then.
kiiron followed myra through the woods, trying to work up the courage to ask her his question. "uh." he started. "you look beautiful today."

without stopping, myra called back to kiiron over her shoulder, "i always look beautiful." kiiron almost tripped over the air. was the other elf actually flirting back at him? or was she just being sarcastic? kiiron didn't know.

"oh i know. i just said that because i wanted to make you annoyed - you're especially cute when you're annoyed." he said. myra snorted and shot him an incredulous look. "look," grinned kiiron, "see?"

she rolled her eyes. "well, you look quite handsome when you're happy." kiiron gave an overdramatic gasp, stopped, and clutched his heart, falling to his knees. "my heart!" he announced. but in reality, his heart was beating at a much faster pace than kiiron thought was normal.

"don't let it get to your head." she said, but still offered him a hand anyways. kiiron took it and myra pulled him to his feet. realizing now was the time for his question, kiiron licked his lips and started, "myra… um. do you - do you -" but what he was saying was cut off by a burst of profanity from nearby.

kiiron's mouths snapped shut, understanding the need for quiet as he and myra crept towards the noise. they heard a small groan, presumably made by the same person who they had heard before, and then whoever it was muttered something in another language. myra's eyebrows shot up in surprise. turning to kiiron, she mouthed, language from the other continent.

the two crept closer until they could see into a small clearing. a handsome elf was leaning against a tree, his right leg stretched out in front of him, mangled and covered in blood. kiiron couldn't hold back a gasp, but myra was already in the clearing, rushing to the elf's aid.

the elf looked up as they approached him and said something in the foreign language. myra answered. the man paused looking embarrassed, and said something back to myra. myra asked him something, and he gave her a one-word answer. she nodded and beckoned kiiron over.

"what did he say?" asked kiiron as he approached the two. "he was attacked by a couple of lions he irritated." came the answer. the injured elf looked surprise. "you guys speak the common-tongue?" he asked.

kiiron gave him a look. "why wouldn't we?"

the elf pointed at myra. "she smells of the old continent." myra didn't look surprised at the elf's remark. "i only left six years ago." she clarified.

"oh." kiiron said. awkward silence ensued for a moment before the elf groaned in pain. "help me carry him." myra ordered kiiron as she ducked under one of the elf's arms. kiiron did the same on the other side, and together they hoisted him to his feet. the elf put his weight on his good leg and when it didn't hurt, tried to help kiiron and myra by hobbling along.

"three elves walk through a forest." he said. "it sounds like the beginning of a joke."

kiiron just sighed. he guessed he would have to wait to ask myra how she felt about him - and to tell her how he felt about her. then he remembered something. "oh, mystery friend." he said. "you should probably know we have a lion living in our hold."

"what!?"

---

"you have to be more careful around lions, you know." simon said, drumming his fingers along the side of the cot. the new elf - raiden, he'd said his name was - gave a long drawn out sigh. "don't remind me."

there was a small pause in the conversation in which only the drumming of simon's fingers could be heard. raiden tilted his head. "what exactly is your job here?"

simon's fingers stilled. "my wife and i hand out assignments, patrols, hunts to go on. we check up on patients like yourself. we cook as well - i can make a killer omelette - and are apparently in charge of any non-crafter or non-dragonrider staff as well."

"dragonriders?" raiden asked. "this is a weyrhold? i didn't see any dragonriders."

"that's because our lady holder hasn't been able to get her hands on an egg yet." simon said. raiden's eyes twinkled. "if she does, i would love to try and impress a dragon. it would be..." raiden let his sentence trail off into thought. simon knew what the elf meant, though. brilliant. amazing. wonderful. free. simon had grown up in a weyrhold and heard this a million times.

simon stood. "what to hear a joke before i leave?" raiden snapped out of his thoughts and eyed simon suspiciously. "what kind of joke?"

simon waved the question away. "have you ever heard the joke about boo?" he asked. "who?" raiden answered. then, immediately realizing what he said, he held his hand up to keep simon silent. "don't you dare finish the joke." the elf ordered him. simon let his fingers drum across the edge of the cot one last time. "there's no need to cry about a joke!" he finished, patting raiden on the cheek.

