The gold dragon landed on the ground with a loud thump. Her rider almost fell off, as they had decided to fly the long way without going between, to get to know the route and the hold. [Hold on tight, little one.] This was a bit ironic, as Kyriniath was one of the smallest gold dragons ever known, but her rider didn't comment on it. >How is everybody?< [None of them have complained yet, not even those carrying a candidate.] >It was a good idea to let some dragons carry the candidates' stuff and others carry the candidates<, Ranea complimented her dragon. >I just hope you'll Rise soon, so we won't disappoint anyone or be told to let another gold become queen.< [Mh hm] was the cryptic answer.

Ranea looked around. "This place is great!" she couldn't help saying. It was fantastic to be here; and even more fantastic to know that she would control and organise this grand Weyr. So far she would have to do it by herself, as she had no Weyrleader yet.
She then turned around and looked back at her fellow Riders, landing all around in the Weyr...

[I like this place so far.] Came the voice of Taviath in M'helan's mind. <I think I like it already as well!> "Brecka! Come here!" demanded M'helan, and a young girl of sixteen turns unwillingly walked towards the Bronzerider. "Sir?" She asked of her 'elder' who was only twenty-nine turns. She thought him great, of course, since he had impressed a Bronze. She favored Taviath, for he nudged her in greeting everytime he saw her. M'helan smiled and handed her a bag that had been strapped to Taviath's riding straps by a leather thong. Taviath lifted his great forarm so that M'helan could hoist himself up to his back with one leap. He clambered up to his dragon's neckridge and untied the last bag and tossed it down to Brecka. Brecka caught it and a grunt escaped her lips. She then heard a strange twittering sound...a twittering of anger. 'Oh no....' She thought as a Brown firelizard rushed out of the sky, pelting towards her. At the last second she stepped out of the way, causing the Brown to almost nose-dive into the ground. He pulled up in time and curved in the air, slowing down to land on Brecka's shoulder. By this time, Brecka's pounding heart had ceased trying to escape her chest. "Don't...do...that, Skitts!" Brecka said and the firelizard crooned a soft, hurt croon. She smiled and scratched his eyeridges and the firelizard became happy once more. M'helan jumped to the ground, and chuckled once he was standing up strait. "Well, this is it! Nice isn't it?" M'helan asked Brecka, who nodded in agreement, thoroughly amazed.

Ky turned around to eye the bronze dragon. He was just one of those who would follow her, when she Rised. She was still trying to judge him...would he stand a chance? >He's stubborn, that's for sure,< Ranea noted, as she had heard her dragon's thoughts. [Very. He insisted on carrying her bags, even though he didn't have to.] Ranea glanced at her dragon. She sometimes sounded so jealous of everybody getting close to the male dragons. "Are you okay, Brecka?" Ranea called out. Rubin appeared with a happy sound next to her: *Skitts trying to escape Rubin* Ranea sighed. >Ask Taviath.< [How are people, Taviath?] Ranea considered nominating Taviath for Wingleader. She could decide who should be. But first they'd need to form wings. Then she eyed Vameal. He didn't make her hopes turn high. "Yes, I happen to be the Weyrwoman."

[Everything is going great.] Taviath said, his tone was caring, making sure his rider and friend were safe on the journey. He looked down at Brecka who waved to the Weyrwoman. "I'm fine!" came Brecka's voice and she looked at Skitts who had lept off her shoulder and was in the air, soaring above his owner. He circled up until he was above Taviath's head, here he hovered and landed ever so softly between the dragon's headnobs, as not to disturb him. M'helan began to proudly stride over to the Weyrwoman. Upon reaching her, he took a short and swift bow. "Good day, I believe everything is going well with everyone." He said, watching a few dragons burst from between(NPC).

Luciana looked around the Weyr in wonder. She, like the rest of the group, had never been to Tkana before this time. She was just as amazed as the rest of them. The dragon she'd rode in on, a good-sized brown, nudged her forward gently. She went off to find some of the other candidates.

Not too far away, Halem happily got off the green he'd ridden in on. It had been a rather jarring flight; the rider & dragon having decided to either show off or try to kill him. Either way, he was relieved to be back on solid ground. He went to get his things from the dragons carrying in the items.

