By the shell, please let this go smoothly, Helyna thought to herself as she went to join Iliyith on the sands and make sure the gold was ready for the first group of candidates to come in. Helyna had spent most of her free time on the sands lately, a project or paperwork close to hand as she kept her dragon company and reassured her things would go smoothly. Even if she didn’t always believe that entirely.
Is it time already? The gold was curled broodingly around her precious clutch, but looked up as Helyna approached. “Afraid so. Are you ready, my darling?” Iliyith grumbled and adjusted the eggs again, making sure they were all perfect, especially the gold. She was protective of them all, but particularly that one—her first.
I suppose there’s no point putting them off any longer. Iliyith had been reluctant to agree to the touching after what had happened to Malvayth’s eggs, but time and distance had helped to overcome those particular nerves. Though she would be watching the candidates closely and had insisted on longer breaks between the groups. Nudging the gold egg one last time and sighing, Iliyith moved away from them just enough to ease the candidates’ nerves and allow them access, settling in to watch. Calling in the first group, Helyna went to join the gold and let the candidatemasters remind them one more time what to expect.
