Torath rumbled happily at the children that ran around him as others climbed up on his paws. He twitched his tail back and forth lazily, some of the older children ran back and forth, jumping over it when it moved. Yet other children had climbed up beside N'kal and were watching him make his little carved dragon. There was an amused smile on N'kal's face that he couldn't seem to erase. It had been a long time since he had felt the urge to simply smile. Children being around, laughing and playing even after so much tragedy, was the only thing that could have made him smile that much. They are young and unspoiled. , Torath observed with a deep rumble as he puffed out a breath of air from his snout, sending several children running and giggling, only to come right back for him to do it again. I would have to agree, he replied, amused at his dragon's antics, while he asked the boy sitting next to him his opinion on the carving.
He was told he thought a bronze should have bigger wings and N'kal laughed out loud before agreeing. Sadly the piece of wood he had wasn't as big as he would have liked, but it would make for a decent dragon, laying down with it's wings folded against it's back. N'kal continued to shape the wood into a little figure, losing himself in the task for a bit until Torath's warm voice washed over him.We have company.. Hmm? Of course we do..or have you had a senior moment and forgot the herd of children running about., he answered absently. Torath grunted at him, but before he could answer another voice washed over him like a breath of fresh air. He looked up then, at hearing Ameris' amused voice and granted her a rare true smile. "Well now, I wouldn't say we are suckers for them...", to which a couple of children giggled and he laughed. "Okay...maybe a little. It is good to see you Ameris, how are you? And where is little Rislan?", he said in a rather uncharacteristic amount of words while Torath picked up his head, slowly as not to injure any of the children, and turned to look at Mizeath. Greetings Mizeath. You look radiant as always. Care to join me in the amusement of the little ones? , he rumbled at the young gold, as courteous as always.
N'kal turned to look at Torath when he caught the movement from the corner of his eye. He shook his head at the bronze, who was just beside himself with so many golds roaming around and growing well. He certainly hoped the great beast did not intend to try and chase them all..he might have a hard time with that himself, he was rather fond of waking beside the same person rather than next to just any or ever one Torath wanted to chase. Luckily thus far, he had been more than willing to only chase Okalinath, but if he decided to chase all the new golds when they rose.You worry too much , rumbled at him deeply. I am entitled...you pay far to much attention to these young golds for my nerves to be able to handle., he teased Torath lightly then turned to Ameris and offered her a hand to pull her up beside him. He liked Ameris, she was level headed and smart. She was a good mother and though she had had a rough time of it in her past, she was a good woman and was an excellent Jr. Weyrwoman in his eyes. "Care to sit a while with us?", he asked her casually.
