You've entered a brightly lit weyr. Slits cut through the weyr's walls reveal a bright blue sky. In the center of the weyr sits a girl and a full-sized dragon the color of summer leaves. The girl sees you and bekons you to come nearer.
Europa looks to be about fourteen or younger. She has long, straight brown hair that is almost black. She's shorter then you, but you get the feeling she just hasn't gone through her growth spurt yet. She takes the last of the riding straps off the dragon, having to stand on her tip-toes despite the fact that the dragon is crouching to aid the girl. With an almost reverence-like quality, the girl carefully takes the straps and hangs them on a metal hook on the wall. Then she turns to you. "Welcome! I am Europa, and this here is green Terwyth. Terwyth is finally an adult! And she's a beauty too, just like we both knew she would be." The dragon nuzzles her nose against Europa's hair. Europa grins, swatting her. "She's a good flyer too. She can outfly all the other dragons in the weyr, except for the queens, but that's 'cause a queen has bigger wings. Otheriwse I'd bet she could outfly Yria, too." Terwyth watches you with patience, giving a slight nod to you as you leave. |
