Brightfield
It's been 2000 years since AIVAS and Pern is a different place. Thread has returned, leaving the northern continent still recouperating even after two hundred years, and the dragonriders are constrained to the Southern continent as the Northern Weyrs have been taken over by the north and turned into cities. It's of no matter, however, as the dragonriders have made do.
Palisade
Welcome to Palisade Weyr, a sea port and the major center of trade for the Southern Continent. The dragonriders here work not only to fight thread, but also work to keep the flow of trade moving. Living on the sea has it's disadvantages though, and you will not find a traditional Weyr Sands here. You'll not find any in fact, a fact that does not seem to bother the sea weyr at all. Without candidates to worry about, they can focus more on importing and exporting and taking care of those pesky pirates that show up every now and again.
Barrier
Welcome to Barrier, located just south of the Eastern Barrier Mountain Range in a convenient bend in a canyon river. While lacking proper sands as well, they have a place to store the eggs that have been heated since the Weyr's foundation by none other than the Whers that were thought to be rather useless for anything but mining and guarding. Not only does this weyr hold the answer to dragon-kin's futures, but is also a mine hold as well, servicing the mine craft and earning their keep working in the mountain ranges looking for precious metals, stones, and natural resources that power the northern inventions that were transplanted south at the return of Thread.
Welcome to Brightfield
With the return of Thread eminent, where will your loyalties lie?