the elf pushed him away and rolled his eyes as simon turned to leave. "how many more dad jokes do you have?"

simon grinned, glad he had brightened the elf's day. "plenty."

now.
"where is everybody!?" yelled kiiron. still no response. he crossed his arms and frowned. the hold, recently finished, was being used for a game of hide-and-seek, as suggested by simon. almost the entire hold had agreed to play. only myra and amira had decided to sit the game out, talking about something in myra's new office. of course asariel and jurus had taken some convincing to play, but both had joined grumbling about the childishness of the game.

kiiron called out again, but of course nobody answered. kiiron opened the nearest door into a dark room. as his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he spotted a table, a lot of cabinets, and - "marius! i see you!" kiiron called out.

the young cervitar huffed and came out fully from behind the cabinets. "what gave it away?" he asked. "my horns?"

kiiron left and gently punched marius's deer shoulder. "you're too big for hide and seek, my friend."

marius pushed some of his hair out of his face and said, "if you take that back. i'll tell you where the others are." kiiron didn't hesitate. "words taken back!" he announced. marius rolled his eyes and punched kiiron's shoulder. "simon went upstairs that way. the rest went up that way, but i think asariel doubled back and is hiding somewhere down here."

kiiron nodded and headed towards the stairs. "you look down here for asariel, then go looking for simon. i'll go after the others." marius mock soluted him and trotted off, presumably towards where he had seen asariel.

kiiron headed up the stairs, his eyes wide open to catch any movements. a rustle of a curtain, and he found jurus. a clatter from inside a room, and kiiron found carlyn trying to pick up scattered items while yelling at shinx. the creak of a door opening, and he found natalia - though it took ten whole minutes of him searching the room to find her.

when he came out of the room with natalia, marius and jurus were talking nearby as asariel, carlyn, and alaris leaning against the wall. doing a quick count in his head, kiiron figured they were missing raiden and simon.

with everyone else searching, it took only two more minutes to find raiden. but simon's hiding place remained a mystery.

---

the door to myra's office opened and shut, and simon came in, breathless. "you don't mind if i hide in here, do you?" he asked. "that little elf will never think to look in here."

myra beckoned him over. "actually, no. you can stay in here, but i need to talk to you and amira." simon raised his eyebrows and sat down opposite myra, next to amira. "what is it?" he asked.

myra took a look around at her office. it was soundproofed, private. still, she lowered her voice. "i don't want anyone to know about this, in case they start freaking out. but there have been rumors of an impression coming soon in black rock weyrhold."

simon sucked in a breath. amira leaned forwards. "only rumors, i'm assuming?"

myra nodded. "apparently, it's been a while since their gold has risen. i was wondering if it would be polite to ask about it, and send some candidates to the impression, if it happens."

amira bit her lip. simon leaned back, looking thoughtful.

"we should wait." amira decided. "if these rumors come true, we can extend a question to their weyrwoman. but the weyrhold has a good reputation - they're more likely to extend an invitation to us, then us having to ask them." myra nodded, but whatever she was going to say was cut off when her door was flung open.

"myra, have you seen -" kiiron's voice cut off as he saw simon. "nevermind. found him."

amira gave myra a grin, previous topic forgotten. "so he's on a nickname basis with you now? and he can enter your office whenever he feels like it?"

simon grinned. kiiron blushed. myra just leveled all three of them a glare.

