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 hallways were quiet that evening as Davkir made his way back toward the room he'd occupied for a few weeks since being Searched. As usual, he had finished his meager meal quickly and slipped back to the candidate barracks in the hopes of avoiding awkward run-ins with the other candidates.

It wasn't that he disliked any of them in particular, it was that he felt so incredibly isolated from the rest of them. Most of them had been in training for quite some time now, in a strict regimen of physical training and chore lists that shaped their days. He spent most of his time in the infirmary performing the duties he'd taken up upon arriving at Vaioa. Since being Searched, he'd moved to the barracks, but with the exception of a few more hours of chores added to his day, his schedule hadn't changed much and left him little time to get familiar with any of his peers.

Wavi chittered excitedly, dipping through the doorway into the hall Davkir now traversed in the direction of his room. The spotted blue projected images of his day full of mischief with the rest of the Weyr's firelizard population, causing the boy to laugh. Beckoning the blue to settle down on his shoulder, Dav rewarded the amusing tale with a showering of affectionate scritchings that had Wavi melting into a puddle of contented purring within moments.

It was during such distraction that he lost track of time, petting his flitt in the hallway some distance still from his room, when soon the kitchens would begin to empty and the other candidates would soon start to filter back for the night.

Karen entered the Barracks with her usual bouncy gait. Being Searched had been exciting and being a candidate was so much better than being a Weaver. Boy, was she glad that she'd gotten out of there! So what if it was a reliable source of income? It was also bo-o-oring and there were few things Karen hated more than being bored! Though the chores of candidacy were monotonous, Karen felt a constant sense of excitement that allowed her to keep going even when she was bored of scrubbing pots in the kitchen or mining firestone from the pits. There was a clutch on the sands, and she just knew she was going to Impress! What happened next? Karen didn't know. She didn't want to try to plan that far ahead. Nevermind the hard work and the life-risking ventures of Threadfall. This was all a great adventure, and that's why it was so exciting! Even worth putting through days and days of chores. The clutch would hatch soon, she just had to hold out a little longer.

As she walked through the main common room, headed for the corridor at the back that would take her to her room, a movement down one of the boys's corridors caught her eye and she turned, greatly interested. Beneath one of the glows, a candidate was standing-- and perched on his arm was a nice blue firelizard! Karen grinned. She'd seen firelizards from afar since arriving here but never up close, and they fascinated her, not only because back home they were such a status symbol but because they were almost dragons, sort of. She stepped forward, moving toward the boy. "Excuse me? Er, hi, sorry I don't know you! But do you mind if I look at your firelizard? My name's Karen," she said eagerly.

Wavi burbled and nuzzled Dav's cheek, then suddenly looked around and down the hall. An image of a dark-haired girl floated into Davkir's mind and he glanced over his shoulder to see. Oh shells, she was walking toward him. His eyes widened and he briefly tensed, but quickly got control of his instinct to turn and run that had been burned so deeply into him from his days alone in the desert avoiding bandits.

It was with some effort that he turned to face the girl as she came up to him, and he even managed a shy smile, his eyes dropping down to stare at his feet when she spoke.

"H...hi. M-m-my name i-is Davkir," he blushed a little and looked up at her when she asked about his flitt. "This i-is W...Wavi." He held out his arm and the little blue walked down it to coil his tail around the boy's wrist, promptly beginning to preen his claws and wings. "He l...likes n-n-new people, p-pet his eye r...ridge. He r-really likes th...that."

Dav smiled brightly as Wavi chirruped curiously at Karen, cocking his little head and nosing at her hands. He projected feelings of happy welcome in all directions, his eyes whirling swiftly with shades of blue-green and his wings giving an excited flutter.

"Hiya, Davkir! Wow! Wavi? He's so pretty!" Karen's enthusiasm was obvious. Her eyes gleamed in excitement as he extended his arm and the blue approached her.

Her mouth opened into a small 'o' at his words. "I can touch him? Wow!" Gingerly she began rubbing the little ridge over his eyes. "Wow!" She said again, beaming. "I thought maybe they wouldn't like people!" She beamed as Wavi's feelings og happiness washed over her, though her eyes widened in surprise. "Faranth! Firelizards really are amazing! How'd you get him?"

Wavi burbled and twittered happily, soaking in the attention like the spoiled brat he was.

Davkir's stutter seemed to ease a little as he relaxed, the girl really did seem harmless and she was gentle with Wavi. That made him a bit more comfortable with her nearness.

"I f-found his clutch o...on the riverb-bank. A wherry or wher musta g-got at it, most of the eggs were e...eaten. B-but I found Wavi here u...under some shells and bodies. H-his wing was hurt and his t-t-tail too, so I fixed him up and he stuck w-with me," he grinned as he told the tale and Wavi added his little chirping comments throughout, wiggling his wings playfully and rubbing up against Karen's hand enthusiastically.

"S-so how did you get Searched?" He had begun moving toward the commons area, and when they got there he would find a seat, to not make the girl stand around in the boy's hallway.

"Oh..." Karen grinned brightly. "That's an incredible story! It sounds like a fun adventure but I'd never have been allowed to go out by the river." She smiled wistfully. "I'm originally from Keroon, but my father is a vintner, so the most I was ever allowed was to go in the vineyard."

She gave Wavi one last skritch and followed Davkir into the common area, picking a seat. At his next question her smile faltered slightly. She knew very much how she was searched, but she didn't need Kari to tell her that announcing she'd slept with the ex-Weyrleader was a bad idea. She cleared her throat gently.

"Um... Well, I happened to be talking to the Weyrleader at the Turn's End gather," she said, and her smile returned. That wasn't a lie; she had talked to O'zen at the Gather. She wondered if this new friend Davkir would think poorly of her if she told the whole truth and decided it was not worth the risk. "My cousin and I had just arrived at Vaioa Hold to apprentice at the Weaverhall. We were at the Gather, minding the stall all day. Well, I took a break to get some food and ran into this rider, who I later found out was the Weyrleader. And... his dragon searched me." She beamed at Davkir. Well it wasn't quite the whole story but she wasn't lying either-- she just was leaving certain parts out. Like the fact that she'd been nearly naked when she'd met the Weyrleader's dragon.

She bit her lip and then said, "How about you?"
