Bean smiled sheepishly at the praise, and he looked gratefully at Asta when she announced that she would be taking first watch. "I'll take the next watch then, so wake me up when it's time to swap."
Just then Calder's dragon returned with the net full of fish. "I've been looking forward to a good meal all afternoon. Here, let me prepare those."
As he gathered the net he remarked: "I've never seen a dragon trained to catch fish with a net before. How did you manage that?"
By the time Bean had the fish cleaned and arranged neatly on sticks, Alana announced that the fire was ready to take them.
Bean set the first round carefully over the flames, close enough to char the skin, but still leave the meat moist and tender.
"The stories of the gods were always my favourite." Bean admitted over the cheerful crackle of the fire. "And they always seemed to go over well with the traders that came to our island."
He tested the first of the fish to check of they were done and then began handing them out, setting them on a series of flat stone had picked up at the beach to serve as plates.
"Careful, they'll be very hot inside."
Grub, very surprisingly, stayed by his new companion rather than go to beg more fish from his trainer.
"I think he really likes Pep." Bean observed with a smile at his dragon. "He doesn't normally take such a liking to other dragons..."