In the beginning the world was nothing more then a giant ball of rock - and then paws graced it's surface and from the stars fell the graceful ocelot. Vyara grew the forests and plains, she painted every flower and blessed the planet with Land Beasts. They lived for decades without disruption, feeding on the brightly colored berries and leaves while some of them took to eating other Land Beasts. Vyara didn't meddle in the evolution of her creations - time was no promising thing. One day a creature approached Vyara, distraught and confused. Chihlo said, "we need more then land! I want to feel like i'm floating, like I haven't a worry in the world." Vyara was confused by these demands yet her answer came as a shrug, "Speak with the stars, Chihlo, they answer many wishes." That night, under the full moon Chihlo raised his maw and spoke to the sky, "please, stars," he began to plead, "help me find my way to weightlessness." The sky filled suddenly with great big, grey clouds and from them fell giant raindrops, the first of which fell directly on Chihlo's nose. Skin grew between his toes and his tail grew long and flat. The first giant otter, king of the rivers was born that night alongside the rivers, lakes and oceans. Many creatures followed Chihlo that night into the water and that's how the Water Beasts came to be. Yet another decade later and the stars found their creatures in the midst of war. Water Beasts and Land Beasts murdering each other for vengeance and simply for the thrill. Vyara, normally placid, approached a river shore with her short fur on end, eyes alight with fury, "Chihlo!" She roared at the water, "Come and meet your fate, you slippy furred coward!" The giant otter was upon a rock that split the water in a moments notice. The only feature on his face that gave away his temper were his beady eyes, "Me? A coward? You started this war, Vyara!" The ocelot returned the statement with nothing more then a snarl and a lash of her tail. The much larger giant otter seemed to grin, "so you welcome your death with open paws." The two bunched their muscles in preparation to launch at the other when massive dark clouds covered the sky. Shock overtook their anger as a violent crack of lightning split the sky, its fiery white point striking the ground separating the two. The two creatures looked up to see its origins to see a large thing with wide wings speeding toward them. The eagle came close and as he began to speak his voice echoed through the land, "The stars have seen enough, Vyara and Chihlo. The wars end now." Lignir had come in the form of a Harpy Eagle and the three carnivores stared at each other in spite. Vyara and Chihlo were weary of this large bird knowing the stars themselves sent him their way - yet how could their anger die so easily? Lignir invited many creatures to become like him and thus the Sky Beasts were born. Lignir tried for several months to keep war at bay until the stars sent him a message - avoiding war was futile - the jaguar would forever prey on the fish, the caiman would always kill the toucan and eagle would always feast upon mice. An endless circle that was hopeless to avoid so the stars decided to let it flourish. They invited humans to worship their creations, their children and so Ekesh was born. The humans holders of the many shapes of the animals be they Land, Water or Sky Beasts.

The people of Ekesh come in all naturally found skin, eye and hair colors. They are strictly shape-shifters and they regard wildlife with the greatest respect. Every kill receives a prayer, every companion is treated like one of their own. They're a generally peaceful folk albeit they're weary of strangers. Their members obtain one new shift every ten years they've been alive, however, all but the leader only learn shapes of one following - land, water or sky.

They reside deep in a rainforest and due to the harsh conditions most people rarely live past the age of seventy. Their ranks are simple with only that of the king/queen and council of five being a variant from normal villages. Two spots in the council are reserved for elders, or those who have aged past seventy as they're seen to have been blessed by the gods.

Winter
Winter is here! During winter, your villagers will likely catch even less prey and the odds of deaths during births will continue to rise. In addition, they are far more prone to catching sickness and are more likely to die from even a mild cold if not taken care of properly.

For some villages, they will see the first snows begin. Harvest time is over and most animals will be simultaneously at their most vulnerable yet less likely to be found.

Eshni trembled as Waxinnan tied her journeyman knot. She wanted to burst into tears but held strong. For herself. For her family. For her now-former mentor.

"Congratulations, Eshni," said Wax gravely. "You're now a journeyman, capable of teaching the next generation in our history and lore. Or," he said with a grin, "come up with some silly song to be encoded in writing for all time." That broke the tension in the air and Eshni smiled as the other people in the hall, most of the Weyrhold, began to cheer.

***
Rosanth hovered in the air for a moment before dropping down in a smooth, practiced move. She landed easily on her hind legs and then settled on her forelegs, then knelt down to allow Seanni and her passangers to disembark.

"Welcome to the Weyrhold," she said with a smile at the small family. "We're glad to have a new family join us. You'll be staying in the barracks until we can build you a house."

"A house?" asked Fella, who was apparently to be apprenticed in Starcraft. "Just for us? Gri, Thiolo, we get our own house?"

Thiolo, a journeyman farmercrafter, chuckled and ruffled Fella's hair. "Part of why I decided to move here. No need to work for a Holder, no need to be sent round and round to different Holds or Weyrs, just a new home for us."

"You have other Beastcrafters, Weyrwoman?" Griengrilon asked Seanni.

