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.

“Cliff no,” Nairo waved a hand at the autumn-colored fire lizard, shooing him away from the riding straps he was currently repairing. Chores had proven to be a pleasant distraction from the unbearable excitement that had fallen upon the Weyr. Lisenyth’s massive clutch and the precious queen egg it contained were all anyone wanted to talk about. It was all he could think about. So doing things like repairing spare riding straps and clothes soothed his jittery nerves. Thirty-three eggs and almost twice as many candidates. Did he really stand a chance?

“Here you go, lad.”A bluerider set down another heavy set of riding straps on the table, smiling knowingly down at him. Nairo wondered if his anxiousness was written all over his face or if the rider simply understood what he, as a candidate, must be feeling right now. He suspected the latter – the young man liked to think he wasn’t so easy to read. “Thank you kindly for doing this, I’m too busy with drills and Search to repair straps lately.”

More candidates? He wanted to protest. Surely twice as many candidates as eggs was enough? Did they really need such a huge selection? He mumbled something respectful down at the leathers in his hands and tried to focus on stitching. Cliff crawled onto his shoulder and wrapped his tail around his master’s neck. Nairo welcomed the comfort he offered. As much as he loved the Weyr already, the prospect of sharing the sands with so many candidates was daunting.

The rider gave his shoulder a reassuring pat. “You’ll do fine, lad. There will be plenty of clutches where this one came from with Thread on the horizon. All the queens of Pern will start rising more often and laying more eggs than usual. Your dragon will find you eventually. I’ll be back for those straps later.” He left on the heels of his words, leaving Nairo behind to seethe in mixed feelings. The thought of Thread was terrifying. But more chances to stand? How could he not be excited at the thought?

Maylina had just finished up her chores for the day. Laundry duty wasn't so bad. She knew how to do it, and even if her hands did get red from the hot water, it was better than running several dragonlengths like they had to do in the lesson the other day. Now that she was done, she was planning to spend some time exploring the lower caverns, maybe meeting some new people.

She hummed to herself as she walked down the hall. The young woman was in a good mood, completely untouched by the nervousness that affected some of the other candidates. Standing as a candidate was like a game for her, and it didn't matter if she won or lost.

Speaking of her fellow candidates...there was one right there, working on a pile of riding straps. He was one of the newer candidates, and she couldn't quite remember his name, but he was a Weaver. Maylina had some marks left from the Hold, and she could use a new dress for the Hatching feast.

"Do you take requests?" she asked the boy, sauntering up to his table.

Nairo had a dazzling smile ready for the rather striking woman that approached his table next. She was more than easy on the eyes and, to be honest, he could use a bit of a break from riding straps. Most riders were expected to maintain their own straps but there were a fair amount that were too busy or too lazy to manage, and candidates were free labor. But this girl didn’t bear shoulder straps of rank, which meant she was either weyrfolk or a candidate. He guessed the latter.

“Do you take requests?”

Cliff slipped off his shoulder and crawled down his rider’s side into his lap, away from this stranger. She wasn’t threatening but the little brown didn’t trust new people at all. Nairo stroked his folded wings gently and silently marveled at the softness of his hide as he did every time he touched the fire lizard. Cliff leaned into his master’s caressing fingers as Nairo responded.

“That depends entirely on the request, my lady. What did you have in mind? Something fancy? Something practical?”
