Greetings from sunny Dolphin Cove!
There’s always a lot happening here in our lovely tropical paradise �" everything from friendship to romance to dastardly villains. So let’s get to it!
E’tariax is vividly reminded that he should stretch properly before vigorous physical activity. Luckily Nidre is willing to get him medication and only teases him a little. S’kand remembers the first time Jagobroth caught Aphirith and how amazing the flight was. But when he and E’tariax attempt things without dragonlust, they find making out is . . . less than stellar.
After Ingrizon’s attack, R’lor checks on R’ayl and does his best to comfort the young bluerider. The morning after R’ayl is attacked, the Lighting Wing riders celebrate Gil and Tr’vel’s heroism. After Gil’s injury heals, he and Tr’vel have a race in the Weyrbowl, much to the delight of I’lek and the other retired riders. Under R’lor’s supervision, Gil teaches R’ayl some extra self-defense and the former holder gets up close and personal with Tr’vel as they spar.
Gilbek asks Tr’vel to deliver a letter to the cotholders who took care of him. Tr’vel happily agrees, and the old couple is glad to get word that Gil is doing well. Tr'vel brings Gil for a visit and they both enjoy a meal with Amigene and Rhysel. It seems the former prisoner and his former guard keep getting closer.
N’vanik explains the attack in the Dining Cavern to Cyradis. The Weyrwoman is furious and fed up with the attacks against the Weyr and tells N’vanik he can do what he wants with Ingrizon. N’vanik tries to do the right thing and goes to Corofel, and the young lord insists on a public hearing before he declares Ingrizon holdless. While waiting for the date of the hearing, N’vanik remembers staking out Shuvan for Thread and how Cyradis argued to spare Enali’s life.
Iskara and Cosani are less than pleased with some of their new wingmates, and they don’t care who hears them. Ç'pier is their main target and he sasses back to the greenriders. Y’dran arrives at Dolphin Cove with several family members and meets with the Weyrleader. Z’kylo gets a welcome to his new Wing from a fellow greenrider. R’lant and B’nell have a pleasant chat over breakfast. He also gives a physical to a rider. Meledei returns to Dolphin Cove and goes to catch up with N’vanik. O’rosin visits his family and while he admits he’s seeing someone, he doesn’t mention who it is. Lorican meets I’lek and gets an idea for a way the disabled greenrider might be able to use a flamethrower in Fall. Ysiel gets a minor injury and is glad to be treated by the handsome Vandor.
H’run can’t sleep and meets A’khal stargazing. H’run gets some help working on his painting skills from a Master Harper. He also meets Cosani and they share a bath. During another early morning, H’run runs into A’khal again and they agree to exchange a poem for a favor, but what favor remains to be seen (A’khal draws the line at singing in front of people). Looking to fix his gitar, H’run goes to B’nell and realizes they know each other.
The new brownrider Wingleader R’kede is settling into his role. N’tan meets with his new Wingleader and R’kede asks for recommendations on who he should choose as ‘Second. R’kede takes his advice and offers the rank to a fellow brownrider. R’kede remembers Iskara from when they were younger and she beat him in a sailing race. The Headwoman is happy to provide R’kede a larger weyr. R’kede discusses with his ‘Second and ’Third how to divide up their duties. He has some criticism for Ç'pier and decides to shift his position, which the younger brownrider misinterprets. Ç'pier still believes his fellow riders will send him to his death.
R’lor talks to Saedyna and encourages her to try having a pleasant experience of sex before Avarith’s first flight. She approaches C’rand and B’lyse and ends up accidentally talking herself into a threesome. When Avarith rises, Saedyna worries who she’ll end up with. To her surprise, it’s Tirraze, and even more surprising is how much they both enjoy it. Saedyna goes to her friend Cirina to get help figuring out her feelings for Tirraze. The greenrider finds the courage to ask Tirraze on a date, and the bluerider eagerly agrees.
I’serin asks E’tariax to become his mindhealer and they have their first session. The bronzerider discusses his difficulties with becoming Weyrleader. During another meeting, E’tariax asks I’serin about his father. Oh boy, what a can of worms that is! After one of his sessions, I’serin has a talk with N’vanik. Despite their different personalities and styles, the two Weyrleaders seem to get along well.
V’tian asks Cirina for tips on firelizard hunting. With help from Chandrany, V’tian goes to a beach in search of firelizard eggs. They’re successful, but not without a bit of tragedy. T’lin approaches V’tian to offer help getting ready for Indith’s first flight and they decide to spend a little time together first. The two of them have a pleasant time at a Gather, and when they get home V’tian finds the courage to take the next step.
