| Gathers are always a time for drama of some sort, though normally it is confined to drunken fumblings behind trees, and fights over just whose girlfriend someone is. Fort's Turnover gather had all the drama, but a rather unexpected type. When a cry of 'thief' went up directed at a certain bronzeriding weyrling it was only the beginning of the oddness. Unsuspectingly W'ton had passed a fake mark to a weaver in payment, and she was none too pleased. As Hattie defended him she found herself accused as well, though the appearance of several Hold guards resulted in them both eventually being declared free from further fake coinage though under instructions to think hard on where they had been and what they had bought. As investigations spread throughout the gather another six merchants were found to have been paid the fake beastcraft marks, with a further nine gather-goers having fakes in varying denominations that they all swore had been given as change. One even claimed to have been given the mark at a previous gather. Where the marks came from is unknown, but several people found themselves leaving the gather far poorer than when they arrived. |
