Come the morning after the Crom trade fair, the Reaches buzzes with news. What happened? Who said what? How did-- how did six dragons land in the bowl in the depths of the night, lead by Shanlee and Kaylith, laden with approximately one-third of a decent tithe? Better late than never... Few people were still up to see the arrival of Telgar's charity or watch it being unloaded, just a few people who caught dark glimpses of Shanlee, N'thei, and the dragon-caravan carting supplies to the inner Weyr.

Over breakfast, by lunch, through dinner, tongues wagged. The Weyrleaders of High Reaches and Telgar met at Crom; Gay and E'tyn left the trade fair in high tempers; Teonath broadcast to any dragons listening that a portion of the Crom tithe was given back; and then what? Something about High Reaches taking Telgar's charity, about tempers, about inter-Weyr relations taking a turn for the worse. At the end of the day, what does it matter? Reaches folk are warmer, and that's where it ends. Right?

Cromcoal and llama wool are cold comfort for damaged dignity.
