Cazan sighed in relief as T'ryn claimed he was okay and his breathing seemed to settle and even out a bit more. She gave him another squeeze, pressing her face against him as she just tried to collect her thoughts. They had just watched someone die in their weyr, and it could have been either of them. The fact that they were still alive did very little to soothe over the fact that clearly they were being targeted. First the food, now flowers, and she heard Ista had their bath water tampered with. What was going to be next? What else could possibly have poison secretly added to it?
"Just stay here with me. I'm sure... I'm sure K'dar will show up soon. Maybe he can send the letter this time." Cazan shook her head as she focused on taking a few deep breaths of her own. Part of her hated how the focus was on her again, how S'far was probably going to be annoyed that one of his precious golds could have been hurt, how maybe if she didn't have Mal none of this would be affecting her at all. But then... she had no idea how things would have gone with T'ryn if she didn't have Mal. And what if he was also a target in his own right? Or what if he'd gotten poisoned while spending time with Mulrissa?
A wave of despair began to emanate from her dragon and Cazan did her best to soothe. None of this is your fault, Mal... I just... I'm upset and I don't know what to do and I'm so worried.It's because I'm too pretty isn't it?! The question caught her so off guard that Cazan's hands twitched where they clutched at her mate and she hiccupped, snorting softly through a sniffle. There was a very plausible theory that this was all because her dragon was gold, but she did not want a repeat of the black dragon incident. Luckily it seemed Mal already had a dragon to cuddle and console her, so Caz turned her attention back to her mate, giving him another squeeze. "Whatever you do, just don't get hurt again, please. If something happens to you..." she shook her head, unwilling to finish the sentence or the thought as she let out a shaky breath.
