Richie knew his mother liked dragons, or at least he remembered that was when he was growing up. From his first memories he had he could recall telling her about his dreams and riding them, and she would tell him about the dragon riders and their dragons that had used to live in the weyr. When Jake had first taken him out there it had been the best ride of his life. Until later.
And when he'd tried to hatch a 'dragon egg' from a chicken egg he'd hidden in his father's lab and tried to change, she had consoled him and explained how dragon eggs were so very rare, and that none had been found on the Island, but one day, if he wished and dreamed hard enough he might find one.
If only they'd known...
But now they did, or at least he did, and his Mom was the one person he knew who might actually be excited about meeting Saphira, because she knew just how much he'd always wanted a dragon growing up, and how it had been his dream. He smiled to himself as he walked into the living room, crossing over to where his mother was sitting, waiting for him, on the lounge.
"You ready?"
He'd told her he had a surprise for her, as he'd asked his father to say nothing about Saphira, that he wanted to introduce his mother to her himself. And now he was about to. Saphira was waiting up on the roof and Richie saw the scarf he'd asked his mother to bring sitting in her lap.