Seanni dipped her head. "Master Abesses, appointed by the Southern Masterbeastcrafter, is the head of the Black Rock beastcrafters. He leads a team of three, along with various Weyrholdfolk who help them on occasion. We may end up with a couple new apprentices in the beastcraft as some of the weyrbrats are testing occupations, seeing where they fit best."

Griengrilon nodded. "I'm a beasthealer and breeder, so I'd like to be put in charge of that team if there's one."

"I don't think there's such a team," said Seanni carefully, "because most of them typically focus on the farming aspect of herdbeasts, but we'd be very happy to have someone knowledgeable about these subjects."

Griengrilon grunted, seemingly happy.

"Are there any kids here?" piped up Fella.

Seanni grinned. "Absolutely. We have several other apprentices, a couple your age, and some younger kids. If you see Nebenni or Seregan, tell them that mama and Rosanth told them to stop running around looking for fire-lizard eggs."

Thiolo chuckled. "Kids are kids, no matter who their parents are."

"Mhmm," agreed Seanni. "Doesn't matter that I'm the Weyrwoman and that their father is Weyrleader. Doesn't matter that Headwoman Renolla has tried to get them to stay in line. They run wild and take the other weyrbrats with them. Harper journeyman Eshni, who graduated a few sevendays ago, was barely able to manage them with help. The Fostering staff helps a great deal, though. If you need any help in regards to childcare, go talk to them."

"Thank you for this opportunity," said Thiolo, holding out her hand to shake with Seanni. The Weyrwoman obliged and the two women smiled at each other.

"We're still growing and any new members only increase our collective prosperity."

***
Nitia had been moved to the North Tower's healing center so that the Healers could keep an eye on her. At the moment, it was Shollun and Fira who were tending to her while Camilla was out looking for numbweed.

"How long has she been in labor for?" Shollun asked Fira.

"Uhhh..." Fira though for a moment, remembering. "About six hours, right?"

Shollun nodded, lips twitching in an almost-smile. "That's correct. How are you feeling?" he asked Nitia.

"I feel like--" she began to reply, almost snarling, before Shollun cut her off.

"Understood," he said, this time visibly smiling.

"The sooner this is over, the better," Nitia continued.

"But doesn't fellis stop the pain?" asked Fira innocently.

Nitia relaxed and laughed. "They say, they say. They say many things. Just because I know what to expect doesn't mean that it's going to hurt less. Healers can do many miraculous things to lessen the pain but even with fellis, we'll never have the same types of injections they used that made it completely painless."

"Oh. That...does make sense though."

"Glad it does."

"Alright," said Shollun, turning to Fira again. "Could you check to see if the water has been all warmed up?"

Fira nodded and ran out of the room.

***
"How...willing would you be?" asked Seanni as she dipped the rag into the oil.

Willing to do what?

"Willing to let your children be sent off to nearby Holds." Impression was a serious question, now that Borinth and Zerith were mature and Rosanth likely to rise in the next few turns. How many children in the Weyrhold would there be willing to and able to Impress? The apprentices and some of the younger journeymen certainly would be more than capable if they wished, but most of the children who weren't yet apprentices would be...well, wasted.

It was a bitter fruit to swallow, but true. Yes, the dragonriders were scouts, transporters, and helpers. Yes they took care of the dragons who continued to come into existence, turn after turn despite their technical unnecessity. But it was the Crafts who were the future now. Oh, she supposed that a dragonrider could also be a Craftsman. It happened more and more, now. But if one of the younger dragons laid more eggs than there were suitable candidates for Impression, it would be disaster. And so Seanni had started considering whether she should contact the Holds she protected.

Eldthora, though her foster sister, was none too fond of dragons although perhaps she could see the sense in a blue or green posted to keep watch and help if needed. Dovefeather was small, more a cothold than anything, but the Lady Holder, Myracle, had flat-out stated that she intended to gain a dragonrider whether it was through one of her own being sent for Impression or a Weyrhold-born being posted in Dovefeather. Cyrrane, Vakarosa, the Blackpaw Family, and Expanse were unknowns. Though Seanni was friendly with the leaders of the first three Holds, Vakarosa was too far and was more a...a neighboring state rather than a Hold under her protection, and the people who roamed the tundra of Expanse rarely talked with dragonriders sent on missions there. This left Seanni with hard choices to make in regards to future Impressions. What would she do?

