Zyrion Hold
After the Thread was defeated, dragons were no longer needed in the world of Pern. Their numbers began to slowly diminish as well as the clutch sizes. Zyrion Weyr was created for all the rest of the dragons and their riders to live in peace. The clutches began to get smaller and smaller with fewer dragons the dragonriders were sure their days were numbered.
50 turns had passed and they were down to one clutching Queen Palyth. When she began her Rise, everyone was surprised that a Brown caught her. Disappointed of this, the Weyr folk did now expect a big clutch. When all the eggs were laid everyone was even more surprised of there being three huge eggs surrounded by at least another 20 eggs. The three eggs all had a color to them: Gold, Silver, and Ruby. The riders had no idea what to think of the other two colored eggs.
As the days passed everyone was excited for the hatching. They grew more nervous as time seemed to pass slowly. When the day arrived and the dragons were humming everyone rushed to watch. Eggs slowly began to crack, the usual colors came out, but the biggest shocker was among these colors there were Pink, Black, and Purple. Everyone's eyes stared at the three remaining eggs. As the eggs slowly began to wobble the first one out was the Golden Queen. Then followed a Ruby and Silver both impressing to girls.
Two turns passed, and everyone slowly began to become use to the unusual colors. What they were not ready for was the Ruby rising before the Gold and then the Silver rising after the Gold. Two new Queens...Three clutching queens. What did that mean for Pern?
Over 100 turns have passed since the new colors have arrived. Thread has just begun to start again giving the dragons their purpose once more.
Gold Wrath has just laid a new clutch in the sands, but will not let anyone close to see the eggs. Could it be there is another Queen? And if so that would mean a New Weyr must be found soon.
