“Do you like it?” Bandit asked his instructor. “Well I don’t know about the background color could be more realistic.” His instructor Greg replied. “Think it will sell? I think it is really good because of the map of Pern in the back you know the whole map brings out the colors of Ganeth.” Bandit replied enthusiastically. “Bandit, you know that Ganeth is darker blue than that.” Greg replied he was very particular about the way his student drew his dragon. “But He looks prettier that way. It brings out his eyes.” Bandit replied looking for the good in the painting. “Well it will sell for it is vary well painted in fact the best you’ve done yet of Ganeth” Greg said in reply. Here I have an idea, before you go home why don’t you draw Froth, the ice blue, which Kelly just got. (Kelly was another student that Greg tutor in his art teachings) “Okay” Bandit replied a little exhausted “but I must go soon” So Bandit set off drawing Froth. “ Move a little to the left so I can see your wings better” Bandit said giving “modeling” directions to Froth. < Picky, Picky you are Bandit it should be a challenge for you to draw me in that pose considering you are the best artist here. > “Just hold still or you’ll be in trouble form you’re rider tonight you know how she treats behavior problems” Bandit said a little annoyed because of froth continuous moving and flexing. Froth stood still and Bandit started to paint him. He ran his finger through his light brown hair and blinked his icy gray eyes. He grabbed at his dragon fang necklace thoughtfully. He slid his hand into his pocket and grabbed a pen to outline Froth’s eyes. <Do I look good?> froth asked Bandit after he had been working for 45 minutes now. “Yes pretty good you can move now I just need a good look at your left front foot.” He said in a sigh like voice. Froth approached him so he could get a closer look at his foot. “Hmm.. Is that a scar or a callus?” Bandit asked . “<Oh it’s a scar from my fight with that tunnel worm. I hate those things, so ugly aren’t they?> “Yep they are thanks for letting me draw you Froth. I have to go look for a place to impress a dragon now I really need one to help me get around .”Bandit said. <I know a great place to impress!> Froth said excitedly. Why don’t you go to Dark Moon Wyer? <They currently have a clutch on the sands and now are looking for candidates.> Froth said. “Okay is that where you are from” <No, but my mother was from there.> “I’ll go check it out, by froth.” Bandit said excitedly. So, I went to the wyer to see if they would accept me, to be a candidate. About a week after they accepted him to be a candidate they eggs hatched. The first one to hatch was large and dark blue . Out of it popped a small blue Hatchling. It walked over to Bandit swirled its wingtip in the sand and looked up at him hopefully. " Well do you want to eat, or not?" Bandit asked as he slid a bowl of meat over to Vehderth. The little blue smiled a dragon like smile as Bandit passed the bowl. |
