Chap. 191 Re-organizational chaos He had accompanied M’rvin, his Weyrleader, to Landing, with two goals in mind: to learn more about the smanda that he and G’alin had captured, and to check in with the library to see what new treasures had been printed. He also had several field notebooks to turn in, having painstakingly…

Chap. 190 Return to Far Nowhere Once again, he had the most disturbing feeling of being lost. Except that, no, he had been here before. The hut was still there, and the sedges. There was, however, a fundamental change that astonished him. G’alin stood, hands on hips, his expression a mix of puzzlement and doubt.…

Chap. 189 The Unprepared “I admit that I just learned of this mission this morning,” K’ndar said to the two dragonriders in front of him, “but, it seems to me you both have been severely under informed as to what the goal is.” He had met them at Landing’s dragon meadow. D’arad, the blue rider,…

Chap.188 They want a WHAT? “Are they joking? Have they had a bit too much fellis? Those things nearly killed my fire lizard,” K’ndar said, shocked.

I’ve never been there, but I do have the dragonstone coordinates of the Hold that Francie’s horse came from, I thought we’d start there. But it wasn’t.…

Chap. 185 The Photographer Raventh was frolicking in the sea, with a cloud of fire lizards alternately playing or diving for the fish his antics scared up. K’ndar sat amidst the rocks, watching. He had no desire to get into the water with his dragon. It was cold, and he didn’t care for swimming at…

Chap. 184 The Gift Siskin raised his head from his curled position on “his” shelf. Then, with a chirp, he flew out of the weyr. Where is he going? Out to do his business? K’ndar asked. He was grateful that fire lizards, like dragons, were housebroken. No! It’s a green fire lizard, wearing a message…

Chap. 183 Reconciliation Francie’s advice stuck in his head. “She’s got something going on, K’ndar. The only way you can solve this issue with Lindea, IF you want to solve it, is to talk to her. If she doesn’t want to talk, there’s not much you can do to force her to do so. If…
