Oh... Embarrassed at the blunder, the boy flushed crimson and dutifully bent to copy S'far's letters to complete Malvayth's name. He erased it and wrote it again several times to commit it to memory, able to complete it much faster each time. Chir had a talent for muscle memory, and he was realizing much of his writing relied on it. It was all about repetition for him and some words clicked easier than others.
He beamed with pride at S'far's praise and looked down to admire his work with a nod of satisfaction. When the Weyrleader summarized his goal, Chir sat back and nodded seriously. It was nice that S'far caught on to his half-managed writings so well! Maybe he'd heard the golden dragon singing about it at some point and made the connection. Malvayth seemed terribly excited about it all.
Upon hearing S'far's advice, Chir took careful mental notes to share all of it with Malvayth. Cazan had been mistaken after all! Golden wherries did exist! They were as rare as the boy suspected. But he wouldn't be able to manage it alone, according to S'far. Chir still struggled to grow comfortable enough to mingle readily with the other candidates, still very much feeling like an outsider. With Sironar still in Benden, the young hunter had happily kept to himself and focused on caring for the horses in the stables, Chirp, and working on his lessons in private.
"Must be patient?" he wrote out in summary. Winter was a ways off now. While he would have much preferred to go now while the thrill of the hunt burned in his veins, he also knew that one had to plan for a hunt properly and not just go willy-nilly. Accepting this change, he considered it before adding another option. "Boar still okay I hunt?"
Chir still struggled with using proper grammar in his writings as the smaller words seemed superfluous to him when less would get the same intent across, but when he read his own words back to himself in his head, he knew it was wrong while also being what he wanted to communicate.