Ranea looked confused on Vameal, she never had Searched anybody. Golds couldn't even Search! She had to find somebody to take care of that guy.
Then she turned her attention to M'helan. "That's great. I hope everybody is okay; it is a long flight to here after all." She looked at Kyriniath. "And so far all the dragons I've seen seem to be fine. We're lucky that we set off some time before Thread. We will have time to organise ourselves first. And hopefully time for a Rise." She sighed, the burdens were heavy. "Bronzerider, you seem to have time. Get your own candidate and the confused one settled in the barracks, please. And then choose a cave. In the same moment, Rubin disappeared. "I have already chosen my room. Or rather...Rubin has chosen it. The biggest one, closest to the Council room." [I hope other bronzes will come soon,] Ky noted to Taviath. >Stop trying to tease him!<

Taviath snorted and Skitts lept off his head and flew down to Brecka, landing on her shoulder once more. Tavaith lept off of the ground, showing off his wing spand and his well muscled build to his Queen in hopes of impressing her. He bellowed as his facet eyes spotted his weyr. He backwinged and landed on the ledge with ease. [It's perfect.] He said to his rider who replied, <Good.>

"Will do, Weyrwoman." M'helan said, "You two, follow me now." He said and headed off towards the barracks. Brecka snatched up her bags and headed off after M'helan, hoping the other Candidate would follow her and M'helan.

Brecka nodded, "Hi." she said and looked at M'helan, who was leading them down into a passage and into a hallway that ended and split into the left and right directions. He grabbed a chart off of the wall and read it, "Ok, Vameal, you are in Barracks Room D-4 which is to the left." He said, pointing down the left hallway. "If you go strait down this hall and take the first left off of that hall it will be the first room on your left." He said and M'helan looked at Brecka, "Brecka...you're in Barracks Room A-2 which is in the right hallway, second room on your right." Pointing down the hall. Both halls were alight with bright glows, making the halls seem rather inviting rather than creepy.

Ky glanced at Taviath and then looked in the opposite direction. She was going to be hard to catch!
Ranea eyed the two lonely candidates. "Hey, you two!" She thought for a moment. "Luciana! Halem! Hurry up and follow M'helan now!" She needed all the candidates to go to the barracks as soon as possible. That way, they wouldn't get in her way.
[Tell M'helan to wait for the candidates to catch up with him] Ky told Taviath.

The two did as they were told, hustling to catch up with the other two candidates and the Bronzerider. Halem reached them first, and took a few moments to catch his breath as he walked with them. Luciana joined them a little bit later, having to gather her things first.

M'helan looked at Halem, "You must be Halem." he said and looked down at the chart. "You are in Barracks Room B-1. Take the left hall, and your room is the first on the right, since A's are on the left." M'helan saw Luciana come in. "Ah! Luciana, your room is A-3, right next to Brecka's." M'helan said, watching Brecka stop and wait for Luciana.

With a loud thump the thin figure that was Freddy fell over, his luggage his father had insisting on him taking weighing more then the CANDIDATE himself. "Glancing up at the gold rider he managed to stagger to his feet and ask quietly, "Pardon me madam, but could you tell me where the barracks are?" he asked with a slightly stiff bow of respect, "If you're to busy I'm sure I could ask somebody else." He muttered with a slightly apologetic tone to his voice.

Ranea looked up from loosening her bags from Kyriniath's back. "Oh. You're...Fredda?" she asked, not sure if she got the name right. They had a lot of candidates with them, and she was glad. "The candidate barracks are down there." She let the bags fall to the ground and Ky grabbed them with her front legs and flew to their room. "I'll let one of our riders know that you're on your way." I hope he has nothing better to do, she thought to herself. Oh well. As Ky said, males were born to be used by women. Ranea wasn't entirely sure that she agreed. >Tell M'helan.< [Taviath, make sure your Rider stays at the barracks for few days. Just until we get settled.] Then the dragon made the rumbling which indicated laughter. "And in future, if you need something, you'll have to ask the one who Searched you. Until we get settled. I hope that is okay with you." She smiled at the boy.

[Will do.] Tavaith replied, relaying the message to his rider. >Ok, that works. I think I just will show up early in the morning and take everyone down here. I am definately not sleeping in here.< M'helan said, his eyes looking up from the papers to see if he could see another Candidate coming down the hall yet.

"Thank you, and will do." Freddt answered, ingnoring the slightly mess up of his, name, "I shall head down there now." He told nobody in particalar before headed down towards the barracks...., (continued in other forum.)