The Candidates have been busy while they wait for their chance on the Sands. Nijen transfers to Dolphin Cove and goes to speak with the mother he barely knows. After losing his fostermother, he’s desperate for a parental connection, and Nidre wants to try for his sake. Afterwards, Nijen reflects on his conversation with Nidre and finds hope. A new Candidate arrives and meets Ryvankal and Oriene. Chandrany’s mother encourages her to look for work in the lower caverns, worried that failing to Impress will break her. Chandrany gets her friend Farangen to agree to weyrmate if neither of them Impresses. Ilthralos discusses with his wife what will happen if she Impresses. He spends time working on The Weyr Report, which he hopes will grow in circulation.
A’vel Searches Juvelyas, who jumps at the chance to escape to the Weyr. Once there, he doesn’t make friends with Ryvankal and Oriene despite their attempts. Kaedin talks to the Weyrlingmaster about his hopes for Impression. When Noruith gets a minor injury in Fall, Kaedin tends to him. Kaedin talks with a fellow dragonhealer apprentice while they take inventory. Cirina exchanges gossip via letter with Aydhara, though firelizard delivery is less than reliable. Lindora comes to speak with the Weyrlingmaster about potential living arrangements for her daughter if the young mother decides to Stand. R’lor takes the Candidates on trip to a Gather and they decide to turn dancing into a competition.
Reyela and Ryvankal go on a date. A terrible date. K’don, on the other hand, has a better time with his crush at a party. But when he encourages Maciath to chase Eismuth, Ç'pier ends up with the prize instead and K’don is left unsettled. Later they smooth things over and the greenrider promises to guide K’don through sexual experience. He’s not the only rider without experience. O’dyn goes to R’lor to see if there’s a way to prevent Genireth from chasing. Sex is gross!
R’lor updates his class materials on dragonrider sexuality, and Sh’del teases him for not noticing until now that some brownriders are into men. Alyena discusses a request R’lor has for some special equipment for bluerider Tirraze.
After visiting Barrier Lake and seeing Kapera unconscious in the infirmary, Talryne seeks comfort with her weyrmate, the man who became her anchor after she lost her own dragon. Sh’del and Talryne have a drink and talk about the recently graduated weyrlings and how she’s feeling with Riyanth’s death bringing up her trauma.
But hope abounds at Dolphin Cove as a large, healthy clutch hatches and new bonds are formed. Ryvankal Impresses Indrath, a blue chooses Juvelyas, and Oriene . . . walks away alone again. She makes a decision about her future and tells her friend Tirraze. Chandrany, too, is once again disappointed. Aicha is overjoyed to Impress Luranth.
N’vanik catches up with his old friend G’zan. They first met when they were Holdess teenagers, and crossed paths again when they were both riders. N’vanik was less than polite to G’zan, but later asks for them to start over because he’s in need of friends. Things get a little interesting after Loseth catches Panghuth and N’vanik doesn’t leave the flight cot right away.
Things heat up at the Feast when N’vanik and Z’kim put on a show with a blazing hot dance. Vianne has a dance with her beloved husband Ilthralos. I’serin tries to figure out what’s going on between N’vanik and Z’kim while they shamelessly flirt in front of him. K’mai is sure they’re sleeping together and tells I’serin as much before he goes to ask the Dolphin Cove Weyrleader for a dance. N’vanik obliges him while I’serin partners with Talryne. K’mai apologizes to H’run for what happened at Dragonsfall and they discuss how neither of them can change their feelings. K’mai gets a dance with Z’kim and tries to get the greenrider to admit he’s sleeping with N’vanik. Z’kim runs into H’run and brags about sharing flights with N’vanik.
Nidre’s gold Jossenth Rises and is caught by . . . a brown?!? From Dragonsfall?!?!? What an upset for the Dolphin Cove bronzes!

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).

Latest News
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!

Wingthird Jeyme meets a Healer named Zaverin at Turns’s End, and they bond over the losses and changes they’ve felt over the last few turns. She starts to cautiously open her heart to the dragonless healer.
A’vel received bad news: his father is dying. He turns to R’nar for comfort. Aydhara continues to sulk because she didn’t Impress. Br’elt joins Ash Wing and is welcomed by D’ren.
The Weyrlings have their first flights. R’bain and A’lin discuss the changes in their lives, and V’rdryn and A’lin bond over Impressing blue dragons. N’kevyn tries to hide getting burnt by an irate firelizard from Aydhan, which doesn’t work. Aydhara and Ketlyn reconnect.
