She found herself... wanting when it came to the other candidates at High Reaches. Carthusia thought herself exceptional and had yet to find anyone worthy of her utmost attention. There were a great many glorious dragons and of the golds, Galdeneth was her favorite. The moonstone and charoite dragons were coveted in her heart of hearts. Yes, High Reaches was where she was meant to be.
Unfortunately, she still hadn't met her beloved golden goddess or mystifying unique and indescribably amazing creature. But no matter. She had time.
With a huff and her chores finished, Carthusia started making her way back to the barracks. She could read or maybe freshen up? There were some girls around that caught her eye but no one quite scratched that itch yet.

Being a candidate truly was a horrid bore. Nayru hadn't had to scrub nearly so many plates when she'd been a Harper apprentice. And despite the fact that most of her fellow candidates couldn't hope to sing anywhere near as well as she could, no one was falling over themselves to give her praise over her wonderful voice. And no dragon had clutched at High Reaches in ages, either, which meant that she was stuck twiddling her thumbs while her younger sisters got to gallivant around having grand adventures as dragonriders. It was so infuriating! The only good thing about all the scrubbing she had to do was that she could take it out on plates instead of snapping at everyone who came into her line of sight.
Which was good, because the next person she saw happened to be one of the cute girl candidates. Nayru had seen her around for a while now, but with everything that had been going on, she hadn't really had a chance to say hello. She took a moment to make sure she looked acceptable - not easy when she'd been scrubbing dishes, but at least she could be sure there weren't water stains in embarrassing places - and then approached the other woman.
"Hi there," she said, trying to lay on as much of the charm as she could. "I don't think we've officially met yet, have we? I'm Nayru. You're Carthusia, right?" She knew she was right, she made a point of remembering cute girl's names. "I know you've been here for a while now, but I don't think it hurts to check in on a fellow candidate every now an again, don't you?"

The blonde cleared her throat in a stately manner (no, she wasn't startled, what made you think that?) and absently brushed a lock of hair behind her ear. "Yes, it is I! And I've seen you around too. I'm sorry I haven't been able to properly meet you. They have us working so hard around here..."
And for what? No eggs at all!
"It's pitiable, isn't it?" she opined. "We're stuck here with... with scrubbing and dishes and duty-work. How do you make it through?" Carey herself was becoming quite restless though she tried to keep that part of her under wraps lest the candidatemaster catch wind of it. Or worse yet, any potential dragons!
