Ronarth rose from the ground, fanning his wings out and locking his anxious orange eyes on the frightened green. The bronze wasn't sure what frustrated him more, the invasion of his bonded's mind or the fact that he'd actually upset Shanith this much with his overzealous response. Roanrth hadn't meant to upset the pretty green! He was just trying to protect D'ren, who was so weak and fragile since the horrible incident. Ronarth hated the confusion and uncertainty and loomed over them since that horrible night. He hated worrying that his bonded might slip away from him at any moment. He hated that there was nothing he could do. But this was something he could do, right? Right?
He creeled and slunk over to her, bumping at her with his snout.Please don't go! he implored. D'ren is so sick. He scares me when he holds his breath or goes to sleep. I'm afraid he's going to leave me! That's why. That's the only reason! I promise!
D'ren felt Ronarth's fear like a knife. He clutched his stomach and closed his eyes, quietly pleading with the dragon to be calm. Ronarth felt the soothing and firm voice in his mind, beckoning him to be still and quiet for both their sakes, and for their guests. Ronarth creeled again and settled into the grass, resting his head on top of his crossed paws and sighing.Don't leave me. Don't leave me! Please?
"I'm never going to leave you, Ronarth," D'ren reassured the dragon, not realizing at first that he'd spoken out loud. He sighed in surprise and then let out a mild laugh. "I...I apologize. It's been a trying few sevendays for us," he said, nodding apologetically to R'ana. "I hope he didn't upset her too much."
He shook his head slowly and started to speak, but he caught his words when the door opened and a healer entered. "Hello there," he said, recognizing the healer as one of his regular caregivers. There were so many of them, and they all had such varying ideas of how best to treat his condition. It was a pain, but at least he knew his life meant something to them. He smiled to R'ana, suspecting that she had summoned this healer to come at this unscheduled hour. They rarely showed up at unappointed times!
