Unlike the grandiose nature of the squiring ceremony each Knight undergoes upon their initial entrance into the Knighthood, the graduation to Full Knight status takes place in a much more intimate affair, between the Knight, their mentor, invited friends, and the members of the sect to which they will be inducted. There's no pompous music, no stolid rank and file, no elaborate march.

Riddick's invitees are given seats of honor at the front of the ranks of the Dragon's Hide members - the largest sect in the castle, with the most representatives here, and Fred, Wynn, and Dovan wait up at the front of the room for Riddick to approach them, but the attitude of the ceremony is much more relaxed, full of smiles and light conversation on all sides.   Deal with it, Riddick-chan.

Wynn finally gets things rolling, by saying in his loud listen-to-me voice:  "Approach and kneel, Sir Richard Riddick."

[The wry grin is back in place as Riddick turns to answer Dovon.] Oh, I swear it.

[ironsides]

Then by the power of my office, I grant thee the title of Full Knight of the Dragon's Hide! [ He moves to swat a hand hard onto Riddick's shoulder ] Rise and take your place up here, lad.

[Riddick stands quickly, the lines on his face prominent once more. He sticks his hand out to Dovan, clasping the dwarfs own for a firm shake. He does the same with Wynn, giving him the tiniest of nods in thanks before turning to face the room in general.

The smile breaks across his face now, his eyes sweeping each of his guests in acknowledgement and landing on Katniss where they stay, his grin even more pronounced than before. BE PROUD LITTLE SURROGATE SISTER!]
