Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chalcedony was currently out on a patrol of sorts, walking through the village of Sol, making sure that everything was appearing on the up and up. Due to his past experience that included more wars then he'd like to even think about he found himself drafted to help keep an eye out for the Dretch. He didn't care for the race, knowing full well the dangers they presented after their show of force, and he didn't want them any where near Sol. He only wished he could have summoned all of his children and made them all stay in Sol where he could keep an eye on them. At least Rajani was nearby, and Aysun visited. Now to try to smooth things out with Chandra so he would at least check in as well.

His deep thoughts were interrupted as something ran into his leg, something small, and instantly he was turning to see who or what it was. Much to his surprise it wasn't any sort of small animal but instead a little youngling that looked that much smaller compared to Chal himself. Turning around he took a knee so as to appear smaller to her, offered a hand, and asked, "Are you alright, little one? You didn't get hurt in your fall, did you?"

Chal gave a smile, glad to hear that she was doing well and hadn't gotten hurt in her fall. The girl took the hand that he offered her but didn't seem to be in a rush to get up or let him go, instead seeming to be starring at him. It was something that caused him to give a little chuckle, amused by the reaction, "It's quite alright. So long as you're okay."

Lifting his gaze he found himself face to face with what he'd assume was the girl's father given the way he was acting. Giving the man a smile he said, "It's quite alright. I know how a child can be when it comes to their pets, one of my sons has an army of beasts." Something that made him chuckle at the thought. Aysun was a grown man and he still got childishly excited over new beasts just as this little youngling had gotten.

Looking back to the girl with the interesting eyes he asked, "What sort of beast are you thinking of getting?"

Giving a chuckle he said, "Yeah, a whole army of various creatures from all over." It was something that worried him when Aysun was younger, not wanting his son getting eaten by his own pets. He was more confident in his skills these days since he was still going, "He's even planning a trip to get a rare bird from Zena soon from what he's told me." Though he wasn't sure he liked the idea of him traveling that far, even if he was planning the trip with others as well as planning on bringing some of his beasts with him.

"The biggest one they have?" Something that made him laugh, "Sounds like something my son would say. If you mean the ones here in Jauhar I think the biggest you can get is a radaku. I got a radaku pup myself recently and I can say they are quite loyal."

Looking at her father he said, "Good luck." He couldn't help but to wonder if the girl would end up buried in familiars. Something he could only wish the man luck with if it happened.

Chalcedony gave a thoughtful sound before he said, "I can't say. There are some merchants that carry exotic beasts but I don't know what they have in stock at any given time. That would be more something my son would know." He thought on it before he said, "I know he has a serpent that comes from Yael... though I think those are beasts that are meant for more experienced trainers." They were big, they liked to squeeze, and he was pretty sure they were venomous. Not something for a child if you asked him... though since she wasn't his child he supposed it would be up to her parents.

"A fun one to consider would be a nondwa. Those can cover you with a lot of glitter since they are covered in the stuff." He suggested, wanting to help her father out if he could when it came the girl's first choice of beast.

"Ohhh, a beast tamer? That is an interesting path to take. My son ended up as a rider himself, well one of my sons. The other is a magic user, while my daughter is off swinging a hammer about." Something that made him chuckle a bit. How different the lot of them were from one another.

Giving a smile he looked over at the girl's father, giving him a little thumbs up when the girl showed interest in the extremely harmless and glitter covered nondwa before he turned his attention back to her again as she made grabby motions at him. Giving a smile he said, "I wouldn't want to intrude on your family outing, little one." He wouldn't want to get under foot when the girl's father was likely wanting to bring her to get the pet on his own, as a family bonding sort of thing.

Chalcedony gave a bit of a chuckle before he said, "Well, what else are children for other then trying to spoil them? At least when they are of the age when they want to be spoiled." When they got older it became something that was more difficult at times, especially with Chandra. He somehow doubted the boy would accept a lot in the way of spoiling these days, at least from Chal that was.

Giving a little smile he said, "Well, hammers are a bit like Yaeli serpents in that one has to be a bit older to get them." He said, hoping to save the man from the whole hammer thing since he'd been the one to bring it up. He'd done well in suggesting the nondwa then ended up instantly messing up via bringing up hammers which the girl seemed to also be interested in.

After looking between the two of them he turned to the girl and asked, "Any idea what color nondwa you might want? I hear they come in a rainbow of colors."

"That would be a rather neat nondwa I bet." He said, giving a smile as the girl turned her attention to the nondwa again. It was good to hear that her attention was back on something that she might actually be able to get while she was little. Well... one never knew what her family might allow but if it was him he'd allow a child her age a nondwa or a small, baby beast, but nothing dangerous. There was enough danger out there he thought to himself.

As she mentioned liking the color Chal gave a soft laugh, "It is a good color. A shame that my son isn't around today, I'm sure he could show you right where to get a nondwa that color. Hopefully those in town that sell familiars will have in stock that is the right color." He wasn't really certain though how one went about catching nondwa and taming them, nor was he sure how many of them a salesman might have on hand at any one time. Here was to hoping they would have the 'right' color as far as the little youngling was concerned.
