Dark Fort Weyr:- Reward Offered... From: "Laura Walker" <shewhoguards@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2006 14:48:44 +0000 Searching for a new and different way to introduce a Candidate? Why not have them try to fake being a HAD? The Weyrleaders at Dark Fort are on the hunt for a Hears All - though Faranth knows what uses they intend to put one to if they actually locate one. They've made it known that at the Midsummer Gather they will give a reward of 20 marks for anyone supplying information leading to the location of a Hears All. Twenty marks is an awful lot of money - enough to tempt many poor Trader and Holder parents into just trying to fake their kids into acceptance, or *hoping* their child just might be hearing dragons rather than an imaginary friend. Of course it won't be that simple - anyone claiming such powers will be tested by dragons - but isn't it tempting to just try to bribe or fake your way into receiving those twenty marks? And with Eggs due on the Sands, those boys of an appropriate age who try are unlikely to just be turned away. Certainly they won't receive that longed-for twenty mark reward, but they may get a chance to Stand and try for that dragon lifemate. Will the Weyrleaders find their HAD, and what do they intend to do if they do? With all the fun and excitement of a Gather already buzzing around - stalls, a runner race, the Harper Open and much much more - anything could happen. The only way to find out is come and watch. http://www.darkfort.co.uk darkfort-subscribe@yahoogroups.com Dark Fort:- Where they even try to tap dragon conversations. Up
