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.

The month of hard work since coming to the Weyr had finally paid off. Nairo stared down at the bowl of desert warmed sand with a huge grin on his face. It was what lay inside the bowl that was the source of his elation; a large, mottled fire lizard egg was partially buried in it. It was healthy, his client had assured him, and likely to hatch within the day.

There was precious little time for practicing his craft between exercise, chores, and candidate lessons, but Nairo had completed a few projects since coming to Vaioa. The most recent was from a visitor from Vaioa hold who had made him a deal the candidate could not resist. If he could finish the dress within the week to the holder’s satisfaction, he’d be paid with a fire lizard egg rather than marks. Any longer and it would hatch and he’d have to settle for a mark or two instead.

Had it been worth it? Shards yes! He could spend all his marks in one afternoon, but a fire lizard was a life-long companion. Cliff had been his closest friend since…well, since he was six turns old. The brown was his assistant and constant companion. Nairo had jumped at the chance to Impress another one of the amazing little creatures to keep him company. Because no matter how many eggs there were on the sands right now, there was a large chance that he would be left standing a few times at least. Especially with more than twice as many candidates as there were eggs.

Cliff led the way back to their room, singing cheerily. A pouch of meat scraps Nairo had procured from the kitchen dangled from his claws. There was the promise of treats and a hatching in his future! The little brown couldn’t be happier if he tried. He blinked between rather than wait for his master to open the door, and then perched on Nairo’s bed, pulling at the satchel with his front claws to get at the meat inside.

“No no, not yet,” Nairo chided him softly as he let himself in. “Soon though.” The candidate ignored Cliff’s creel of protest and stretched out on his belly to gaze fatuously at the egg. He’d been too young when Cliff had hatched to clearly remember the event. His egg had been a gift from his parents and Cliff had just…always been there for him. Some of his earliest memories involved the brown but the moment of hatching itself was so hazy he couldn’t picture it at all in his head. Nairo dozed comfortably while he waited, confident that Cliff would wake him up if the egg started to hatch.

Many hours into the evening, it was the first sharp crack that woke both him and his fire lizard. The egg had been wobbling quietly for a good half hour, unnoticed by the sleeping pair. Now, it made a spectacle of itself, popping and cracking and sending Nairo scrambling frantically for his pouch of meat. And not a moment too soon: a brown head, speckled in bronze emerged from the egg. The hatchling creeled and scrambled quickly out of his prison towards the meat Nairo offered. If the brown-haired candidate had been expecting some explosion of emotion or love at the moment of Impression, he was mistaken. There was only a quiet, tentative affection, with the feeling that he was being offered the baby’s complete trust. In minutes, the stuffed creature lay sleeping in his lap, Cliff was devouring what was left of the meat, and Nairo was wondering just what color fire lizard he’d Impressed.

The infant was equal parts rusty brown and bronze, though the bronze seemed to be speckled and striped atop the reddish-brown. There was no way to tell his rank at this stage in his life. He stroked it’s folded wings, marveling at how tiny it was, and murmured, “I don’t care what color you are. You’re mine now.” A name could come later when the fire lizard was awake. For now, Nairo was content to cuddle his new companion and look forward to the future that stretched out before them.
