Pern - Southern Weyr
Discord || Forums
The 9th Pass came and went with the hope, the need for AVIAS to work. We thought it did, when that last fateful day at the end of the 9th Pass and Thread did not fall. Southern has tried to hang on, reformed and rejoined the world, but the past is hard to forget. Harper's songs are hard to ignore, and History written in the scrolls remind all the Role Southern has played since its formation. Even now, as the 9th interval drags out, the dragon men and women are all but transporters, guards and tradesmen. It wasn't a hard life, but it wasn't a rich life either. Not that dragon riders were, but they had their great beasts and fought Thread valiantly.
In Southern Weyr, life was easy, and it even turned into more of a 'resort' than a true Weyr. People came to visit, to stay for a period of time, and then they'd leave. Southern Hold entertaining those escaping the Winters in the North for the hot and fruitful Summers. The Hold grew more than the Weyr did. Southern's Golds rarely rose, there was no need for them to, despite a glowing red star in the sky seeming to loom nearer and nearer.
As Southern's last Queen went between, no one knows why her rider suddenly fell ill and into a coma. Later on, she quietly passed. An autopsy explained nothing, and one of the Healer's atop his dragon took her between. Igen held a close relationship with Southern, with many of their riders and people taking trips there. With a Gold gifted to Southern, they had a means to survive and live on as they wished not to abandon their home and join other Weyrs. In less than a Turn this queen rose, and now she's given Southern a gift they haven't seen grace their sands in over 50 turns, A Gold Egg.
A gold, a welcome distraction as the Red Star begins to fall into alignment with the Star Stones. Yet no one seems to notice, no one has practiced in such a long time that it has gone unseen. Yet a few have been paying attention, a few plead with the Weyrs... But will their voices be Heard in time...
