Around that time, N'shen arrived, helping Cotai to walk in. He explained the situation as quickly as he could to the apprentice at the front. "Kassia is here, too." "Y-yes, sir, we know," the apprenti

((I hear you. I will rally what help I can,)) Elphith promised, and she nudged each of many blues she had asked to chase, though most of them were already waiting for the word to come from Ponth herse

"Oh thank Faranth!" I'des sighed, perhaps a tad more dramatically than necessary. "I was afraid I'd wander lost forever- Wingsecond I'des of bronze Sunstreath, at your service!" he chirped. "I'd offer

Raobehr was surprised when he received the approval for his expedition. It was not that he did not expect to be approved – after all, he had submitted a detailed plan for how he intended to avoid enco

"Oh. Oh!" N'shen rushed to Cotai's side to help her to stand. Three new babies, then. It was especially good that he had stayed home. And especially good he had sent marks with Bl'by for baby and mama

Truenoth turned to look in the direction where N'shen sat with his own very pregnant weyrmate. He was doubly glad then that he had decided not to risk being away from the Weyr for the Frost Fayre. "Lo

"Colder?" Rosk's eyes widened. It should not have come as such a shock, he supposed. But he always imagined Telgar as a much warmer place than High Reaches. "Brr." "Arolos has a lot to offer." Rosk re

Darrica stared at him, worried and guilty again. “I-- I don’t want you to think..” She blushed. “I mean. I really hate what he did to your mother because she-- I mean, she’s nice, Sela is. But I wasn’

Darrica smiled weakly, a little unnerved by this declaration of complete love for her son. “Have you had much experience with babies?” she asked tentatively, well-aware that they did not just cooperat

((Congratulations. I will wait to smell him until The Mother is comfortable.)) She tilted her head. It was a rare person who Elphith named like that quickly, let alone on the first meeting. ((She coul

Cuylar waited at the entrance to the Infirmary for Darrica to return. The talk with his mother had gone about as well as he could have expected. His mother gave him that look she had when she knew he

"Do you want him to know?" he asked. It would probably complicate things. Darrica thought about it, staring at the floor. “I-- I know it sounds stupid, but I don’t want to hurt Sela,” she said in a sm

If there was one thing Cuylar enjoyed about visiting the North – aside from seeing his parents, of course – it was the perfectly cool weather during the Northern summer. Especially with the unusual co

M'gal was in such a good mood he turned to the speaker and laughed. "Actually, just anyone who's listening. I love this kind of weather! I miss it, though I don't really want to move back to Telgar, e

"Ahoy there!" Macralan called happily. "Aye, I'm caught in the shoals here and my dolphin friend is trying to get me out. If you want to help, well I won't say no." "Kos dig" the dolphin informed the

Whistling, he entered the Dining Hall, and noticed many people huddled together with mugs of hot beverages. Not klah though, but he knew where he could get some. He chose not to, but he knew where it

While the mammal dug, Macralan could only wonder that no one knew where he was except his partner and a handful of wild firelizards. Very helpful. The water around him in the delta was just salty enou

"Clean-up wouldn't be so bad for them," T'ryn agreed. "Or you could send them off on Sweeps elsewhere, with some others along to supervise." "I'm content to assign him to clean-up. I'd rather not have

"Sir, am I not going to stay in your-- oh." Belatedly, Bl'by realised. He might be flying, but it was unlikely N'shen would be, not right now. He flushed. "Sorry." "Nothing to be sorry about," said N'

"Sir, if you let me back into the air, I'd-- I'd pretty much work for you any time you liked!" A little over-enthusiastic perhaps but right now Bl'by was floating on a cloud of ecstatic relief. They w