What are you worried about? asked Rosanth, stretching her neck to let Seanni reach a hard-to-oil spot. My children will be fine, whoever they Impress and wherever they go. They are smart and capable--Borinth is a fine example, though only a green. And I know you would not accept a faulty candidate.

Seanni chuckled weakly. "Yes, but I simply don't know if I'm willing to give up a whole generation of children to dragons. As much as I love you, you're a handful."

Only a handful? asked Rosanth in a mock-offended tone. What am I, a fire-lizard?

Seanni's chuckle changed to a laugh that threatened to dislodge Curo, who was sleeping on her shoulder. The tiny green fire-lizard opened one eye that swirled with red and gray, gave an annoyed cheep, then went back to sleep.

"You know what I mean," Seanni said with a roll of her eyes. She dipped the rag back into the oil again and began to work on a patchy area on Rosanth's left foreleg. But perhaps the gold really didn't understand. Though smart and emphatic, dragons couldn't always understand what was going on inside their rider's mind. "I don't know if we have enough of a staff capable of caring for so many dragons. As much as I love you, you and the others eat so many herdbeasts that we have a hard time convincing the Holds to send us tithes," she said, rubbing vigorously, "which as a Weyrhold, we're not supposed to need. And as much as I love my children...I don't know. I don't know if they're old enough to understand what Impressing a dragon means." She stopped and Rosanth nudged her appreciatively. "There. All done."

Thank you, said Rosanth, stretching and yawning. She looked at her rider, jewel-like eyes swirling with shades of blues and greens. I know you'll do the right thing. Not all people have the temperament to be dragonriders. But even dragons know when to let go of their children and let them be themselves. Present them at the next hatching if they're old enough. The dragons will decide.

Every time Seanni thought that her dragon couldn't possibly be smart enough to understand the problems that plagued her thoughts, Rosanth came up with something like this. She smiled tenderly and leaned against the gold's warm hide. "Thank you," she said, feeling her eyes fill up with tears. "Thank you for your faith in me."

then.
seann, the newcomer, did not sword fight like kiiron. myra, in the past couple of years, had picked up sword fighting and routinely beat kiiron as much as he beat her. but seann was proving to be a challenge.

when kiiron taught her, myra knew he taught her proper techniques, and pre-made attack sequences. with seann as her opponent, she had no idea what his next move would be - and seann faught dirty, something kiiron never did. this gave myra a chance to fight dirty as well, and she was currently loving it.

she and seann broke apart, circling each other. neither had beat the other yet, and myra knew the respect in seann's eyes was mirrored in hers. he attacked first. myra blocked his strike and risked unbalancing her self to kick seann hard in the knee. her foot connected, and he grunted and stumbled back. myra scooped down to the ground to grab a fistful of dirt and threw it in his face. as he coughed and backed away, she disarmed, but he ducked and rolled out of the way of her strike.

she ducked his backhanded punch and whirled around, her stick blocking his from hitting her. she gritted her teeth as he pushed hers down and she held her ground. finally seann broke away and the two were circling each other again. "it's smart, what you did with the dirt." seann said. "just be quicker next time."

myra didn't waste her breath with an answer and lunged towards him. he blocked her strike and used his free hand to swing a punch at myra. it connected with her shoulder and threw the elf off balance just enough for seann to trip her and level his stick at her throat. "i win."
- seann and myra swordfighting
- kiiron finally talks, myra finally answers

now.
- that dream...
- the weres returning in the morning

Spring
Spring is here! During the spring, birthings will be smooth and the chances of mothers or children dying during birth will drop dramatically. There is also a higher chance of catching more prey or finding new people and skilled animals looking for shelter, and the odds of sickness will drop.

The first melt has begun, and plants will be pushing their way out into the sunlight. There is a new warmth in the air and villagers will be relieved to know that prey will soon return to their territories. However, beware of flooding rivers and plains, as the rains can be heavy.

Announcements
Spring will last until April this time, to let people catch up! Additionally, I will be replying to ilhdc7's villagers.
