. He quickly shook his head in response to her question. "No, not at all. This is my first time..." at least he thought it was his first time.
At least he now knew that dragons didn't eat people, though he wasn't sure if that was just a lie for his benefit, because the gold certainly looked more than big enough to be able to handily accomplish it. "I was just startled... wasn't expecting it. Sorry."
Vondal took a long soothing sip of his klah to finish it off and then held the cup back out to Sariel. "Thank you. And if we're going to see this other person can it be soon? I don't want to get caught here too late... I don't exactly have a place to stay so I would have to go back to the Hold."
