Arddra would have stolen food if she had a starving child to feed but it would still be wrong according to the laws. Not that she was one to obey every single rule without hesitation. She did try to do what was expected of her. Trelanov was correct that at this point in time there was nothing she could do about her situation.
"I can't change the past nor go back into the past and I am here now." Arddra agreed then sighed, realizing if she had never been kidnapped she would be a widow and at her age there was little likelihood she would remarry. At least here she could Impress a gold and that alone will give her a position and a purpose. It is hard to let go but with good friends especially her fellow candidates like Trelanvor and V'riy, the first dragonrider she called friend, the south could become her home.
"I can't wait till I Impress a dragon more and more as I get to know people more, like you and V'riy who really is the first dragonrider I actually trust now. I think I am finally ready to make the South my home if we never return North." Arddra realized that it may be a long time yet before Tsuen let them go North but Arddra was quite certain once her dragon was old enough to fly and travel between she will go North, even if just long enough to see her home. But that was a thought for another time.
Arddra finished another fish and reached for another. Before she came here she rarely if ever gutted a fish. Most times when she had fish they were traded or bought for already gutted.
"I have come to realize by now that once I Impress a Gold there will be a time she will rise to mate and I will end up with the rider of the bronze who caught her. Not really a comforting thought but I have to accept it. IN truth all I can really hope is I like that particular rider and my dragon likes his dragon and he catches her every time. Either way I want my dragon to have large clutches each time she rises, it will be worth any...discomfort on my part."
"I think a new subject is in order, I am sure I have bored you more than enough with my issues," Arddra decided and smiled at Trelanov. "Which type of dragon are you hoping to Impress, Trelanov? I can see you with a bronze or a brown."
