Mind Pairing

The clutch in the Deep Cavern belonged to local draks. Their knights had continued their jobs but had been stationed around the Castle instead of heading out on longer scouting missions.
This worked out marvelously for Noelie who preferred to read and research anyway. She visited regularly to read but could also head out with her drak, Ore Voeshhi, the sire of the clutch. Ruben, the knight of Forest Jovti, had it a little harder. But the sturdy, calm knight made do. There were people to help in and around the Castle. And if he were honest, the closer the time for the mind pairing came, he actually preferred being near the Deep Cavern.
The Judges were still looking for aspirants, but as things went, Fate usually handled these things and it's not like he could head out and judge people himself.
When Jovti signalled that the waiting was done, Ruben alerted the Castle and then waited, a bit out of his comfort zone, but enduring.

The people filing into the Deep Cavern were mostly locals. There was one young woman who'd been judged at Acicade Castle. She was a musician and had sometimes come to play, claiming that bells had a soothing effect on stress. Another aspirant that could not be missed was an unusually coloured drak from Dun Keiba who was looking to pair after his Knight had gone missing.
The doors of the inner room creaked open and Jovti appeared, with three draklings in front of her. She encouraged them with a soft humm and then addressed the gathered aspirants and spectators.
"Thank you for coming here to meet my children. I prezsent you with Water Tahiti, Rain Avhiti and Plant Intihi."
Then she turned to her children and said to them:
"Go and mingle, I'll be here if you need me."

The draklings did as told and started checking out the gathered people. they paid attention to the aspirants but also the spectators and the waiting food. The draklings were all inquisitive although they showed it in a different way.
It was the Water drakling, Tahiti who gently pushed up to Adrienne and made a connection first:
"I loved your bellz. I can shmell them on you."
"I'm honoured you enjoyed them, Tahiti. I'll gladly play them for you whenever you want."
The more mischievous Rain was next. She had been stalking her prey, checking him out from afar, circling ever closer until he could no longer feign indifference.
"So it is me you want?" Iiaztaj asked.
"We match." Avhiti said.
And she meant more than just being rain and storm.
The Plant hatchling however, had circled the room, had interacted a bit, had fed and was now returning to his parents, getting acquainted with his father who he'd only heard from beyond the door.
"I'd like to ssstay here for a bit longer." he said, "I need sssome more time."
"Whatever you want my son." Voeshhi acknowledged.
