Tousled red hair is held back behind an upturned face, green eyes closed in a place where memory's eye sufficed just as well as true vision. The 'Rider's shoulders are occupied by four flits, a smaller red-earthen-toned brown perches closest to his head, a lithe and proud looking green, twice the brown's mate to his left. A blue of a surprisingly deep coloration is curled up about his right shoulder, and overhead flies a massive bronze, his occasional creel the only sound the group makes. Behind them, strolls the long-legged grey-bronze. Full grown, but proportions seemingly stretched out to sheer gauntness, metallic flank tinged with a natural dulling grey.

It's been ahwile.

R'jari nods, his eyes opening and peering about the beach, gaze catching almost immediately, the unnatural dips and rolls in the dunes where old clutches have been laid, hatched, and abandoned.

"Yes it has."

The dragon's eyes swirl a pale viridian, concerned for the feelings that are flooding his lifemates mind... and failing to be expressed on the outside.

Why are we here ridermine?

"To Impress."

Another firelizard.

"Yes, 'Roth."

Wings unfurl in the heat, the dragon settling himself to the soft terrain. Lids close and the muzzle tilts out to the ocean before the reopen.

Fair skies.

R'jari smiles quietly, and with a gentle mental command, sends the four creatures about his head soaring off into the distance.

The last time he had been here was the Impressment of Dorov... and the blue was now a full-grown adult. He just... remembered Vix upon that day, his father's flit, his protector during childhood. He'd been lost too, a few seven-days later...

He had been unable to return to this place for a long time.

Steps become even lighter as R'jari approaches the clutch, and then finally comes to a stop. Settling down to his knees, he pushes unpleasant emotions of the past aside.. and sends out only warmth, love, and trust.

All the years of loss, and hatred of fate's foul plate, all that would be vanquished, with this new little life connected to his own.
