Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

L'taaaaaaaaai! Tiatiath shrieked as she bounced on the spot, dancing impatiently while all around, dragons began the tell-tale task of humming excitedly: the eggs were preparing to Hatch! "Collect the Candidates, you crazy girl!" L'tai laughed, giving his dragon's nose a solid shove out of the way as he came bouncing and skipping out of the kitchens, grinning happily and laughing at the sight of some of the confused looking Searched. They'd all been told what Humming meant, but clearly some of them were rather befuddled by the actual event!
Hatching, hatching hatching! Tiatiath sung, not really restricting her enthusiastic voice to just the candidates; anyone within the area could hear her excited comments. No, you can’t go on the sands yet! She laughed, reaching out to nose against an excited looking candidate. Baths first! You all stink! Which was probably a pretty relevant remark, considering the late summer heat, heavy muggy nature of the day, and the fact that the candidates had been helping wash the dragons in R’nya’s wing, the non-murderous golds, and the assorted older Weyrlings.
After they had bathed, each Candidate was forced to walk past a laughing Tiatiath who would sniff them all dramatically and either send them back to scrub some more, or allow them entrance into the Hatching Sands. As each of them passed her test, L’tai directed the boys left or right, so that each of the white-robed individuals formed a loose circle around the twenty-nine eggs. It was a large group – sixty four candidates – but L’tai was very pleased; it would give the dragonets the best possible choice for a lifemate, and should (hopefully!) mean that there would be no deaths and, if they were lucky, there wouldn’t be too many maulings.
Of course, once the first few Searched had caught sight of some of those who had been mauled in the past, notably Indivara, there had been a lot less talking during his classes instructing on Sands behaviour!
Good luck! Remember what we’ve said and you’ll be fine!
Okay, so everyone was bathing dragons that morning lol. Hopefully no one had any threads doing otherwise hahaha. It’s not a big deal, but it struck me as a fun way to occupy everyone, and with over sixty assistants, bathing the Weyr’s wing and weyrlings should have been pretty entertaining!
Hatching post will be up in a second XD Actually, I'll let people get a post up first XD
Everyone is present and accounted for when the first egg cracks!
