Subject: ...

The Birch trees start to hum, not them really, it’s the majiick inherent in the Glen, which intensifies, reaching its crescendo as the Plenyt age and become accustomed to others enough that they may Bond. The hum is only just noticeable, and Cariad shifts a little, her motherly instincts for her Plenyt worrying the none will find their life mate…She shakes that uneasy feeling off, and Jallya recognizes her Bonded’s apprehension, and calls to the hopefuls, “I’d suggest getting away from them and forming a ring around the glade. When they get ready to Bond, they can get edgy; you’d be too with all the majiick and emotions humming throughout your veins. If they scratch you, it’s not intentional, and it wont hurt much – unless it is intentional, or you try to push them down.” She waits for the Dwi to form a circle, fidgeting slightly, the majiick in the Glen had a lot to do with this, but Cariad also did. The Rian closed her mind to everything; she would serve as the opposite, a Balance for her Plenyt. As the working is released, the minds of every un-Bonded creature in the clearing are thrown open, shields are evaporated, they are completely vulnerable.

The first to move hesitantly is the silver-gray future Rian. She moves delicately, searching for the one meant for her…and she finds it in Rhowe’non, her mind voice a gentle hum, she speaks to the girl eagerly, excitedly. -Rhowen, I am Ariannaid, your Bonded.- She rubs affectionately against her newly Bonded’s leg, eyes shinning with delight and welcome.

Apparently heartened by his sister’s example – though truly, they are no longer sister and brother – the youngest is the second to go forth, and he heads for Shak, some vestige of his amusement shows still in his bearing, even at this auspicious occasion. -Shak, I am Chwarddiad, do you want food or sleep first?- He seems to laugh still, as if there is some great joke going on, and perhaps there is to him.

The blue and black males make a show of circling slowly, and the eldest pauses before Chysta, drawing out this moment as long as he is able, keeping the young woman in suspense. -My dear,- he says confidently, -I am Cyferbyn, and I’m rather hungry. Of course,- he continues suavely, -if you should prefer sleep, then by all means, we can commence with that first.- Ruining his solemnity, he butts against her leg and purrs, a smooth, urbane sound, quite unlike his mother’s. His…twin? Not quite, but close, heads towards the young man with similar coloring, and makes no pretense at gravity, showing his affection with abundance and enthusiasm. -I am Cellweiriwr! You should probably call me Weir or Cell instead. Long names seem to run in the family though!-

The second Fach trots towards Rhaki, her head tilted charmingly. -I am Glasgoch, and you are now my Bonded. You look like you need rest, and so do I. So, shall we sleep before we eat?- Her voice is authoritative, but also a trifle naïve. She is eager to get to know her new Bonded more closely, despite the fact that they now share minds…

The almond and silver walks smoothly towards Tiamat, and greets her warmly. -Tiamat, I’m Hydref, and I’m now your Bonded. Congratulations on your good luck,- he adds with a small, mental chuckle, and the equivalent of a smile. -Nap or dining? There should be ample food available, but it may grow cold. However, if we’re tired while we eat, we may not appreciate the flavor – and I would very much like to try new things. Meats well and good, but such a grand occasion deserves something special. No?-

With confidence born of long consideration, the vibrant black and red male makes his way towards Maia. His mental voice is a husky purr, honey sweet. - I am called Anfanol, Maia. We are to spend the rest of our lives together you know.- He gazes adoringly at her, though there is something like kindness and sympathy there too.

The last is the third Fach, and her varied coloring makes an splendid picture as she slowly and considerately walks towards Kendra. -Kendra, I’m Tywysoges. And we are going to be absolutely splendid together.- She nuzzles the young woman and adds confidently, -Believe me.-

Cariad releases her majiick and Jallya claps her hands for attention, Terrun stands beside her smiling, his hands around her waist. “Congratulations to the new pairs! There’s a feast of splendid proportions waiting for you in the Goldbirth Clearings. There should be enough for everyone – and your Wytti – so don’t worry if you need to sleep for a bit first. There’ll be lots left over.” Terrun nods, and smiles. “My sympathies to those of you who did not succeed. Please do not hesitate to try for the next litter. And the one after if you are still unsuccessful. My congratulations for those who did find lifemates this time around. You’re a very privileged bunch. At least until lessons start, that is.” Accompanied by their Wytti, the two Dwi make their way out towards the clearings, talking softly to each other.
