(Alright)
Farron lent on the side of the building, waiting for the others to arrive. He crossed his arms and hoped they would get here shortly, which was strange for him since normally he wouldn’t be hoping for company.

As the group approached the Hall of Elders, Aurelius noticed Farron was already there and waiting. He waved to the other dragon rider and kept moving forwards.
"Do you know if they're busy? The elders, that is?"

"Farron!" Mara shouted and waved. He was her first friend, even though she still wasn't sure whether he liked her or thought she was annoying did matter to Mara. She ran up to him. "Want to help me later in the library, maybe you could teach me more reading and writing?"

Farron shrugged, “Sure, Mara and I’m eighty percent sure they are free, Aurelius.” He said, peeling himself off the wall.

Lucky waved to Farron

"Yeah, I mean, what do they do all day, conduct war meetings?" Aurelius laughed a bit. They hadn't been to war as a society in his lifetime. The only time they were used as fighters was to help foreign royalty wage war, and it was all by choice. He started up the steps and told Nox to wait for him.
Why not me? Everyone else gets to take their dragons in!
"That's the problem, love. Dragons take up a lot of space. We need to bring in Riven for sure."
"I'm leaving Valhalla out here," Valkyrie said, "He'll keep you company."
But he's an asshole.
"Nox! Language!" Aurelius shouted.
Like you're any better.
"Okay, yes."
Valkyrie smirked a bit. "She's right, you know."

Farron smirked, “Ysethen will be out here too, don’t worry.” He said and looked up to the sky, “Well, he will be if he every gets back here.”

"So will Jade," Quincy told Nox. She glared at Jade as the green dragon laid down.

I'm doing this because I want too.

I have to go in? Mara laid her head on his. "You'll be fine, I'm here aren't I?" She smiled. It was almost like she has waited for Roven her whole life, and now she had a best friend by her side. "Plus they may know more about you." Riven rubbed his head against her face. Hopefully I'm not as useless as I think I am. mara clicked her tongue. "Does anybody else have a dragon that's insecure or is it just mine?"

Fair enough, Nox replied.
"This one's not insecure. Quite the opposite really. And Valhalla is a little too secure with himself," Aurelius explained, "But honestly, just like humans, dragon personalities run the gamut."
Aurelius led the group up to the big double doors on the front of the building and held one of them open for everyone else. Inside, there was a big wall with a passageway on either side, and immediately in the foyer, there was a staircase going up to the right and down to the left. Another pair of dragon riders- a man in his 30s and a woman in her 50s, were both standing guard.
"Do you need to see the elders?" the woman asked.
"We do. We have a new Dragoncaller with us, and her dragon," Valkyrie said.
"I believe they are free at the moment. I will check, then escort you on back as soon as I know for sure."

Farron rolled his eyes, “Sometimes I think we’re too formal here.” He muttered.

"Man, I'm getting nervous now." Mara chuckled, wiping her hands on her dress. Riven stood closer to her, feeling that she was nervous. "Are these elders mean?" Because hers were, sure they pampered her but only to get her ready for her death. She never got to do anything she wanted.

"Oh, absolutely. It's all a guise for how lazy they are," Aurelius said, "They have to make it look like they're doing work. But of course, guards make sense, as they're important and old and can't defend themselves very well."
He turned to Mara. "They're tolerable. Very much set in their ways, but they're kind and fair for the most part. They would never hurt anyone unless they were a criminal."

Her hand clenched her chest. Hopefully they didn't know about her people, they weren't very kind to anyone and who's know what they could have done in the past to people. "Okay." She nodded and looked ot the ground preparing to meet them.

“Don’t say anything sarcastic, I learnt that the hard way.” Farron muttered to Mara.

Finally, the guard returned.
"They're waiting in the meeting hall," she said, leading the way on.
When the young riders came in, they were all in their seats in a big U-shaped formation around the center of the room. Aurelius came to stand in the center and beckoned for the others to follow.

Mara stood close to anyone she could. "Do we talk first or do they?" She whispered. Would it be rude to talk first or would it be rude not to introduce herself first. "Hello, I'm Marahasi Hunter, uh, nice to meet you."

"What brings you here, Miss Hunter?" the woman sitting at the center of the formation asked.
She was old, just like all the other elders, and she had kinky, silver hair that went about halfway down her back, which was more hair than most of the other elders could boast. On her face were a pair of silver wire-rimmed glasses, which she pushed up so that she could see Mara better. Nothing about her was intimidating. In fact, she could easily have passed as any of the young riders' grandma.

"Um, I-" Should I tell the truth or lie a bit. "I ran away from home." It would probably be best if she didn't lie, from what she heard they were very powerful people. "I'm from the Ibiweth tribe, if you've ever heard of them."

"Hm…" the woman sighed, "Ibiweth tribe, yes? Congratulations on making it here in one piece. That's more than most Dragoncallers from there can say."

"Uh, Thank you?" She wasn't entirely sure what to say. Riven laid his head on Mara like he usually does when she doesn't pay enough attention to him. "Riven stop, this isn't the time. This is Riven, my dragon."

Frost and Lucky watched from their place.

Another one of the elders spoke up- a short and jovial man with a long beard.
"That's not exactly a dragon, my dear. It's a drake. Might I ask how you found him? They're from much farther east," he said.
Aurelius quivered a little with excitement. So Riven really was a foreign dragon, but how did he come to this strange place?
