Fall is just starting to turn the air chilly. The trees are beginning to change colors as the nights slowly grow colder and longer. As time marches towards winter, frost will begin to appear in the mornings and the lake will slowly start freezing over. Predictions say this will be a hard winter, which is a good thing, Thread will not ravage the surface this winter but instead fall as harmless black dust onto the ground.
Threadfall:
Falling once or twice a week, the menace has returned to plague Telgar.
The Red Star:
Still visible it has reached the midway point for the pass.
The Weyrs:
Telgar is officially open for business. The Weyr is slowly filling up with riders and personnel and will be taking on its new responsibilities within the month. A council of Goldriders and Wingleaders rule the Weyr until such time as the first Mating Flight takes place and determines who the Weyrwoman and her consort will be.
The College:
Classes have resumed for the year at Fort Hold. With Weyrs going on search for the year's Candidate base, the teachers are not happy. Rumor has it they are even turning some Weyrs' dragons away.
The Holds:
Still struggling, the people living in the Holds are hoping for a break from the monotonous work day while still going about their usual task of trying to improve their surroundings and quality of life.
OOC News:
TELGAR IS OFFICIALLY OPEN FOR CHARACTER CREATION!

The Bathing Pools The communal bathing area for the weyr. It is where members of both sexes and all social classes come to bathe. A total of two big pools, one is room temperature while the other is heated by the dormant volcano core. Slightly sulfuric smelling, new residents learn to ignore it quickly as it is such a luxury to use. The works staff make sure the supply of soapsand and fluffy towels never runs low.
