Albert Fallon
Too quiet.
Why was it always too quiet when something was about to happen? The calm before the storm.. nervous energy. It was spread all across the city despite the revelry brought by the meteor shower. Albert wondered if his partner could feel it, too. The wyvern was more fine tuned to these things, she must feel it. She did seem uneasy.
Albert placed his hand on Meru's blue scaled head, trying to reassure her. Her amber eyes shimmered in the fire light as she looked at him. He smiled slightly and was about to speak, but was interrupted.
"The King wishes to speak with you."
Summons from the king? What an honor! Still, Albert didn't like the stillness in the air. It became more apparent the closer he got to the castle. That being said, at least he got to ride along beside one of the more... interesting senior riders. Morrigan was no nonsense. She always wore a serious expression whenever he saw her. Oh, but she was beautiful. Especially under the pale moonlight that seemed to make her glow. It caught on every strand of her raven black hair as it flowed in the wind. Her usually hard eyes were softened in the iridescence and she was simply luminescent. It was difficult for him to take his eyes off her.
Meru, on the other hand, had other ideas. She jerked suddenly, causing Albert to have to refocus himself. He decided it would probably be best to keep himself from drifting off again. They alighted on the king's balcony, and he was there to greet them.
"Y-yes! Your magesty, I am Albert. How may I serve you?"
