Ulliendis gave a shrug as he watched Rhamnus start prepping to make cookies. It was fascinating that the man was even doing that step on his own instead of asking a drudge to do it. But given there would be toxins involved, perhaps that was wise in the end. Besides, maybe the healer also liked baking in his spare time. Who was he to judge? “I’m actually surprised more people aren’t pointing at brownriders. I’ve only been here a few months and I’ve picked up some strings of conversations that show some still aren’t happy with their new place in life.”
From what his studying had shown him, brownriders typically seemed to be rather jealous and cranky sorts. They were so close to being a special shiny hide but missed out on any real power. And then all that nasty business down in Katila ended up earning brownriders what seemed to be a permanent mistrust where they weren’t even allowed Weyrsecond anymore. All because of one man, really. Ulliendis was sure there were others that helped add to the demotion but it had to have inspired a lot of rage and a desire for payback in at least one person.
“It’s possible that some of the goldriders that were attacked and survived or had their bronzerider mates take the hit are the ones in on it. What better way to have eyes directed elsewhere? Easy to believe goldriders are just as sick of the crap bronzeriders pull.” Maybe some didn’t even like their mates or were mated via their dragons. He needed to work on the theory a bit more but he felt it was a strong one overall and Rhamnus easily bought into it as well.
