Thorn grinned at his blue, whom glared at Karsky's lizard, then chirped again. Nymph moved to Thorn's shoulder and cheeped in her ear, b'fore curling around his neck in one fluid motion.
Thorn smiled, and nodded at Karsky's words, "'Tis true, F'lizard's are Dragons, or what Dragons where once."

FLASH!

Thorn of eight turns watched the Dragons muster for Threadfall that was due to fall a few miles away. He glanced over the green wing to find his mother, Rarena, sitting aboard her Dragon Tokith giving orders to the young weyrlings whom were distributing firestone. Thorn moved his eyes to the Bronze wing, then sharply back to the Greens, and he noticed Tokith's color to be bright and shining. Even only eight the weyrbred boy knew the signs of mating, and he saw Tokith crane her neck to eye the bronze wing where her longtime mate Mizeth and rider K'ol. Thorn ran waving his arms at his mother, urging her to not go, for if she went into a Threadfall, Tokith would fly for mates, not for the menace.
He screamed his mother's name, but stopped when he saw the wings lift. Tokith let out a scream, and a challenge, breaking from the wing forcefully. Mizeth darted after, and several other blues and browns and only one other bronze besides the dainty Mizeth.
The two Queens roared, and a few green screeched. Total mayhem as some of the older riders tried to gain order, one being Thorn's Ucle M'ti and his brown, Ghith.
Tokith fought at the two golds whomt ried to subdue her, and Raren was susceptile to claw, tooth and flame. Thorn could just make out her form as she......unbuckled her straps!
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Thorn screamed and he saw his mother fall, and he saw her slam into the ground, and heard her back and neck break as she hit, landing with a sickening thud.
Through tears Thorn ran to her, but Mizeth landed in his path, K'ol leaping from his back and clinging to Thorn, both of them convulsing with desperate pain ridden sobs.
A scream...Tokith, and she disapeared, suiciding between for her love of Rarena, leaving the pernese behind, and entering the cold death of between.
