Lyer Weyr is looking for new members!!!
1000 turns of freedom from thread. 1000 turns to grow and blossom. 1000 turns of idleness.
1000 turns have past since the Red Star was pushed from it's orbit leaving Pern free of its eternal enemy. With no threat of Thread the people spread out and made beautiful home through-out the planet. The dragons bred less often and became smaller. They were also left with the option of working for holders, carrying items and people, or becoming rebels and supporting themselves. Many chose to live together in 'mini-weyrs' occasionally playing the games that used to keep rider on their toes for thread.
1000 turns of no Thread had also allowed technology to expand and genes to be played with. Electricity and the telephone was invented as well as watches and a way to cut stone super fast. New colors of Dragons, Firelizards, and Whers were developed. And intelligence in the Whers and Flits was improved.
About 10 or so turns ago the queens began to rise more often and the clutches began to become larger and larger. 'Weyrleaders' and the Queenriders were unsure why this was happening, but they passed the information to Stargazers who reported seeming nothing unusual. So the rest of Pern never heard about this. Also the size of the dragons was increasing again and a new color appeared about 2 turns ago. Now with the first Topaz queen ready to raise a young Stargazer has spotted the reason for the increase of numbers and sizes. The Red Star, Pern's old enemy, has returned. About 3 months ago a dolphin reported a thread fall over the ocean. Prompting the remaining dragon's and riders to band together and found Lyer Weyr, thus named for the fact that the rest of the planet believed that the riders were lying to them about the fall, but when a fall fell over a small hold in the south, Sunset Valley Hold, and several dragons were lost due to their lack of skill in fighting thread, the entire planet turned to the riders and their mighty dragons. Sunset Falls Hold was set up to supply the new and only Weyr with food and other essentials. Also with the thread fall came complete destruction on the electrical grid. Telephone still work, but most of Pern is let in complete darkness.
The young Topaz, Avalith, rose almost a month ago and is now egg heavy. The weyr sits in an old volcano, the top of which was blown off, centuries ago, close to where AVAIS and Landing once stood, the super computer now rests in a museum somewhere in the North. Weyrs, halls, barracks, etc... were carved out using the last of the fuel on the planet and super-efficient stone cutters, much like the ones the original colonists had. Anya, Avalith's rider is left with an entire planet watching her for guidance. With the weyrleader dead, due to a small thread fall over his family, the young girl is left to make decisions, which will affect an entire planet and its fate, all on her own.
Pern's 2 remaining Golds don't see eye to eye with each other. One, Ilterith, refuses to listen to Avalith so instead of accepting her rule and command she and her rider leave the weyr to remain rebels. The other, Avalith's mother Evalith, backed down and let her daughter take over. She follows the young topaz and listens to her commands. Some holders are displeased with the fact that their fate now lies in the hands of a 16 turn-old. So they turn to the 10 turn-old Gold Magith and her 29 turn-old rider Alira for leadership. Now with Avalith about to clutch Ilterith is trying to win over dragons to join her and try to found a second weyr and win over the holders. And now with 18 eggs hardening on the sands it seems that Ilterith may have more support.
Do you have what it takes to help save Pern? Which Queen will you follow?
Avalith did clutch and it was nice sized clutch for the topaz's first. 18 eggs graced the sands and as tension built more and more people made their way to the weyr. Some seeking protection from thread and others hoping to impress to one of the eggs. Thread fell again destroying the last mini-weyr forcing more dragon pairs to Lyer. After a month Avalith allowed candidates onto her sands to touch the eggs.
A week later the humming began and everyone swarmed to the sands to watch as the eggs hatched. To everyones amazment, not only did a new color hatch out, the Tourmaline, but out of the other guarded egg came an other Topaz AND a Gold. There was another twin egg containing a Coal and an Iron. The two came out with a pop and each retreated to the shadows along the sides of the cavern, while the Topaz stalked the sands before cutting a poor green's face open and then bonding to a girl with a strong will. The bronze that was the first to hatch bonded to a calm boy. And much to everyone's surprise a Brown and then a Bronze bonded to one boy. After some arguing between the siblings they decided they could share.
A Gold wher ran soon after and laid a nice sized clutch of 12 eggs. When these hatched a gold was out first, but bonded later on. A new color hatched out of one of the eggs, the Bloodstone, she seems to be another calm color. Between the dragons and the whers a flit clutch was laid and hatched revealing a Topaz flit, as well as a new color of Tanzanite. This was after a Ruby had hatched out earlier. Also an Iron with two tails hatched and a Bronze with 4 tail tips hatched out as well.
During the gather a shop keeper was selling mysterious eggs and the race bet takers were also handing out mystery eggs. Which soon hatched to reveal the Seradons, the Ruelles, and the Faens. The new creatues seem to bond to humans much the same as firelizards.
All seemed well as Green Delzeith rose and was caught by a large Bronze male. Then she though she disappeared and no one seemed to know where she had gone. Though Anya didn't seem worried. While she and her rider were missing a member of the dolphin craft and his dolphin drug some large mystery creature from the depths of the ocean before calling the weyr to come see the creature. Though they were ordered to drag it back by the young weyrwoman. Though the damage was done, for not long after they returned it to it's watery grave most of the people that got close to it began to fall ill, including a wher and the Gold handler. Several candidates died from the illness as well as a rider and 2 wher handlers.
About a month after disappearing Green Delzeith put out a call for candidates to come touch her eggs, yes it seemed the little green had laid 12 eggs. The even dozen now lay on the sands awaiting their turn to hatch out and join the weyr. Though they may not want to for it seems some are blaming young Anya for the illness.
What we have to offer:
• 12 eggs on the sands
• New colors
• A wher just finished her run
• Topaz Avalith is starting to glow
• Tension between Avalith and the gold rebel is building
