Meraki Weyr's next clutch cycle kicks off with a bang! The announcement and impending arrival of a new weyrwoman— elected by the council, shunning the weyr's current juniors, to bring some order after four dragons climbed the stands at their last hatching and Gold Zemirath's maiden clutch resulted in Pern's smallest dragons to date, many of which were too small to ride or boasted anomalies that hindered their ability to fly —spurs Garnet Pratibhath to take to the skies and steal away attention she feels she deserves. The very raucous flight ends when she chooses Garnet* Solnith as her mate! The candidates will have to endure another round of dad jokes, but this makes him the first dragon in site history to sire a clutch with two different mothers! He is also a site-hatched dragon himself, coming from Gold Nirath's first clutch onscreen 6 turns ago
Our new weyrwoman, the lovely Brown* Karradith, ends her flight tomorrow and then the voting starts to determine who will lead us until she rises again! And perhaps the two queens will share the sands with a few other mothers as well, we won't know for a couple more weeks yet :3c