The Weyr holds a Completion Ceremony for Barrier Lake Weyr at the beginning of month 2 to celebrate the massive amount of work that went into its construction. Guests were invited from near and far, including O'rosin and Cirina from Dolphin Cove Weyr. Near the end of the night, Kapera’s gold dragon Riyanth summons the Weyrwoman back to her own weyr after a man gives her meat. Kapera is ambushed and stabbed, and in her panic for her rider Riyanth goes /between/. Kapera’s weyrmate J’nus tries to throw the man responsible - Zaverin - off the ledge, but Zaverin is rescued by D’kere.
Kapera is stabilized by the Healers but is in a coma for several days. J’nus stays by her side, and the bronzerider is unhappy to learn that Zaverin is not dead after all- although he is relieved that he is not a murderer after all. When Kapera wakes, she is convinced by J’nus to stay alive a little longer, at least until they are able to obtain justice for Riyanth. She is visited by Weyrleader N’vanik and his dragonless weyrmate Talryne from Dolphin Cove, and both she and J’nus are grateful for their support and friendship. They understand what Kapera is going through better than just about anyone on Pern.
The events at the Completion Ceremony throw the Weyr into turmoil. The Weyrlings are comforted by the Weyrlingstaff and Rasme, whose gold dragon Piketh keeps them from going /between/. Aydhan and N’kevyn leaned on each other to deal with their fear and help, while some of the former River Bluff riders supported each other after yet another traumatic event, including F’lin and D’relt, along with their friends Br’elt and C’lest. Families gather, including Saerya and Rasme, and D'men and Y'rim. Weyrleaders from the other Weyrs visit to offer their support.
Weyrharper Q’vettan and D’kere question Zaverin and find out that his attack on Kapera was an act of revenge. He blamed Kapera for the loss of his own dragon in Threadfall, saying that it was her responsibility to keep his dragon from going /between/ when he was knocked unconscious during Threadfall.
Skybroom Wing is another casualty of Zaverin’s knife when both its Wingleader and Wingthird resign in the wake of the tragedy. Jeyme is comforted by her ex, D’hol.
But life moves on. Rasme has a birthingday. K’lvin recruits a new Wingthird to teach the Weyrlings, but it turns out that he is much too attracted to Viseya. Aydhara throws herself a giant birthingday bash and invites her friends from other Weyrs. She kisses Casmari beneath the stars. The redfruit doesn’t fall far from the tree, as her parents pick up a strange bluerider in a bar for sexy threesomes.
The Weyrlings’ classes continue and they graduate as Senior Weyrlings and move into their own weyrs. N’kayden and Ketlyn decide to sleep together to prepare for mating flights, and both are horrified to discover that N’kayden is a horrifically bad lay. N’kayden finds himself an intimacy coordinator and Ketlyn tries her luck again with V’dryn. Casmari is also worried about mating flights and seeks advice from her father C’rin.
N’kevyn develops baby fever, and also after much searching and spending marks on various ‘foolproof’ tools he finds a clutch of flit eggs on his birthingday picnic, no less. Aydhan gifts two of these eggs to the new goldriders sent to Barrier Lake Weyr: Agyta and Thiseta.
When the flit eggs hatch, N’kayden impresses two greens, Aydhara impresses a blue, Aydhan impresses a brown, and the egg-stealer himself, N’kevyn, impresses his own tiny gold flit - and the work involved cures his desire for another child. Thiseta impresses a green flit and can’t think of a name for it.
Thiseta moves her weyrmate, Master Healer Teigan, to Barrier Lake after her talk with the other goldriders. Thiseta is more enthusiastic about the move than he is, but both are committed to making it work. The pair invite Teigan’s brother K’lvin over for dinner, but the juiciest stories about the Weyrlingmaster come from J’nic.
The Weyrlings survive their Blooding and are assigned to their new Wings.

A recent visit from a Wingleader to the Sunstone Market cause a bit of a stir amongst the local vendors. Rumors being what they are they shouldn’t be believed but he did barter with the merchant to give her a ride to visit her sister.
The Lord himself was seen riding hard down to the Lighthouse with his sister the Lady Brina who came back and rushed into the Hold. Her brother returned a bit later chuckling. So what did they see out there?
Good news, our new Master Smith’s wife has provided him with another child. This time a health girl. The healers were positive that this birth went quite well.
Things are quiet right now but that isn't always the case at Sunstone. Follow your dreams to a location on the ocean with plenty of Citron groves.
