Weyr Life Drabbles: Prompt word #5: "Last"

Fassinth twists his greying muzzle around, facing downwind, and belches out his first flame of the day.  We're ready for this; we've been ready for the last fifty turns.  The firestone sacks sit easily across his brown neck.  I don't know why they thought firestone duty would be an easy job for us; he can fly as well as ever, but I certainly wouldn't put the same confidence in my own arms.  Hearing my thought, he rumbles a laugh.

Still, we're flying.  Dragonmen MUST fly, when Thread is in the sky.

Just this one last time.

Then we can rest.
