They said it was gone and that it would never return.
But it will.
They said dragons were no longer necessary, and the Weyrs fell to ruin as little more than Hold substitutes.
But they were wrong.
They called those who believed doomsayers, liars, and cast them aside, ignored.
But the Red Star doesn't lie.
Thread. It would return. Those few who believed formed a secret rebel faction with the goal of creating a Weyr strong enough to stand against the deadly poison that they knew would fall from the skies. Their base of operations was a secluded cluster of islands to the West. It was a Weyr without a name – and without a clutching Gold.
And so they stole.
The eggs came from three of the remaining Weyrs. Ista. Telgar. Fort. Fourteen eggs were snatched in secret with the desperate hope that one would contain a queen to strengthen their numbers. Potential candidates were seized from holds in secret – some by their own will, but many simply taken, with the belief that the ends justified the means. Thread would return and they had to be prepared.
Their hopes were not in vain. Thirteen of the stolen eggs hatched on the smoldering rocks in the volcanic ash of Victory Rock, and among them was a queen. The Red Star rises on the horizon, drawing ever nearer, an omen of danger to come…
…And the fury of the Weyrs descended on the coalition, killing those they could grasp and forcing them to flee to the south, to a new Weyr they named the South Run.
