Maerihn had no idea that Larrikith often reached out. In her experience, it was rare for dragons to do so, not that she was an expert. As B'jin went to pay, the young woman refolded the scarf or two that she'd unfolded. Wouldn't do to leave something worse than how she'd found it.
As the green rider returned, Maerihn frowned, considering the many shops in Crom Hold. Finally, she brightened. "I know just the place!" With that, she led the way out. The miner's daughter was nothing but respectful. She held the door open, letting it close gently behind B'jin as they went. Her eyes, unbidden and unrelenting, moved to look at the beautiful green above the buildings. She couldn't help the sigh that escaped her but, as she noticed, her throat cleared.
"This place," she said, pointing to a door a few down. "It has a lot of the raw materials: hide, treated and/or colored, gems, lovely shaped metals." She paused as she held open the door. The outside cold wasn't as bad when your hands weren't wet. "But also pieces that crafters have traded to the seller for more materials. There are some lovely ones."
As they moved into the less bright interior, B'jin would see that Maerihn's description was perfectly accurate. Most of the shop was taken up with lovely materials that could be used in making pieces. One wall sported a beautiful display of already made items, some even with Master's stamps. There were a few cuffs with gems or stones placed artfully, necklaces woven from leather, and even lovely pouches with designs and metal clasps, some inset with gems.
She moved toward the display and pointed to one cuff in particular. It was a darkly tanned leather cuff with green stones placed artfully. "Since you're getting a blue scarf, you could get your weyrmate a cuff with green stones." She touched it lightly. "How long have you two been together?" Okay. She couldn't help her curiousity too much. Asking about his relationship was fine, right?
