You walk through the door marked Ista and are surprised to find a fairly well cleaned weyr.  There must be somebody living in this weyr.  You can tell by the large size of it that it's made for a large sized queen dragon and her rider..

To your left you see a large one person bed.  Next to the bed is a night stand with a glowbasket on it.  As you look to the far left corner of the room you notice the door way which odviously leads to the bathing pool.  Braids of leather cover the door way as a sort of curtian.  Not far from the bathing pool you see the door way to the dragon's couch and the dragon's entrance to the weyr.
In the center of the room you see a large ovial slab of grannet set on top of a waist high rock to make a table.  A center peice of white and purple flowers  are in the middle of it well aranged.  You start to smell a delishus aroma in the room and see that next to the  flowers in a blue bubbly pie.  You start to make your way to the treat and sit down picking up the knife near by it.

A cough suddenly sounds, stopping your hand in mid air, the knife possed above the pie.  You turn towards the cough to see who was there.

You practicly fall out of your chair when you see a little girl of not more than 15 turns standing by a food shoot holding a tray of klah and fruit staring at you.  She is only about 5ft 3in tall yet is beautiful.  She is odviously by her naturaly tan skin from the Ista area of Pern.  Her hair is a sandy blond and her eyes a deep brown.  She doesn't seem to mind that you're in the weyr with her but she does seem to send you a warning about trying to eat the bubbly pie without her permission.
"Who are you?" she asks in a kind yet shy voice.  You tell her your name and she nods as she brings over the klah and fruit.  She smiles shyly at you and pours two cups of klah and hands you one of them.

"I'm Quachir(pronounced like Qua-cheery), formaly of Ista," she says and takes a sip of her klah and you follow her example, "I now live here in
Talor Cliff Weyr and am gold Mekoth's rider.  This is our weyr."  At this you practicly spray the klah in your mouth out.  This 15 turn old girl lived in this weyr and was a goldrider?  She giggles at your expression and quickly composes herself.

"You may call me Chir though," she smiles, "most every body else does, even the dragons.  So what brings you to my weyr?"

You scratch your head a bit, "I was just looking through the halls and it lead me to this coridor, thought there might be Ista stuff in here."

Chir giggles again and nods, "Well, in a way your right, most of the things in here are from Ista."  At that moment chittering is heard from all around the room.  You look about and suddenly notice the wirling eyes of three young fire lizards.  Chir whistles softly and the three fly over to the table from three diffrent dirrections.  You notice that they are all of the lower scale of fire lizards, a brown, a blue, and a green, and are all, but the brown, of the lighter veriety.
"These three how ever are from Talor Cliff Weyr," she smiles as she rubs her green's eye ridges, "I just impressed them about two sevendays before X'tro impress his big bronze, Rezoth.  You probably don't know about X'tro, well I'll tell you of him soon enough."

She seems to go very shy now and looks down at the pear she's eatting and then remember the bubbly pie.

"Oh, I'm sorry, would you like some?" she asks as she gently takes the knife out of your grasp and cuts two peices.
She smiles after she give you the pie.  And then on a whim decides to introduce you to her three flits.

"Your one of the many who have come to visit me so I think I should make proper introductions of my dear little fire lizards," she smiles a bit nerviously but goes on without stumbling, "This little green here is Xiptra, the blue is Taka, and my brown is Jester."

She smiles at you and giggles slightly as she notices that she has smeared some of the blue bubbly pie on her face.  She quickly whipes it away and grows very serious, almost adult like.

"Well, I can only assume you might want to know a little bit about
myself, my fire lizards, or Mekoth, so which will it be?" she smiles and you hear the hint of something resembling comand in her voice as you ask her about the subject you wish to learn about.

Junior Weyrwoman Quachir Gold Mekoth's Rider
Fire lizards
Mekoth

After the talk you and Chir find that her bubbly pie is all gone.  She giggles as she sees your slightly worried face.

"Don't worry, friend," she says sweetly, "I had that brought up so that if I had anybody visit they could have some.  I can just call down to the kitchen to send up some more."

"Well it was nice talking to you, Chir," you say as you get up.

"I hope I didn't bore you, or babble, I know I do that a lot," she smiles sheepishly at this.

"Don't worry about it, I'm glad I got to know you," you smile.

"Thank you for coming to visit.  If you think of coming again I can't promise I'll be here though, Mekoth is heavey with eggs now and might be on the sands very soon," she tells you and you nod in reponce before you
leave.
