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.

"Where in the flaming /between/ am I?"

Resha was standing alone in an empty hallway she believed to be .... somewhere in Vaoia Weyr. Clenching and unclenching her fists at her sides, the tall young woman turned her head to the left and right, staring down to equally deserted long hallways.

She was certain this was the way one of the drudges had told her that her quarters would be. Why, oh, why hadn't she just accepted the offer for the tour? Her sense of direction wasn't bad but here in place with so many cubbyholes and hiding spots, Resha had taken too many turns here and there to be certain of where exactly she was.

Somewhere down the hallway to her left, Resha could have sworn she heard the soft shuffling of feet down the hall? Approaching? Leaving? She wasn't much for company but by Faranth she wanted to lay nap so badly and this person - if it was a person - was going to take her to her room by Faranth!

With a look of hard determination, Resha strode down the hallway, searching for whoever might be heading her way.

Well, if it's no one after all, Resha thought,I can't get anymore lost than I already am.

Garel was just returning from his afternoon chores and post-chores bath, feeling in quite good spirits. He whistled softly to himself as he stepped into the welcome shade of the candidate barracks, sighing at the immediate relief from the brutal desert sun. Infernal sun... he was used to turns in the mines, and had yet to get used to the baking desert heat directly on his head. At least he'd begun to tan finally... those first few sunburns had hurt.

As he rounded a corner toward the commons area, he heard footsteps hurrying toward him from one of the corridors and glanced down it curiously, squinting to see in the dim light. A girl, and she looked a bit worried.

Furrowing his brow, he waved to her, "Ho, what's the problem uh... Miss?"

His face was immediately disapproving, thinking the girl was up to something. Snooping around the other candidates rooms maybe? Hmmph. He hadn't met this girl yet, and his mind began constructing all sorts of images of what she could possibly have been doing back here.

Whistling! She heard whistling, she was sure it was someone coming her way now. Resha instinctively picked up her pace, fingers wiggling at her sides with excitement. With relief for her problem so close - and getting closer by the sounds of it! - Resha's face was overcome with a giddy grin of excitement. Oh, oh, oh her dreams of being asleep were quickly reality!

A shadowy figure in the distance slowly became more substantial in the dim light of the corridor. At first Resha couldn't quite make out the individual's gender until they called out to her. A male and, as she realized when he came into better view, a disapproving one. Who was he to scowl at her?!

She began to slow, her grin fading, drooping into a frown. Her fists clenched then unclenched as she came to a stop in front of him, sizing him up shrewdly.

"Problem?" Resha said, her voice smooth if not a little cool. "I wouldn't call it a 'problem' persay."

She did not elaborate. If he was going to act snooty with her without even knowing anything about her what explination did she owe him - and what help could she want!

Garel blinked at the girl, frowning a little more. Kailey woke from her perch on his shoulder, the little green firelizard peering down at the girl as well and then turning to nip Garel on the cheek softly with a disapproving chirp of her own. He sighed, took a deep breath, and gave Kailey a thankful stroke. Mustn't be so judgemental all the time. Give people a chance, right? Right.

His scowl melted away in favor of a polite smile, "Forgive me, it has been a long day. I only ask since you look... er... rather lost." He gestured down the darkened hallway toward rooms unused.

Relaxing his shoulders, he folded his arms across his chest casually as Kailey peered back at the girl, her eyes whirling a soft blue.

"Maybe I can steer you back toward civilization, as it were?"

As Resha watched the young man's frown become deeper, she seemed to tense up. A little voice in the back of her mind stirred from silent sluber and began a frantic little chirp. Run, run, run, run! She shifted her weight from left to right and to right to left, appearing more edgy and flighty than she intended to. If she still looked up to no good in the other Candidate's eyes it was for good reason.

But then the little firelizard on his shoulder began to wake and gave the boy a little chirp, stroked his cheek with her head. He visibly relaxed and Resha watched with curiousity as a smile crept on to his face. Resha couldn't help her staring. What was the power of those little creatures? She still hadn't quite been able to wrap her head completely around the idea that another creature could know one's emotions and thoughts so intimately in spite of the fact that she had grown up with basic Weyr knowledge. Still, her eyes lingered on the flit wondering what it was about the little green that made him smile.

Unable to take her eyes away from the whirling blue of the firelizard, Resha spoke slowly, "Lost. Yes, I was. Am that is."

The little voice inside of her head begging her to run, run, run, run, run quieted but only for a moment. As she peered back into the young man's face it became louder again. Fighting her urge to give in to her mind's demand to flee, she tucked her arms behind her back and tried to lean casually on her left leg.

"Yes, I seemed to have taken a wrong turn...or two...or three...trying to find my room. I think they might have said barrack number ... twelve? I have it written down...some...where," At this thought, she proceeded to dig into her pockets for the piece of scrap she'd gotten her room number on.
