Nine months prior, D'cul's bronze Seteieth had flown Arialae's green Hugrith and Arialae had become pregnant by it. Remembering her time with Akron, she'd decided to keep in once she found out she was

It was later. The initial damage had been repaired, as much as it could be. Kassia had been taken to the Infirmary. The remaining eggs were...taken care of. The dragons weren’t letting anyone close en

While Arialae was in a mild panic over her painful labor, Vofali's couldn't be any easier. She felt her water go in the middle of drills and asked for and received permission to go to the infirmary. G

Foreth had been patched up as best could be. Kassia would live and the sires were there, plus other dragons outside to protect the Caverns. Her eggs were as safe as they were going to be without her t

After what seemed like forever Foreth finally stopped keening. The sound decreased slowly until it came to just whimpers that only those in the Caverns could hear. Finally Foreth turned to get a bette

It seemed...almost planned that Ko'ssen would run out of klah in his small office klah-pot right around the same time that his stomach rumbled, letting him know that he'd spent *much* too long in the

It had been three months since Tamalak's unexpected Impression to the tunnelwhere, Chato. The novelty for the other wherhandlers--both with and without whers--had worn off. Now he noticed that he was

It hadn't taken long for him to find the other male, not when dragons were involved at least. M'gil still was not looking too great after his stint on rations, well ok so he wasn't looking bad, but it

Bandiucth would have liked to think she was the first one to hatch, but weather she was or wasn't she was the only one on the sands right /now/ so as far as she was concerned she had to be the first o

M'gal was going to be taking some of the younger riders out on sweeps that night, so was napping during the day. That ended when the world exploded. {{Foreth. Eggs. They've been attacked,}} Ozayith cr

Things were never entirely quiet around Arolos. Whether it was political issues between having two Weyrleaders, wine being taken away after parties, attacks at the Gather, heat waves, or monsoons, the

K'el felt the explosion rock the Weyr from where he was, leaping immediately to his feet. "Storms, what was that?" He gasped. Alberith heard the dragonspeak that his rider did not, and immediately ale

Foreth tried to take stock. Hers was going to be taken care of. Now to think about the eggs. The eggs...Dread rushed through her and she carefully moved to see the eggs she'd been on, easier said than

R’tal had felt a little guilty about Shalia staying back from the trip. Not that he couldn’t use the help, not that he wasn’t delighted to still have klah magically turning up before he even thought t

There were certain Healer instincts. You ran towards trouble, always, no matter what. Even if you had a baby with you. The sound of the explosion had Cremsden on his feet, Arden still clasped in one a

((Talith, where is Yours? Mine needs to talk to him,)) Kasheth called for T’rif. The ACM had just been sent by Nayari to figure out what to do with the Candidates. For a few minutes dead silence, as t

((Mine, Mine!)) Foreth called, her head thrust as far forward as possible. She was allowing Kodah by now, but her panic was still hot in the air. She screamed when Kassia passed out. Her head swung fr

In a rare moment F'gan found Nadia sitting in the corner of the dining hall holding a cup of Klah between her hands. She looked so calm compared to her earlier years in the weyr. If he was a betting m
