In reply to: Kyssandra-Sauth 's message, "-^-" on 20:00:33 05/22/02 Wed

*Another cold smile is her only response. Then, she nods to Kyssandra. "You're right, my flits wouldn't disobey two angry dragons. But can Sauth and Aosuth intimidate over a distance? My flits would first arrive, and within seconds, no doubt, they'd be scared off - but they would have the image, the coordinates." Grey eyes glance outside, at the brown and green. Then, sadly, the Weyrlady shakes her head. "You shame yourselves," she murmurs quietly, not really meaning to speak aloud. To deprive dragons of their age-old duty of fighting Thread? To deny them basic Weyr care, oil and baths and a proper couch to sleep in? Sure, oil is readily obtained in small amounts for fire lizards, but the amount needed to regularly care for two adult dragons... it would be impossible to get, unless one stole it directly from a Weyr, which is, in itself, an impossible feat. Then, she shakes out of her thoughts. "Z'yith, if you understand how to teach a dragon to go between and if you would have no fear of losing your love to your own inexperience in teaching, go ahead. As none of you," this deliberately including the usually-sensible dragons, "will give your word not to add your weight to that which weakens and destroys Pern, then go. Leave. I shall find you, if not by flit, then by sweep. 'A cave off Igen Weyr', isn't it? I saw the flyer. I assure you, my riders will be ready and eager to search to their hearts' content." S'sha shrugs dispassionately, too tired to use eloquence any more.*
