"Yes, sir." Azril tries not to stare at the color of Osbâr's skin too much. "Not a lot, but I worked for the local smith in my town for a few years to earn a few extra wages."
Obsȃr nods. "That works for me. Why don't ya come by tomorrow and we can get ya started."
Azril casts a glance at Dernis to see if that's all right.

Azril casts a glance at Dernis to see if that's all right.
Dernis nods. Obsȃr extends a hand for Azril to shake. Though for the most part, his frame is rather slight, his little arms are tremendously muscled. "Welcome aboard."

Azril shakes it with a broad grin. "Thank you, sir!"

Azril shakes it with a broad grin. "Thank you, sir!"
"Of course. Glad to have ya."
"Thanks for your time, Obsȃr," says Dernis, leading Azril out of the smithy.
Leaving the forge, they head towards the center of Paladeen and the tall tower where Azril met Hithrol earlier that day. Dernis points up at it. "This is the heart of Paldeen. All the major decisions are made there, by my dad and the other senior Riders."

Azril admires the tower with wide eyes. "Wow."
"Speaking of whom . . ." Aretgarlja says softly. Above the tower, Azril can see two specks growing in the sky. They soon become visible as dragons, one red and one black. When they are almost directly overhead, they carefully land in the grass outside of the tower and directly in front of Dernis, Aretgarlja, and Azril. Both appear to be male and quite large. The red one has a mane of black feathers unlike any of the dragons Azril has met so far. He also carries a rider, a woman about Maicyn's height with the same dark coloration as Dernis and steely gray hair that hangs to her shoulders.
Dernis greets them warmly, embracing the woman. "How was the trip?" he asks.
The woman grins. "Same as always. Kaigan almost got us into trouble, but Olifin smoothed things out."
"We can talk about it later," Dernis says. "For now . . . Azril, this is my mom, Tya, her companion, Kaigan, and Aretgarlja's dad and my dad's companion, Olifin. Mom, Kaigan, Olifin, this is Azril Betynsohn."

OOC: More characters! At least Olifin's familiar.
Azril makes an awkward bow to them all, feeling a little excited and flustered. "It's an honor to meet you all!"
OOC: Oh gosh, there's no way I'll be able to remember them all. XD

"Thank you."
"Well, we'd better go report to Hithrol," says Tya, "It was nice to meet you, Azril." Olifin and Kaigan fly off while Tya heads up into the tower.
Dernis claps Azril on the shoulder and points toward the tower. "Come on. Let's go get you a house."
OOC: I might be able to whip up a character list, if I find the time.
Dernis nods. "All of our Riders are assigned a house. I think there are a few free right now. Let me see . . .."
OOC; Okay, I'll see what I can do. If nothing else, I'll at least be able to finish it over Thanksgiving Break.
OOC: Sounds good!
Dernis and Aretgarlja lead Azril away from the tower, towards an area in the corner between the forge and the mess hall. Dernis points at a house. "This one is free. You'll need to get it confirmed with my dad, but by nightfall I expect it will be all yours."

OOC: Here's the house.
"Wow, thanks!" He gives Dernis a quick look. "I don't suppose you have, uh, any policies about pets in the house, do you?"

OOC: It's cute. :3 Thanks.
"As long as you take care of it and clean up after it, it's not a problem. You will be expected to keep your house and the immediate area respectably clean."
