Delta Weyr is the youngest and smallest of Pern's Dragonweyrs. It was founded on the Southern continent at the end of the Fifth Pass, near lands especially rich in farmland, fish, and ore. The Weyr at first grew slowly but steadily, reveling in the Threadless Interval at first, but later growing bored with inactivity and concerned as the expected end of the Interval came and went, with no sign of their ancient enemy on the horizon despite the baleful presence of the Red Star still in the skies. The Fifth Pass is late, and the voices raised in doubt grow louder and more numerous. Most riders remain convinced that Thread will return--but where? When? Meantime, the Weyrleadership is faltering, the senior goldrider and the bronze who flew her clinging with all their might to power they do not truly deserve. Discipline has grown lax, and those who would raise their voices in dissent have soon learned better from the examples made of those who dared before. The Weyr is unprepared.
