Dearest Reader,
The month of August brought change to Dragonsfall Weyr. Many valiant bronze dragons gave chase to Chioneth, but it was I'serin's Aluneth who claimed the golden prize. Perhaps the most noteworthy performance of all was given by brown Roquath, who stayed in the flight far longer than anyone expected. The most shocking moment of the flight, however, belongs to poor Mnoranth, who was injured by Chioneth during a midair collision. Although, perhaps we shouldn't pity R'enh too much, since he was 'consoled' by the lovely Ashela.
I wonder, dearest reader, out of all those who put money down, who won the bet on the new Weyrleader?
After the flight, E'kavas of dashing Roquath woke up from a nightmare which featured _him_ as the new Weyrleader, and the laughingstock of Pern. Fortunately for E'kavas, it was I'serin who woke up beside of Saibra and had to, reluctantly, claim the new title and all the responsibilities that go with it.
Saibra and I'serin have lunch together the day after the flight, wherein they agree to make the best of their situation and treat one another as teammates, and maybe someday, friends. I'serin meets with R'enh in the hopes that the former Weyrsecond will take up his old position, but R'enh decides he'd rather be a Wingleader once again.
Speaking of the new Weyrleader, he is a bit mysterious and finds himself thrown off-kilter by a flirtatious K'mai. I'serin also takes a visit from his father, who tries to use his years of experience to pull I'serin's strings like a puppet. The new Weyrleader is not to be manipulated, despite the simmering anger and resentment he feels towards his father. The other River Bluff transplant that I'serin meets with is E'kavas, Wingsecond to the Weyrleader. The brownrider turns out to be a much more supportive and level-headed visitor.
M'kayre, a top prospect for Weyrleader, has dreadful luck. While he has a complicated and spicy 'relationship' with brownrider B'kul, he wakes up with the prickly Zaphare after Chioneth's flight, and neither finds the experience very enjoyable.
Around the Weyr, M'til and I'lon discuss books and being boring. E'kavas meets Vaile after their children bring them together. In the Weyrling quarters, the new Weyrlingmaster T'lonas, calls a meeting with M'thos and K'yne. The latter is only interested in taking notes, however, out of duty to Weyrwoman Saibra.
L'kav's Feyonth rises and he finds himself with a familiar face - E'kavas. Speaking of familiar, E'kavas talks with Jaylene regarding the anniversary of River Bluff's closing. Merhaksel and Syerin commiserate over another failed attempt at impressing, but things begin to turn around for Syerin when he works with Vaile in the dragon infirmary. After speaking with the Weyrdragonhealer, Syerin decides that he'll try dragonhealing, at least that will keep him at the Weyr if he doesn't Impress.
Ashela and Th'reyos negotiate more than just the tithe, and my readers, wouldn't we have all been glad to be a flit on the wall during those negotiations?
Green Isaroth rises, despite Yasmeane's contempt for mating flights. It does bring Yasmeane some small comfort that X'eri, her new 'friend,' was there as he promised. It was a most unexpected turn of events, however, when Kadira's blue Ishath ended up catching Isaroth.
Jaylene and J'nne pay Kamalia a visit as she and Alaudath heal from their Threadscores. L'keri and K'mai think up names for the new sausage experiment.
I'serin attempts to make up for being awkward with K'mai and fails. Varethos and Zaphare gossip after the goldflight. After all, there was plenty to say about M'kayre.
Aydhan poaches Jaylene for Barrier Lake Weyrhold, but the Barrier Lake goldrider should be wary, Dragonsfall is possessive of its riders.
And now, my readers, I leave you with the heavy news of the Weyrleader's first Threadfall. Despite his Turns of studying, nothing could have prepared I'serin for the onslaught of leading the entire Weyr. Many dragons were injured, and one fatally so - I'lon of blue Napeth.

COROFEL RETURNS HOME
Harper Hallsecond Jalanya reported to Lord Corowal about unauthorized prison labor and an amassing of fighting men, including some former Emerald Hills guards, at White Hollow Hold (Troubling Reports). Former Guard Captain Zandan previously purged from employment at Emerald Hills all those guards whose loyalty he could not confirm and replaced many with his own men (Persona Profile: Zandan).
