Walkabout

Riggy, a newly minted Guide, agrees to guide Sevin, a strangely innocent young man, on a spring walkabout through the forests of Ushban, a small moonlet at the edge of colonized space. When a pair of oddly marked dragons begin to stalk them, Riggy must get them safely to a station while protecting her client from the creatures and Sevin's ignorance of the dangers of a wilderness.
