Welcome to Vaioa,

a desert triumvirate of Hold, Weyr, and Mine. Thread's return and bandit raiding brought strife between weyr and hold, but the bandits' recent defeat has returned the region to an uneasy peace. Now, a shipwreck on a forgotten continent and the decision to settle this rediscovered land has opened up a world of opportunity to Vaioa, if only they can handle the dangers.

Hi everyone! So, in general I just have to say "THREAD WITH MY CHILLINS. THEY NEED FRIENS". But really, I have a specific request that I guess could be site-wide and takes very little from all of you!

You see, my newest character, Yarrow, is a failed apprentice harper. She's been living in the weyr for about a year now, so if your character is a native they've probably seen her. But more than that, they've probably heard one or two of her...ahem...ballads. She has one ballad that she wrote about five months after arriving that is as terrible as it is genuine. It is called "Threadfall". To give you an idea, the uncut version of Threadfall takes an hour to perform.

What I would like from you, my friends, is to have this ballad be semi-common knowledge. Harpers would know about it, dragonriders would probably have heard of it. It's sort of like the "My Immortal" of Vaioa. But Yarrow is just thrilled that it's so well-known, so if a character brought it up to her, she'd be like "Yes, I DID write Threadfall!" (though she's too modest to throw it out there herself, certainly.)

I will leave you with a sample of it, but feel free to elaborate on its awfulness.


Threadfall, threadfall
Best you get a shawl
Best you learn to crawl
'Specially if you're tall

Guard the weyr and guard the
Hold
It's okay if food gets cold
Because you won't be killed
By Threadfall

Brave dragons ride high
Their time to flame Threadfall is nigh
Bronze and brown sure try
To keep up with blues in the sky

Threafall, threadfall
Always heed the call
Get behind a wall
'Specially if you're tall


And it goes on like this. I'll probably be keeping a thread open for Yarrow's terrible ballads, just cause.
