Back

She knew that everyone watched her so carefully because she was Mob. But she wouldn't be any more. She was determined to do right by Istvan and Rey, and everyone at Dun Keiba. She'd confessed their parents crimes, wondering why it felt so much better to have done so than to keep it bottled inside.

She was old enough to know her feelings were torn. She was also old enough to know when they were leading her astray. But now, now was not the time to think about that. Right now, she was summoned with the others to the drakling rooms!

Others were fortunate to have folks to care for them, but Elgy instead had to keep an eye out for herself. After the first few hatchlings came to their new knights, one, a lovely Night, walked out.

After the impression of Celia and her drak, another female drak came from behind her mother. This time, an astonishing Night drak went to the aspirants. It didn't take long before she had made her pick. She immediately went for Elgy Sethoic. The night looked closely to the member of a mob that had come from Dun keiba. Then softly nuzzled her bond, as her mother called out her name: "Bovikigi"

Elgy grinned at her drak and both of them left after the other bonded draklings and their knights.

"We will make a good team," she said to Bovikigi when they'd eaten and rested up. There was a celebration going on, which every one it seemed in the castle was invited to. "I've heard that Xander and plant Kochi will be our trainers." She glanced toward the young blond man. "I think he's really gorgeous. I wonder if he's dating anyone..."
