... As the 12th turn of the 8th pass drew to a close, the weyrfolk of Evergen had reason to celebrate; their queens were rising regularly and clutching well, their relationship with nearby Carcara Hold was good, and despite the hardships of recent turns, the Weyr had endured. The proud riders and dragons of Evergen took to the skies as always to fight their ancient enemy, searing thread as it fell.
One night, however, everything changed. While the Weyr slept peacefully, chaos was stirring about the Red Star. A massive object collided with the stray planet, sending it careening out of its usual orbit. None know for sure what hit the Star or how large it really was... only that it could be seen by the watchdragon and his rider. Initially, no one was informed about the strange occurance. No one felt it significant.
The real, lasting effects only became clear several days later when thread fell wrong. Suddenly, terribly, thread came at any time of day or night and in any place...
Welcome to Evergen Weyr. The world of Pern has been changed forever; gone are the days of long-anticipated threadfall. Thread can now come at any time, and as a result, the dragonriders and their famed mounts are more important than ever. Scouting parties must patrol constantly, looking for any sign of impending thread. Additionally, the extra presence of the riders around the Hold is causing tension between Evergen and Carcara.
