| The tent village in the Bowl, where the convicts have been living, has finally been packed up and moved out. Not because the convicts have gone home - oh no, there are still no star stones and the bowl is still distinctly a mess - but because the amount of snow in the bowl has made continued habitation there downright impossible. Initial plans were apparently to stow them all in the 'hole in the bowl' that they've been working on, but there's far from enough room for them there, and so, a good half of them have now been packed into empty weyrs. After all, they can't come and go without a dragonrider: it's perfect for keeping them secure. Of course, for the riders now assigned to ferrying duty? The grumbling is /intense/. --- Snowdrift has a new Wingsecond, the gossips report, with some surprise. Didn't Mielline always seem utterly content with just the one? And why C'mryn, specifically? More than one person has wondered whether it all leads back to the Weyrleader... wasn't C'mryn his mentor, once upon a time? Is K'del feeling comfortable enough, since his reconfirmation, to start interfering in other people's business? As yet, no one is saying. --- Further afield, riders might report that their duty list has included rather more time in the High Reaches Hold area than would usually be so - certainly, more time than any other area is getting. Given that the repairs after the meteor strikes have all been complicated, and anyway, there's too much snow for that kind of activity, now, it all seems just a little strange. Moreover, most of the work seems to be busy work: carrying supplies, messages from one potholed to another, and on one or two memorable occasions, even outright chores like chopping wood and cleaning pens. No doubt that is why instructions on these visits have been for riders to make themselves useful however they're needed... but it's all a bit strange, isn't it? Outright demeaning, even. To make matters even worse, a good number of holders, particularly those around the Balen area, seem outright dismissive of the riders. Some might even hear mutterings about weyrfolk being 'untrustworthy'... what's that all about? |