Corofel returned to Emerald Falls from his fostering at Amber Hills to find that his father, Lord Corowal, had mysteriously disappeared (Moving Back Home). Speculation and rumor ran rampant at the Hold as to what happened to him (Speculation amd Rumors).
While waiting for the Conclave to determine how to proceed given Corowal's absence, Elana believed in giving Corofel a chance, while her aunt was more skeptical of his suitability for the role (Uncertain Futures).
Having been appointed Acting Lord Holder, Corofel sought advice from his Provisional Warder, Reven of Green Valley (Navigating a New Norm). Upon his suggestion that he be visible, Corofel visited the Hold's Master Healer Rhudas and made a dinner appointment to meet his wife and daughter (Dinner Plans).
On the advice of Lord Zathris's Guard Captain, Karhal, Corofel promoted Zandan's lieutenant Oriel Captain of the Guard at Emerald Hills Hold (Persona Sheet: Oriel).
Corofel hired former Dolphin Hall Headwoman Jalanya to take over the Headwoman position at Emerald Falls (Same Position, New Place), and Gordenic to become the full time Steward (Persona Profile: Gordenic).
ENVAL MURDERS WATCHRIDER TR'FAL
A mysterious Shadow ordered the killing of Emerald Falls's watchrider, Tr'fal, and Enval carried it out by gruesomely beheading the man (The Last Day of Summer). The man was caught red handed, and Captain Oriel interrogated him but learned nothing (Bad Cop, Bad Cop).
Corofel sought guidance from Reven as to how to handle the murder, who advised him not to roll over to the Weyr and ensure himself that justice is done in his protectorate (Measured Responses). N'vanik visited from Dolphin Cove, hoping to extradite the culprit. Corofel refused but ensured him the man would face justice and agreed to allow N'vanik and his guard a supervised opportunity to interrogate him themselves (The Punishment Will Fit the Crime).
COROFEL SEEKS TO ESTABLISH RELATIONSHIPS
While attempting to visit his siblings, Corofel encountered Elana in their quarters, and she nearly brained him with a toy runnerbeast (The Stranger). She recounted the tale later to her friend Sellimere (What Awaits Us).
Corofel spoke to Reven about a plan to travel through the entirety of the Emerald Hills Protectorate to meet with his minor Holders, get to know them, and learn how to support them (Riding the Circuit). However, Captain Oriel convinced him to take a more realistic approach (Let's Reign It In, Shall We?)
THE BALLAD OF BRENNAULT AND ZAVEK
Zavek returned home to Lavender Run from his stay at the Weyr with Brennault, but a troublesome blackmail letter from an interloper who caught sight of their tryst quickly ruins all of the happy feelings he had built at Dolphin Cove (Good Feelings Gone).

The new Turn brought startling news at the Harper Hall - Hallmaster Vestian has named a woman as his new Hallsecond. Master Jayala has taken to her duties with her usual efficiency, but not everyone is pleased by a female harper taking the second rank in the Hall. One person who was delighted was elderly Master Zahira, who decided that her granddaughter's promotion meant she could return to Emerald Falls for the first time since the plagues.
Master Eilomar brought a surprise for his wife Merlish - an adorable little kitten. The gift was happily received, despite Eilomar ending up with a few scratches and gnawed fingers, but later an intimate moment between husband and wife was interrupted by feline crying. Will Eilomar end up regretting the new addition to the family?
Jayala continued her quest to recruit more female apprentices by offering a tour to one prospective applicant - Gesylle, the daughter of Trader Westyn - and invited her to the concert for the Lord Holder's birthday. She had a setback when the parents of another apprentice sent for her to return to their hold to be married.
Journeywoman Tasni has been continuing her search for the guard who was blamed for the fire at the Harper Hall. With the help of fellow journeyman Ueltin, she planned a trip to Forest Springs Hold, where the holder may have a grudge against Lord Corowal, and the two set off together in the guise of a bickering husband and wife. Unknown to her, Ueltin has been reporting back to Master Jayala about Tasni's activities. Is she a Northern spy, or does she have her own reasons for infiltrating the outlying holds?
There's plenty of mystery, politics and opportunities for new crafters at the Harper Hall!
