| Dawn of day 22, month 9, just as moonlight was giving way to sunlight, Elaruth rose in a sudden flight with no prior warning of her being proddy at all, though some may have noticed a very faint glow to her hide the evening before. Certainly nothing had seemed different about Hattie, who is usually left a distracted shadow of her capable self, and rather than maintain her usual watch over her Weyr and its bronzes and browns, Elaruth spent most hours of the days before settled on her ledge and cuddling with Bijedth whenever the opportunity presented itself. Looking back, perhaps it's no surprise that it was Bijedth who caught her for the fifth time, for, this once, the senior queen seemed to have favoured him from the start. The /whys/ of it all being so out of nowhere are just beginning to be contemplated, but one suggestion being made is that it's Eliyaveith's failure to produce a clutch that has led her dam to instinctively try and 'fix' things. Recent queens of the Fortian line may rise frequently, but rarely, if ever, so without warning, and for a queen who normally displays all the signs of a gold soon to rise, Elaruth's behaviour is not in keeping with her usual self. Are Eliyaveith's failure to produce eggs and Elaruth's out of the blue flight signs that something is wrong with Fort's queens? At least the flight brings no political change with it, and the Weyrleaders are most definitely still Weyrleaders. |
