The major event of past two months in Dragonfalls Weyr is G’wen’s injury during the Blooding.
His own stubbornness to admit the injury led to a serious blood infection, and people dear to him, like J’darin, T’bel, N’klar etc were worried he would die. Neanth didn’t budge from her spot of vigil no matter what and who said to her about. She only left when G’wen sneaked out of the infirmary during a blizzard! Which gave the weyrling scoldings from J’darin and later Telemon. G’wen is on the mend now, well enough to go for E’naer for little pampering. He hadmanaged to seduce the Weyrlingmaster’s third before his injury (or the other way around).
Of the other weyrlings, K’ale is having troubles with night drills. And the graduation will be soon. Not to mention new group of weyrlings after Onnyth’s eggs hatch! Create a candidate now!
U’kaiah is zipping from one woman to another. He’s trying to support Aileyan in her grief and Tavia in her pregnancy. Not an easy situation and way too easy to mess it up, as D’ale warned him.
W’ser gave his report to P’nal, while P’nal and G’nir dealt with the after effects of M’non’s death. The Weyrleader's wing needs a Wingthird (hint, hint!)
Lot’s of things are going on in DFW, join the fun!

For a moment, it looks as if the Auntie is asleep in her rocking chair - or maybe she's dead. So still she is that it seem she might be. Is she breathing? Approaching, her eyes open and a grin splits her mouth wide. "Ach, there ye be. Aye, it has been quiet." She agrees, then winks. "O' course, they often say tis but the calm b'fore the storm, aye?"
That rocking chair begins to go back and forth again, squeaking in protest from time to time. "Nae much happenin'...those sweet lasses Arippa and Halah went 'round helpin' ta d'liver supplies and all. Nice o' them ta help out like that. Course, they prob'bly didnae have much
say, but they seemed cheerful enough 'bout it. Says a lot 'bout their character, dontcha know?
"O' course, tha entire hold be waitin' wit' baited breath fer tha arrival of tha li'l ones. Tha Lord Holder needs an heir, aye. Let's hope tha Lady be able ta pr'duce once. I heard some Lords put aside their Ladies when they cannae pr'duce an heir. Zathris donnae seem like that, but o' course ye know how his father is. Mayhap things'll change if Benani donnae do her duty, aye?
Ah, speakin' o babies, that Kaya, Steward's wife was pregnant. Went ta get checked up on by tha healer Chupsin, but 'bout a sevenday later lost tha babe. Heard it was a boy. Poor thing. She didnae do well. Almost lost her 'cept Chupsin pulled her back from the brink o' death. Good healer that man. 'Course, Kaya's health be compr'mised. I heard
she's still abed. Nae sure what's goin' ta happen ta her next."
There's another annoyed squeak from the chair. "Ach, need ta get this thing oiled. That be all I have. Fer now. Ya listen ta me, t'aint nat'ral ta be so quiet. Thing's be stirrin' b'neath tha surface - I guarantee. Just keep yer eyes opened!"

The Vintner Hall has been busy this month! We are all happy to see the Hallmaster is feeling better, though he is taking things slowly, as well he should!
Teene dropped by the Hallmaster's office to remind him that he was supposed to not work so hard after his illness. His wife had her hands quite full taking care of him while he was sick. Perhaps he will have to do something special for her to thank her for all her kind attention.
Speaking of kind attention, Causton also had a very nice breakfast with Journeywoman Rikka, who has moved from the Hold to the Hall! Though she is still somewhat of an oddity being a female crafter, it seems people have been treating her kindly, which pleases Master Causton, espcially since so many women in his family have been crafters!
Rikka also received a warm welcome from the Tavern Master, Zandreu. She helped check on his refridgeration unit. It seems he remembers a time when female crafters were common place. He tells Rikka to inform him any time should one of his staff mistreat her, though he knows she will have to fight her own battles for acceptance.
Another Hall resident struggling with acceptence is Key. He has a chat with Master Daigoro, who believes the young man should think about settling down and getting married if he so choses. Key wants to, but feels no woman would want him because of his deformity. The Hallsecond suggests Key look in the outlying areas for a bride and has offered to do a little searching for him, though Key doesn't expect it will come to much.
The Hallseconds own marriage seems to still have it's troubles. Cinale is still struggling to overcome her miscarriage. When Daigoro's good friend brings his wife and young baby over to their cot, she feels jealous and mourns the loss of her own child all over again. That night she is confused by her husband's advances. She is not ready, but believes a good wife should not say no. In the end she does push him away, angry that he couldn't understand her feelings. She quickly regrets her anger, believing everything that happened was her fault. Can she find a way to move past this?
Why don't you come and join the Vintner Hall and get in on all the action!

