J'simo and Talouth's weyr
The first thing you see as you step into the weyr is a large blue dragon just stretching its wings. It nods as it passes you. Then it walks out onto the ledge to your right, over looking the Weyr Bowl. It jumps from the ledge and snaps open it's wings as it circles down to the Feeding Grounds.
"I see you've met Talouth. I'm afraid you came just as he was leaving though." You turn around to see a man, roughly fourty some odd years of age, smiling at you. "My name is J'simo, I'm the Weyrlingmaster here at Asura Weyr. I teach lessons to the weyrlings and candidates."
He motions you inside the weyr with a smile. You can see that it has a homely look, most likely from the many years this man as spent in it. "I was a Candidate for around ten years. Then I was twenty when I Impressed, believe it or not. It was my last time standing, also. I was going to become a weaver." He grimaces slightly, but you can see the twinkle in his eyes.
"Lucky me, Talouth decided I looked like a young man worth Impressing and here I am today. My half-sister is Weyrwoman Kayan, but don't you think for a second that's how I got this job." He eyes you for a moment to make sure you get the point. "I flew in the wings for seven years. Then I became a Weyrlingmaster's 2nd for another two. Just earlier this year the previous Weyrlingmaster retired and I took his place."
His weyr is simpley decorated. A jacket and riding straps are clearing visable, but otherwise the room has nothing more than the usual accomadations.
"Let's see here. You've taken the time to come and visit me, so what can I tell you about myself." He rubs his thick finger across the stuble at his chin. His grey eyes study you for a moment under the shadow of his dark hair, which is pulled back in a ponytail. "I was born and raised at the Weyr, and very proud of it. I have a small family here at Asura Weyr. I have a mate of five years, and her name is Bryke. She rides Green Amarouth, and which was the first dragon Talouth ever successfully flew. We have to children together. My oldest is Setlan. He's a weaver, and a very fine one at that! My youngest is Bryna. She's my little darling, and she's the Weyrwoman Second and an Aprrentice Harper." You notice a slight tinge of worry in his eyes at the mention of his daughter. You feel more comfortable when he moves one to another subject.
"I also have a rather interesting Hatching Story, if you ever want to take the time to read it. It's very..." He paused for a moment, adding emphasis to the word. "Comical."
A rumble of disapproval is heard and you turn to see Talouth walk back into the weyr. The blue's stomach is bulging slightly, and you are sure he just ate his meal for the next few days.
"Yes. Now that you've filled your gullet I'm going to get myself some food if you don't mind." You turn around in surprise at his words, only to see him grinning at the blue.
The blue rumbles back, and J'simo chuckles. He turns back to you with a bright smile. "Well, since he's obviously not going anywhere I'll escort you down to the Ground Floor. You can go peek into one of the Candidate's weyrs, or you can go bug Sosi. He's always up for visitors, though I won't say the same for his keep." The old bluerider grimaces, apparently not very fond of whers.
The two of you walk down to the Ground Floor, talking about the latest Candidates to arrive and who you think will get what. "If you get the chance, be sure to drop by and see my daughter, Bryna. She's a Candidate."
Just as he starts to wave goodbye to you, you see a woman walk up to him. She is about his age, with flashy green eyes and a broad smile. She sees you and waves as J'simo tells her who you are. You start down the row of Ground Floor weyrs. You see an odd looking weyr, and decide that must be where Sosi lives. Down furthur are many open weyrs, most of which must hold Candidates. You leave J'simo, deciding you've got *plenty* of people to visit and keep yourself busy.
