Subject: Return to the Sands...

The young green bounds in, her rumpled and exausted to-be rider trailing behind her. The dracling lies down suddenly with a soft thud in the Sands, raising a cloud of fine white dust.
The Queen has hatched.
Polath remarks placidly once the dust had settled around her once more. Astra, shocked out of her stupor for a moment, glances around the area, trying to locate the lucky girl. Seeing Koryn with the Junior Queen, she flashes the other a brief smile of congratulations. After watching Zapith hatch and Impress, Astra prods the still emerald form infront of her with one booted toe.
"Can we go now? I really need to get some sleep."
Rolling to her feet in unspoken agreement, the dracling steadies herself against Astra for a moment. She then realised she was just as fatigued as the girl, for Hatching had taken its toll.
Where do we go?
"I think we're supposed to sleep in the Weyrling Barracks. Their this way."
She motions with one freckled hand down the hallway. Polath dips her broad wedge shaped head in an unmistakable nod, and they amble along to the Barracks.