The Harper Hall has been a bit busy this last month! It seems that some of the Harpers are still looking for a home, both within the Hall and in a new one!
Eilomar brought a young girl to talk to Hallsecond, Thanja. It seemed some boys had been harassing her, telling her to go home and making rather disturbing threats against her. Thankfully the choir master turned unlikely hero and rescued the girl, and even defended her to the Hallsecond. Could it be the crotchety Choir Master is losing some of his prejudice against female crafters? After all, as he realized, if he lost the female crafters now, he'd loose so many talented voices! Almonteo heard about the matter when Eilomar brought him his reports and recommendations for advancing apprentices. He encouraged Eilomar to heap praise on the girl to help boost her confidence. We'll see how he manages with that little assignment!
Hallmaster Almonteo also had a another visit with Lord Corowal. This time they met with a Mason who is making a design for the new Hall. It seems a friendly rivalry is growing between the Lord and Hallmaster to see who's building can out-shine who's! Almonteo is definitely getting excited by the prospect of a new home for his harpers.
There will be plenty of opportunities for storylines, especially now that the harpers will be moving back to backward minded Emerald Falls! Will they bring their new Weyr ways with them? Or will they keep mostly to themselves and ease into a life of peace and normalcy. I guess it's up to you to decide!

The conclave of Lord Holders met in Emerald Falls hold during the Gather. Morin was elected to Lord Holder of Sunstone seahold after some heated debate and voting.
Corowal and Sarban did the final summary of the Emerald Falls Gather and made plans for the future. Their list to do includes plans to open more holdings, improve relationship with Harper Hall, foster children and keep an eye on Morin.
The Hall is starting to move back to Emerald Falls hold and Eilomar and his wife Merlish were among the first to pick up their new cot. And sounds like the crafters will have boon in their trade.
People are taking a breath after the Gather. Now is the time to think up new plots!

Briata comes to see the eggs before the hatching at the Weyrwoman's behest. Orlaith urges her to try and hear the dragonets growing inside, but she doesn't get anything from them just yet.
R'enh and Meledei attended the hatching at River Bluff as Elleth waits back at Dolphin Cove. Rhosyn and G'nir danced together as the Weyrwoman considered the other Weyrleader. She also got to finally talk to the Dragonsfall Weyrwoman who she promised to visit soon. The two of them seem quite friendly.
Briata went to Y'gel to let him know that she was pregnant. The bronzerider offered to provide her with whatever she needed and she refused his offer to weyrmate, which put him in an awkward position. What will the future hold for these two? Y'gel later told the Weyrwoman about his surprise. Briata also writes a letter to Parale at Sunstone to let her know about the baby and the two of them exchange messages.
D'lorn and Y'gel chatted about his new promotion. Then the greenrider helped the new weyrlings through their first day of the rest of their lives. They received an anatomy lesson from the Weyrdragonhealer.
In preparation for the gather at Sunstone Seahold, Briata agrees to assist Rhosyn with getting a wardrobe together. This comes at a good time since one of the Weyr's aunties came to tell the Weyrwoman she should dress more appropriately. Orlaith, on the other hand, gets angry with Nikornath when he doesn't want to come sit with her in the morning.
R'sedel sleeps over at the Weyrwoman's weyr while the two of them enjoy themselves with gossip, food, and other good activities. The greenrider also catches up with D'lorn as they ogle some new transfers. The two of them end up heading off together instead.
Poor Honalyse is so bored that she asks D'lorn what she should do and the greenrider offers some suggestions. We'll see if they do her any good.

The Smithhall has been extremely quiet this last month. Hopefully that means folks are just thinking up great projects!
Daynar is still searching for a husband for Otrina. So far, he has had no more choices come to the front. He is considering looking farther afield than he has to find his daughter a "suitable" husband.
Oresthon, the newest apprentice is still having trouble adjusting. He really does not want to be a Smith.
Daynar is watching the aftermath of Alrog and Fieayz's wedding with interest....
I need bullies and apprentices! And a husband hopeful for Otrina! Who wants to play? I also need a Master of Apprentices for an upcoming story... SHHH!!!
