Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

D'ren frowned. It wasn't his usual frustrated, I'm-trying-to-think frown, but rather a legitimately dejected one. "B'jin," he said, pausing for a moment to give the greenrider - his friend - a sad shake of the head. "I can't let you do that."
Had B'jin thought that out at all? Probably not...B'jin was spirited and spontaneous, and his request was probably straight from the heart. B'jin loved that kid. He loved him and wanted to set things right, that stood to reason. D'ren could imagine feeling quite the same. He knew he was ultimately responsible for all the poor misplaced stolens, but he didn't have to look at any of them directly in the fact and know that he was the one who plucked that particular child from their life and family.
B'jin did, though. Normally B'jin seemed so proud to be a searchrider, but it had it's dark sides too.
"I'm sorry, but we need to stay away from that kid's family, his girl included," he said, tone heavy with regret. He felt inclined to apologize, but he knew it wouldn't do any good. "I know taking him away was hurtful to him, but it's the same for all of them, B'jin. My heart goes out to him, but if we did it for him, we'd have to do it for all of them." He wasn't oblivious to the fact that such things had been done before, both with and without approval, but he thought this particular one was just too risky.
"I know he must miss her, but he's going to have to let go." It made logical sense, but D'ren also understood the power of closure. He imagined a bit of closure would be amazingly beneficial to most of the stolen candidates, but how could he give it to them without too much risk? They deserved it, but they deserved a lot of things they couldn't have.
Once again, he wanted to be sick.
