December 26: As many of you know, the Weyrwoman is going on a journey to all the Weyrs on Cyber-Pern. That means the weyr will be a little slow. But everything must keep going! I, the Weyrleader, and Victoria will be running everything. And if we're lucky, the gather will be up and running in the next week or so. Also, Rith's eggs will hatch soon. As soon as they do, Jewel and a few others will set off on their journey. If anybody wants to join the Weyrwoman, just e-mail her and ask her about it. It will be a good learning experiance in drawing, writing, html, and graphic making. Everyone is welcome. If you're not interested in joining, but want to see their progress, there will be a mesage board for the journeyers to discuss their travels, and anyone can go read and post there. I hope everyone is having a nice holiday. Don't worry about the Weyr, it will never close. The Weyrwoman would never allow that. She just needs a break, and some time to improve her skills. Clear Skies! -Clad and Silitonith

For a seemingly ever-lasting second, you are lunged into the coldness of between. Right when you think the coldness is going to sink into your bones, you feel the rush of wind on your back as you come out and find yourself hovering above a small weyr. You feel the muscles of the dragon rippling between your legs as it flaps it's wings and swoops down to the ground. Gasping, you hold on tightly as the dragon glides at unthinkable angles toward the ground. You crack your chin off the rider's shoulder as the dragon stops at the grass below. Sliding off, you look back to the huge beauty; the green dragon you just rode on.



Stepping backwards, you trip over something. You look up to see a young girl, about 16 or 17, standing there. "Hello, have a good trip? I hope so, because green Millionith and her rider Carana are still inexperianced. I would have flown you myself, but my Rith is full of eggs and can't fly right now. Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Jewel. I'm the weyrwoman of this weyr, although I'm still very young and I only have a green. But this weyr is small, and every one picked me to be weyrwoman, saying I was the most responsible. I make sure things are running smoothly and that every one is happy, for now anyway." the girl says. A tiny white speck falls from the sky, growing bigger as it nears, then lands on her dhoulder. "This," she says, pointing to the now visible white flit,"is Dystar. I won him in a contest a while back, but even so, I love him to pieces." (If you want to see his picture, visit the Weyrwoman's weyr!)

"Now, I'll show you around a bit." she says, flicking her hair and turning around. You follow her out in the middle of the weyr bowl, and she points up, to a large cliff,"That's Kelith, our watchwher. He doesn't have an owner really, he never did, but I treat him as my own."



She walks a little further into the weyr bowl and points to the left, to a large opening,"That's my weyr. If you go there, I'll meet up with you. Otherwise, you can wander around a bit, looking at the different weyrs. And if you want, you can go to the the sands to see if you can impress a dragon, the little sands and impress a firelizard, the cattery to get a feline, or the stables to get a runnerbeast. Or you can go back the the great hall in the hold. I should go, I have a lot of work to do. But do make sure you go visit my helper, Victoria. She is a great help. There are eggs on the sands also. Good bye for now traveller!" and she turns around, walking back to the hold. You see little signs infront of the weyrs, and a little sign infront of a small door at the enterence of the hold.




This is Sapphire Weyr's badger. If you see this, you'll know that the candidate or rider comes from here and is a unique persona made just by me or those working at Sapphire Weyr. If you impress a dragon here and want to become part of the weyr, just e-mail me your dragon's name, your name, and your Dragon's weyr URL. I'll send you the badge and a bit of HTML to paste into youe page.
