De Wind vanuit het Oosten

DeWinvahO

STATS
Name: De Wind vanuit het Oosten
Gender: Female
Race: demigod
Cardinal Direction: East
Colours: Yellow and Brown
Gift: the power to create sandstorms.

Description: DeWinvahO (Vaho) is all yellow and brown. Her skin has a deep caramel sheen, her hair is a rich golden blond and her eyes are a warm amber-like orange. She has soft yellow wings that remind people of autumn leaves. Her pointed ears give her an elf-like appearance, her antennae hint more at a butterfly.
Personality: Vaho is incredibly shy. She's afraid of meeting new people and tremendously awkward in social situations that don't involve her family (and even at those Vaho is usually the quiet one). So Vaho usually keeps herself hidden, her mother's gift of sandstorms helping her somewhat to shield her presence.
Origin: child born to the goddess Wind and the regular human Serdayn.

Bond: Yellow Conraeth (m) from Dawn Watch Weyr (Nexus Atumn Gather 2024)

Vaho looked around. She'd been at home. But now she was not. Brought on by her anxiety, specks of dust and sand started vibrating and some even flowed up in the air, ready to be let loose to protect the Eastern Wind. Vaho pressed herself to the wall of the buildings she didn't recognise. The smooth surface didn't object and led her gaze toward an opening leading to a larger road. She trembled when she saw others there.
More dust and sand rose up and Vaho was ready to run away when she realised she didn't know where she could even go. She was lost, alone and very far from home. And then someone coughed to draw her attention.
Vaho let out a scream and every speck of sand that had been levitated, launched toward the stranger who stepped back, bewildered.
"Excuse me, I was just wondering if you needed a hand..."

HATCHING
Vaho had remained at Dawn Watch Weyr after her not so elegant discovery by one of it's searchriders. Luckily she'd instinctively hidden her wings and antennae upon arrival. The sudden sand-attack had been explained away as a freak draft wind in the narrow passage.
The searchrider had escorted her to the Weyr and after some basic questions, Vaho had been given a room and a spot in the next dragon hatching. Vaho knew of dragons, her mother had bonded one after all. So she knew she might not be able to uphold her disguise after she'd bonded, but maybe the dragons would shelter her from discovery. She'd claimed to have come from the Far East, which wasn't exactly wrong, and had hinted that whether or not she bonded, she'd be returning sometime. Whether or not she'd be able to return home without a dragon was doubtful however, so Vaho did her best in the classes for the candidates.
Finally, one bright autumn day, she and the other candidates were called out to the Hatching grounds. The air was tense as people tried to get the attention of the hatchlings that spilled from the eggs.
Near the end of the hatching, Vaho suddenly caught the gaze of a bright yellow dragonet with a faint speckled hide. His bright green eyes looked out into the world with proud but without malice and when their eyes met, Vaho felt like a warm blanket shielded her from hurt.
"My name is Conraeth, my Eastern Wind."

WEYRLING
Stirring up the sand and wind to scrub and clean Conraeth's hide, Vaho kept watch to see whether or not anyone was approaching. The duo found themselves in a secluded spot. Most of the other Weyrlings preferred the lake to bathe, but Vaho could make better use of the sand.
"It's warm and comfortable." Conraeth acknowledged.
"It's a good thing no-one has caught us."
"The dragons know and help us." Conraeth reassured her.
"The dragons know far more than they let on." Vaho agreed.
"Everyone is entitled to have a little secret of their own."
"I agree. Do you think people will miss us?"
"There's no need to stay away forever. We can visit."

FLIGHT
"Ready?" Conraeth asked his bond.
Vaho released her breath and tried to relax her shoulders.
"It feels like forever but we'll arrive as if no time has passed. Although, what is time really?"
"Spoken like a true immortal."
"Hush. Say goodbye to your world and get ready to see mine."
"And many others."
