Arddra felt a little more relaxed when S'kef indicated he had not thought she was trying to pry into his business. Yet he way he looked at her made her nervous all the more.
She picked at her food, finding herself suddenly too nervous to eat. Why did she sit this close to one of the most intimidating dragonriders she was aware of?
Then he questioned about her not wanting anything. Well there was one thing she wanted, she wanted to go home, even for a little while. She didn't want to give up on the chance to Impress a gold dragon but she would like to see her family and confirm whether her husband had survived his illness. He shrugged before she could work up the nerve to say anything else and turned away. In fact she was certain he was going to get up and leave.
Next thing she knew his firelizard launched herself at her, screeching and flapping her wings in a rather startling display. Arddra had never seen any firelizard act this aggressively and was at a loss why. Instinct kept her from panicking, only focusing on protecting her eyes and face should it attack with talons and fangs. At least for the second before S'kef slammed his fist onto the table with such force the firelizard froze in place.
The man's scream was the final straw...Arddra jumped out of her chair so fast and quickly it was sent flying and she was backing away as quick as she could till her back hit the wall behind her. It wasn't far enough from the angry dragonrider but she was too terrified of S'kef striking her to turn her back on him to run.
