Author: Wistrinia, D'marn & Baran
Subject: Dinner?

The Weyrwoman and D'marn entered the smaller of the Dining Room's two areas. It was where normal meals were taken when a formal event did not occur.

Trinia could have well imagined how the Great Hall would look all decked out for a Gather/Hatching Feast. The tall tapers and walls hung with rich tapestries.
There certainly would be a event to plan very, very soon.

She let D'marn poke his head into the kitchen where he heard some low singing and the happy twirts of a flit.

"Baran?"

Trinia smiled as she heard the Weyr's head cook respond.

"My lord, D'marn."

"See you have a new apprentice or two. What are their names?"

"Fram is my scarlet and Yuri is my bronze. There is news of a flit Clutch having been laid at the cove. Perhaps you might want to go get one?"

"I think not. I have enough to do without such luxuries."
D'marn said affectionately. He must have attracted one of them.
"If it is not too much trouble, the Weyrwoman and I would like some dinner if there is any left."

"Yes, oh yes, there is! How did the Flight go?"

"We have a new Weyrleader."

"You?!"

"Surely not. A gallant brown named Basuth flew Issinth and our new leader of the Weyr is D'rian. Has he been by?"

"You two are only the first in that account, m'lord."

"Enough of m'lord, Baran. A lord is something I'm not."

"You were, at Gieffe Hold."

"Banished and called 'bastard'."
D'marn's voice became clipped.

"My apologies, I shouldn't have mentioned. I'll bring out tonight's dinner to you both shortly. No, I have not seen this D'rian."

"Thank you, Baran."

Trinia looked up as D'marn strode from the kitchen and sat beside her.
"Seems our new Weyrleader hasn't been spied yet?"

D'marn's blue eyes flickered.
"No, I take not."

They waited for their dinner to arrive.
