(Kalarina and Arianna)
Aria grinned and quickly put the last bit of her packing she was holding down on the bed. Stepping outside with Kalarina she shut her door and stood there waiting quietly. This was going to be interesting, of that she was positive.

[glow=red,2,300](Yaren)[/glow]
Yaren was going over yet more paperwork when the bell went off. Setting down what he'd been working on he made sure everything was organized neatly and then set off for the pages wing.

Reaching the pages wing he nodded in satisfaction to see the first years already standing outside their doors and the rest standing around waiting. He walked up to the first of the first years, which turned out to be Arianna, "Name and Fief."

(Yaren and Arianna)
Arianna kept her face serene and managed to not jump at the training masters abrupt command. "Arianna, Sir. Of Olau." She said in a crisp manner.

Yaren nodded and turned to face the older pages gathered behind him. Briskly, "Who will sponsor Olau?"
Kalarina promtly stepped forward smiling, "I'll sponsor her sir."
Yaren frowned briefly, he usually prefered the third year pages as sponsors but decided not to make an issue of it. "Alright Amelien."
Kalarina moved to stand beside Arianna grinning at the younger girl while Yaren moved on down the line.

(Arianna and Kalarina)
Aria waited till the training master turned away then returned the grin, now she was doubly glad she had left her room door open as she got settled in.

[glow=red,2,300](Yaren and Loralin)[/glow]
Yaren continued to move slowly down the line of first years. Eventually he reached the still bouncingLoralin. Briskly, "Name and fief."
Not at all daunted by him she said smartly, "Loralin of Mindelan, sir."
The training master glanced around at the remaing senior pages, "Who will sponsor Mindelan?"

(Yaren, Loralin, and Boram)
Boram waited a minute, then cleared his throat as he stepped forward. "I will, sir," he said gruffly. He refused the urge to shuffle his feet as he waited for the training master's response.

Yaren was rather surprised when Boram spoke up to sponsor Loralin but covered it quickly. Nodding his approval he continued on down the line.
Loralin cocked her head and glanced up...and up at Boram. Grinning she chirped, "Hi I'm Loralin. What's your name? What fief are you from. Have you been here long?" She practically bubbled with engery as she waited for her sponsor's reply.

(Loralin and Boram)
Boram raised an eyebrow at the -well, REALLY small- girl's stream of questions. Out of the side of his mouth, he said quietly, "Boram of Yanholm, 3rd year." His face was calm and quite serious, but underneath he was asking himself, "Why did I volunteer to sponser her? with that kind of energy and probably as chatty as any womanfolk, she was going to get him into all kinds of trouble, perhaps even ruin his chances at knighthood! No, he decided, he would not let that happen. He stiffened his resolved- he would make sure his charge would stay OUT of trouble, however that what necessary. He sighed to himself.

Loralin was slightly disconerted by his very brief reply but didn't let it faze her for long. Bouncing on her toes, "So now what happens? Do we go eat or to lessens or what?" Taking a deep breath, "I'm so excited about actually being here. I had to beg for a loooong time to convince my parents that I could do this." Grinning, "But it was worth it cause now I'm here and I get to train hard and become a Knight."

Boram sighed, but kept his face stoic as he, unlike her, stood perfectly still and calm. A solicitous page was never distracting or drew attention to himself... Loralin was going to need to learn this, but that was something to tell her later, when sponsering had all been decided, and Yaren was looking at another new page at the moment. So quietly he added now, as an admonition, "Knights don't beg." He tried to look as stern as Yaren.

Loralin rolled her eyes at his rather stiff reply. "Ok so maybe that was a poor choice of word. How about we call it long-term negotitions." She was rather put out that her sponsor didn't seem to be very much fun. Well maybe he's just nervous and will lighten up later.
Loralin craned her neck to see what the training master was doing and saw he'd stopped at another new page some ways down the hall. The delicate looking 10 year-old was practically squirming with delight at being here and wasn't making any effort at all to hide her eagerness.

Geof arrived late to the hall as usual. He filed in with the older pages, and waited.

Colan stood in the hall with the other pages, despite his racing heart he kept a cool composition, his eyes focused at the training master down the hall. He watched as one older page sponsored a girl. Colan smiled, he always respected females that tried for knighthood he knew that one of his ancestors had befriended a female knight. He had always read about the female hero's of the realm and took their examples. As the training master drew closer Colan folded his hands behind his back his fingers lightly crossed that he made a good impression. Colan stood still determined that he would be the greatest of all the Queenscove knights. [hey everyone sorry I've jumped in late hope you don't mind ]
