"Is everyone here an orphan?" Jiania asked, laughing. "I'm not an orphan. I know who my parents are, they just.. refuse to know me. I was given to a Hold for drudge work, but the Harper insisted on taking me. The Lord was furious, but after I managed to light the entire kitchen on fire, he changed his mind." Jiania paused, remembering the momentuous day. "Luckily no one was hurt. But the Headwoman shouldn't have done that. I was only 6. I had no clue what I was doing. She just plopped me down and told me to stoke it." Jiania's brow knitted, and her voice lowered in anger. "Not that the Lord cared if it was my fault or not. So I was sent to Harper Hall, where I Impressed Bryni, the insane queen that's flying over there." Bryni chirped from her post by the door and flew back to Jiania. "No terrorizing Candidates, darling." Jiania tapped Bryni's nose lightly. "There, I was taught by the Masterharper. I mainly did composition and gitar work. I can't sing a note, but I muddled my way through basic pipe works. Bryni here sings better than I do." On cue, the golden trilled slightly, her warblings shifting into Jiania's favorite tune she had composed. "That's my life story, until I was Searched. I was walking the tables to Masterharper, but a Searcher burst into the Hall and claimed me. I could barely get out a 'yes' before he had me on dragonback and then in Fort." Jiania rolled one shoulder uneasily. That wasn't her entire Search, but she didn't know these people enough to divulge that information yet. But if someone asked me if I wanted a queen, would I tell them that? Jiania wondered slightly as she watched Bryni do aerobatics over their heads, trilling lightly as she landed on each one of them for the length of a breath before she was off again. Jiania smiled, knowing that her small queen was getting ready to do her first mating flight soon. Soon, Bryni. Jiania sent down the mental link between her and the queen. Bryni chirped slightly, having guessed at Jiania's words.
