Ayden Weyr was established during the First Interval, nestled far down on the North-Western coats of the Southern Continent. There the riders and the Weyrfolk lived with a close connection with the North, collecting and researching information. They stayed true to roots, their common origins of the North. For many Turns the Weyr flourished, joint with the Weyrs of the North. Their knowledge of the dragons and their smaller cousins rose, and their research was helpful through Pern, not just in the South. Three Holds, each having their own immense store of knowledge formed and flourished under the protection and help of Ayden Weyr. The bond with the North grew stronger every day and in turn so did the Weyr.
But then Thread hit Pern, falling and devastating life as people knew it. All across Pern, the mighty dragons rose to flame their enemy from the sky, and Ayden -- tiny compared to the Weyrs of the North -- was faced with a most difficult choice. Break the connection with the North to survive the fall of Thread keeping their riders close; or abandon their roots. Some left, not wanting to loose connection with the stable North, but most stayed. They did not want to relinquish what they had worked so hard to achieve. And eventually Thread passed and Turns came and went and all memory of the North began to fade, even if their own knowledge did not.
Now, on the very brink of the Ninth Pass, the rumours of riders across the sea are getting stronger everyday. Rumours of forces massing in great numbers. Stories, forgotten by most, kept living by a few, are resurfacing and the dragons are whispering. A Dragongifted rider across the sea from a home long forgotten...
