Ilandra felt the Telp being ripped
out of her hand. She had needed to make a choice and had decided the best
course of action was to keep hold of the two others. Who knows what would
happen if she let go of them. Though she worried about what would happen
to them without the Telp, at least she wouldn't burden her conscious with
the act of letting one of them go.
Time seemed to stretch on and though it was hard to say how long they were
in the matter-less state of transport, finally that state ended and
Ilandra was relieved to see they'd all gotten out in one piece.
Ryan still held on to Figaro so the other men would not get away. His
attention slipped a bit when he opened his eyes and saw the unfamiliar
sight of a dragonry in front of him. Large reptilian creatures flew in the
sky or sunned in the meadows. Grazing livestock seemed unperturbed by the
presence of the predators, giving him at least some reassurance that they
wouldn't get eaten.
Figaro took the opportunity to break free and he dashed away, choosing to
let his grudges be when they might mean he'd get in jail. In a new place
where nobody knew him, he'd be perfectly fine on his own.
Not long after he'd escaped, he stumbled across a man who claimed to be a
dragonrider, a searchrider even who would take him to the dragonry.
Apparently they were used to travellers from all over the planet. People
came to impress a dragon and he was free to try.
Figaro could hardly believe his luck. The flipside of the coin however was
that both Ilandra and Ryan had been searched as well. But the Weyr was big
and he'd just keep out of their way. A little disguise went a long way in
his experience.
