“Sort of,” Nerreh said tilting his head in thought, “Fort recently started letting Candidates apprentice at the Healer Hall. They worked out some sort of arrangement, I don’t know the details. But they don’t join the Hall, they’re still weyrfolk and are supposed to come back. They’re just getting some training, as I understand it. Never heard of anyone joining any other Hall. Most ‘brats are dead set on Impressing, after all.” He shrugged. The thought of leaving the Weyr had never seriously occurred to him. Sometimes right after the Flight and after the Hatching Nerreh would think maybe it would be easier to just leave the Weyrs, but he never would have actually done it. Besides, he had Faxxonth at that point anyway. It had always been more like going down to Katila and making a hut in the jungle and hiding from everyone, not going and learning a craft.

“I have two answers to that,” he grinned. “First is no, Impressing a dragon does not make you become a sex fiend. For the most part, dragons aren’t sex fiends. I mean, some gold only Rise every couple turns, that’s like having sex once every two turns. Hardly a constant, insatiable lust, that. And plenty of people who aren’t dragonriders do some pretty kinky shit, so it can’t be the dragon making them like that. But…” Nerreh trailed off, emphasizing the word and smirking at Caz, “You ever heard about how dragon Flights work?”
