As these things often did, the strange gathering tilted towards a stranger purpose, a new direction, where the outcome was not clear and the end goal was not entirely certain. Amaris had seen these gatherings before, she had gone through the motions and witnessed others take the 'prize' - never had she won the prize herself, and whenever she had ever actually wanted to win it, it had been for the sake of the creature inside, and so seeing it at least be released to a loving, suitable home was usually consolation enough for the dragonmare.
The peculiar creature said his part and gave them all a choice. There's always a choice, she thought idly, and no matter what everyone else chooses, the egg itself has no choice.
Amaris knew this was how it happened, but it still left a bitter taste on her tongue. She was not the companion advocate that her former Gladiator claimed to be, but she always prayed for the little creatures within those eggs, that they would go to where they were meant to be, and find the soul they were born to bond with.
She supposed most every creature who was able to bond with a creature of Helovia had something of a choice - they could choose not to bond (couldn't they?). The dragonmare didn't want to think on it - she didn't really want to be here, making a choice for a companion not even hatched, but she could hardly abandon the task now - she had to see it through, to ensure the egg made it safely in the possession of someone at least.
But who?
Golden eyes looked to every other who had arrived. Who was to say whether they were worthy or not?
Finally she settled upon the rodent, their presenter. She supposed he would be the one to decide.
With a sigh, she spoke softly, but clearly, not using any particular method to make her decision, aside from the simple fact that she could see an egg before her (and while she knew that not everything was what it seemed, it was the theory she was running with at the moment).
"The egg."

No need to mirror my post length - I have a horrible case of the rambly writer syndrome!
I like being tagged!
You are always welcome to 'try' and use force/magic on Amaris, but similar to spar posts, leave it to me to decide how the damage is taken please~
