Board Description
Hatching Sands
Waves of heat rise from the almost white sands of this open-roof cavern. More cavern than arena, the opening above is so far away that rain fall rarely makes it to the sands' floor. Towards the back of the cavern is a large furor of an almost complete circle, deep enough to cause harm minor to someone that fell in. The rampart is in line with the ground entrance for when the dragonets hatch they can be funneled forward. In the center of the circle lay the treasure of Pern, the newest clutch, guarded by their mother.

Soft hissing can occasionally be heard as steam rises through pores below the floor. So newly extinct is the volcano that houses this small Weyr, the molten fluid underneath it has yet to cool.

These Hatching Sands are warmer than usual at Weyrs. This makes the Hatching Sands almost impossibly hot to walk on and let alone stand on for the length of time a Hatching takes. The leather-workers have been forced to come up with special Candidate sandals to allow those potentials to make it through the Clutch. Candidates are required to these sandals in order to gain the ability to walk and stand on the Sands. These sandals have thicker soles than ordinary Candidate sandals to ensure the teenagers can survive the sweltering sands.

Above the Sands themselves are the Stands from which the audience watches. Certain seats are reserved for dignitaries, including the upper echelon of the Weyr and the Lord Holder.

The Weyrbowl can be accessed from the Grounds.

Ariana: I broke the Recent Threads plugin. So I added back the two threads that fell off. Hopefully it goes back to working again. Not sure why Kira's post wasn't picked up by it. I might have to reinstall it to really fix it. Jul 22, 2022 16:01:18 GMT -8
