Shay strode through the Weyr, wondering where all the others had gone. Reluctantly giving up for now, she made her way to the dining hall. She spied the Weyrleaders talking at a table near the back, and guessed what they were speaking of. Better not disturb them, she thought.

{{I do not see any problem in it, Shay. It must be natural.}}
~~I agree. It's only that something of the like hasn't happened since last Pass.~~
{{Last Pass... That's a long time ago. So perhaps it is people who have grown prudish?}}
~~ I think you must be right. Anyhow, I wonder where everyone else is?~~
{{Gone, most probably.}}
~~Gone? To where?~~
{{I know not. But many, I cannot find them. It is as if they have disappeared.}}

Shay gave an involuntary shiver. 'Disappeared...' She spoke into the silence, and her own voice nearly spooked her. To take her mind off the emptiness of the Weyr, Shay entered the kitchens in search of food. She found only a few lone meatrolls and a loaf of bred. Sighing deeply at this, another sign of the Weyr's deserted state, she headed to a table to the opposite side of the room as the Weyrleaders.

Lyranth spoke up suddenly, {{Lirth is speaking to me.}}
~~Lirth? What about?~~
{{He says Sh'muel tells him Telgar has no Weyrwoman.}}
~~So?~~
{{Sh'muel said you should be.}}
~~I always said he was crazy.~~
{{No, you didn't. You always said he was cute. And shy. Never crazy.}}
~~Aren't dragon's supposed to have short term memories?~~
{{Perhaps we are, but I remember that, if only because of repetition.}}
~~What's that supposed to mean?...~~

Before Lyranth had a chance to answer, someone approached Shay's table... [[Jump in, anybody!]]
