"That's… not something you see every day. Bonding with a drake is no easy feat."
Her gaze shifted to Kai, analyzing but not judgmental. "You're not from any noble house, are you?"
Kai tilted his head slightly then shook his head.
She chuckled softly.
"I'm Viviane Althrael. Student Council President."
Kai gave a short nod. "Kai."
"Riven," the green-haired boy added, flashing his usual half-lazy grin.
"Corrin," the silver-haired one said flatly, but gave a respectful dip of his head.
Viviane nodded, her expression pleased but unreadable.
She turned and walked back toward her beasts, gently patting the side of her Wind Roc and whispering something under her breath.
One by one, the majestic creatures dissolved into fragments of light.
Corrin stepped forward, arms crossed, and eyed Stromoen carefully. "...Isn't he that little draklet?"
Kai turned slightly and nodded once. "Yeah. He's him."
Riven blinked, then swung around to grab Kai's shoulders with both hands.
