I'm alright. Tell me if they intend to execute you, and I will take you away from this place as soon as possible"
Miri? You can talk to me from miles away?
"I can hear your thoughts and you can hear mine. It's the ability of a dragon rider, which is what Elves calls you now. But for my kind, we call you linkers."
Linkers?
"A human soul who can link between worlds. Your passion for reptiles is what I believe makes you an innate dragon linker. As soon as I had your blood, we started a pact to bind us together."
I should be careful about what I think. I have no more privacy...
"A little price to pay to command a dragon."
What about our bodies?
"No. Only our mind and soul are connected. I won't feel your pain but if you die, I die too."
I understand the connections clearly.
"Your age does well to you. You have the maturity and good perception to be a good Dragon Rider."
Stop reminding me that I'm old!
