Subject: Mnementh, hearing the blue's plea, swerves out of formation. . .
In reply to: Zythara and Rieth 's message, "~Trouble~" on 12:56:17 08/13/01 Mon

T'kaal is startled, but he sees immediately the problem. Mnementh calls down to the weyrlings' dragons, *Numbweed! READY THE NUMBWEED!* The bronze swoops under Rieth, letting the blue land carefully on his back, just across his wings. He slowly makes his way down to the ground, trying to ignore Rieth's squeals of pain. Finally finding them unbearable, he snaps to T'kaal, Tell his rider to help him with the pain! ~She, too, is heavily scored, m'love.~ Mnementh casts a glance to his back and sees Zythara lying comatose. He agrees grudgingly with his rider. All right. . . Have you the numbweed? he inquires curtly of those dragons on the ground. Mnementh makes a gentle landing, keeping his wings extended, as Rieth is still stretched out upon them. T'kaal dismounts, calling Z'vi and Shay over. The two weyrlings clamber up to Rieth and help the rider out of her riding straps. Shay blinks sweat from her eyes, helping Z'vi and the Weyrleader to carry Zythara down from Mnementh's gargantuan self. The three lay her down on a soft, grassy spot and wave the weyrlings with numbweed over. "Just slather it all over. We'll have to take care of the dragon on top of Mnemy," T'kaal orders. He strides over to his dragon, accepting a pot of numbweed before clambering up to Rieth. *Try and help your dragon. . . if you can hear me,* Mnementh tells Zythara. The numbweed must be taking effect by now. T'kaal gently rubs numbweed into the blue's Threadscores, clucking at the severity of the wounds. Such small numbers. . . and they hoped to last the entire Fall? Oy. T'kaal smiles grimly as he dabs the last drop of numbweed onto Rieth's Scores. "There! That's about done it. Now, you just rest up. . ." T'kaal casts a quizzical glance at Mnementh. How was he to get back up in the sky if Mnementh was a bed for Rieth? THe bronze gently tips a wing down, carefully letting Rieth slide down his wing and onto a soft cushion of grass. *Watch them both!* he orders the weyrlings, before gesturing to T'kaal to mount up. The Weyrleader obeys his dragon, and the two are soon back in the sky, flaming Thread. T'kaal now holds doubts, however, about the success rate possible for such a foolhardy venture. Where was Fort? Benden, Igen, and Ista were here. . . if you counted Ista. Well, the weyrlings were helpful, but were the wings enough to conquer this Fall?
