Kashara smoothed down her dress as she stopped in front of the weyr door. The dress wasn’t Gather fancy, but she was definitely dressed up. Not that it took much compared to the Candidate uniform she

Kashara smiled at her friend. "I Impressed Rusalth. Congratulations on your beautiful gold. I look forward to getting to know her."

Lorithi held out her hand for the papers and was reading them as they walked to the exam room, “Ok, so looks like your entire right side? Let’s take a look, please. You have cream to keep the scarring

It had only been a short nap, maybe thirty minutes or so, when Mendl awoke again. Nimoth was still sleeping. Mendl tested their bond, and got the impression Nimoth would stay asleep. She hoped she was

(( There! There you are! My Trifali, you shall share this with me! Share the delight of what I have done, feel the energy that surges within me! Yes, we shall hunt together and it will be WONDROUS! ))

The hatching, horrid and wonderful. Tonight had been about lives changed, lives saved, and lives lost. All things that a healer was supposed to be able to handle. But tonight had been more than Alyx h

The Hatching had been eventful to say the least. Ambrelli couldn’t remember a Hatching with a mauling as gruesome as this one, the young boy’s death terrible to watch. And two girls being mauled as we

There were Hatchlings...not everywhere. Each color caught her eye, whether bronze, brown, blue or green, they all had their strengths and would be beneficial for the Weyr. She honored that fact by exa

At the breakfast as Rennitz ate, she made sure to spoil her two firelizards with their favored foods and gave them more whenever they asked whie she herself ate. The girl watched with tender and also

Mendl itched to go to the other Hatching Cavern, but Foreth had insisted she be up here. On the one hand, she was chuffed that Foreth thought she was worthy of one of her golden daughters. On the othe

Warning: abuse If Garatt was being honest, it was maybe the best time he’d had in sevendays. The Barracks was quiet, everyone else had gone to the Hatching. There was only him -- oh, and Asheran’s fir

OOC: Night of explosion Of the Candidates brought back to the Weyr after the Caverns, only Kassia’s family was among them. Kashara was left feeling alone even among her family. She wanted to talk to K

Asheran had made it onto the Sands. He had pushed his way to the center of the group as best he could, keeping his head down, throwing conspiratorially glances toward Lerian, Ronhim and Luicion, who h

After M’gal left, Kassia was left with her own thoughts again. She kept replaying the images that the dragons had shared with her in her head. Somehow the whole thing felt surreal because she couldn’t

Near Truenoth, the Stoic Pebble egg had been sitting unassuming and likely overlooked as first one crack appeared in its surface and then another. More and more cracks rippled through the hardened egg

Getting Basilith to the wallows after feeding time had been an ordeal. The willful blue had wanted nothing more than to plop down asleep where he was after eating and Rennitz had to work hard to convi
