R’nya’s lips twitched slightly at Verec’s dry words, and he nodded slightly. He was mildly surprised, but also not surprised at all. Some of the Hall Masters were definitely out for financial gain, but R’nya was greatly relieved that the man in charge of the entire planet’s well being wasn’t one of them. This man clearly put the education of his students before any financial gain, and that pleased R’nya. Nothing worse than someone teaching a bunch of dimwits about Healing who were incapable, simply because someone paid well enough. As a result, when Verec said that he wanted to interview the individuals that R’nya wanted to enter into the Hall, the Weyrleader actually gave a small smile.
“Of course,” it was really no different than sending the dragonriders out with their Search beasts. R’nya had no desire to let just anyone into his Weyr, even though sometimes dragons could Search out some very questionable candidates. Very. He felt Xyreith’s amusement, even as he considered Verec quietly after the man finished his conditions, and asked if R’nya found them acceptable. R’nya actually found the question rather amusing, but he didn’t fault the Masterhealer for wanting his companion to actually verbalise agreement, instead of just sitting there with a flickering smile of amusement trying to form.
“I can agree to these terms,” R’nya said slowly, still studying Verec thoughtfully. “The other Weyrleaders will agree, too,” he said simply, not because he was prone to speaking on their behalf, but simply because it was that, or risk losing every dragonrider with a lick of Healer training to Fort Weyr, and R’nya was quite sure he wouldn’t be the only one who didn’t want a bar of that paperwork. A transfer here or there was fine, it really wasn’t such a big deal… but not every other dragonrider across the other two Weyrs.
“I would also like to extend the invitation to those who were trained before they found themselves in Katila.” R’nya had no desire to outright bring up the whole Searching/Stealing debate and all that came with it, but he knew for a fact that there had been several Healers who were snatched away to Impress in Katila – those young men, and their Harper brothers, had been the easiest to spirit away, since they were the most commonly found wandering between Holds both big and small. R’nya lifted his eyebrows slightly, meeting Verec’s eyes; a silent question as to whether or not the Masterhealer would take that, too.
