Subject: +She watched the new Impressor, pale hues brightening slightly+

Strange creatures, these dragons. So young but so sure...quite a marvel though...+A rare sort a half-smile flashed across her face for an instant before fading. What would she do if she Impressed though? What would happen? Doubts and thoughts swirled in her head like a nightmare waiting to come into reality. Seeing images of the dragonets hatching, watching the femme with what might be known as disgust before the ambled toward some more exuberant girl or boy. Being the only person who had walked onto the Sands but stepped off without Impressing.+ Doubts and suspicions get you nowhere, so if leave them all behind you'll get where you want to be... +Her sister's words echoed in her head. Ryeta had been so cheerful, even though she was as mistreated as Alli had been. The second oldest in the family and a female, her father so her as useless; a burden on the family. Ryeta had drowned when the river flooded about 4 or 5 Turns ago, when Alli was 13 and Ryeta was 16. The femme had always smiled...it got to be very discomforting sometimes, when Father yelled at her. He just couldn't break her spirit, and since he couldn't it had encouraged the youngest-Alli-to be vigilant. But she had died, and barely anyone took notice, and the vigilant girl that had taught her couldn't teach anymore. Allirea snapped from her thoughts, a low sort of growl sounding in her throat as she dammed up the emotions that she had learned to keep hidden from view. Ryeta couldn't help her now, there was no use in reminiscing about lost souls. She watched as two new Candidates walked onto the Sands, both boys. Watching each, studying them almost, the blonde locks hiding the snow colored orbs. The blonde one struck her interest, seeming more distant than the more exuberant Candidates she had met earlier, like those girls...what were their names? Rinali and Faylinn and Jenna, that's who they were. Rinali ran to the male, chattering away as always, her firelizards sitting on the ledge, chittering like small children fighting over a toy between the humming of the dragons.+ She'd better watch how much she talks, talking to the wrong person could bring trouble to her. The again...she seems like someone who could befriend anyone she talked to. What a trait to have...and I being a dimglow decided not to...should I apologize? +She sighed, walking toward the pair, shaking her head slightly+
