Something has attacked a guard at the jungle’s edge, and taken several herdbeasts only a few nights later! Nightwatch patrol got to him in time to save his life, but what or who left the man bleeding and unconscious? Whers will be doubling their watches along the feeding pens to try and keep these intruders out and the Weyr safe, but without a definitive answer, it will be difficult to really know what to look for. If the attacks continue, a hunting party will foray into the jungle in the hopes of tracking down the menace. Anyone with information or hunting experience is urged to step forward and offer their services. Firelizard owners and those bonded to whers are especially welcome, as the dragons of the Weyr are too large to join in the sortie.

In other news, we’re opening up a gossip section of the news posts to anyone who has something juicy to remark on. Weyrleader’s joining in on secret meetings? Juicy. Flitters acting strangely biddable? They’re planning a takeover! What are these mysterious attacks about, mutant hamsters? Anything and everything goes, so keep your ears peeled for funny stories, amusing quips, or Healers jumping into beds with candidates. In that vein, a new contest is opening! Best piece of imagined or not gossip or short story PM’d to Rouxy will win a super secret prize, which is perfect for super secret gossip! All gossip and stories will be posted anonymously in the next news post that goes up after Saturday, the 7th of August, which is when the contest will close. That’s about two and a half weeks worth of time to enter, so hop to!
Also, to our lovely greenriders, strap your boots on, ‘cause we’re starting our Flight schedule. We’re starting off with one green Flight a month, so talk to Rouxy if you’d like to see your dragon go up. We’ll set up the date and announce it so all our males can get in line. When we get a few more greens, and or our weyrlings mature, we’ll change it to two or three Flights a month, and every green will be able to rise every 2-3 real life months, depending on availability and who wants to go. Location, winner etc is chosen by the green in question, and feel free to work out any twisty or mini-plot fun-ness with each other.
