Day 1 Roll 1: Nothing Roll 2:-6 HP
Ri'ven was having a hard time keeping an eye on where all the thread was coming from, because it was coming from everywhere at once. At least for the time being they seemed to be okay, but Hoath was definitely getting the worst of it, the stubborn beast that he was, he was protecting him from the worst of it. AS was natural for him. But he would have more than a few new scars on his sides and legs as a direct result.

Seems to be a particularly bad Fall. The brown commented to his rider as he flamed strands of thread, noting the numbers having to dip out. Indeed. We'll probably end up with more training for their slacking. Blame it on them or the wingleader?Eh.... Hinburath went to turn and felt something pull in a strong gust of wind. Ouch ouch. It took a moment then eased a little, enough he could keep going. How about Thread and wind?
Round 1: Hour 1 Rolls
1. 3: As you fight against a strong gust of wind, you feel something pull! Uh-oh. There's a pain in your wing muscle that hadn't been there before. This isn't good, especially this high up! Still, your dragon fights on. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Chiareth was sick of this wind. The Green had been fighting it all Fall, and it had briefly settled down--she'd almost thought they were in the clear, but the last gust had done a number on her. She'd managed to maintain her place in the formation with plenty of effort, but that was half the problem; she'd done too much, as she noted when her shoulder began to twinge in pain, and her snarl of displeasure was quickly snatched away by the wind.
Don't overwork yourself. C'asta's quiet worry crept through their bond in spite of himself. He truly hated to see the swirls of gray in her eyes, however slight they may have been. We're going to have to play it safe. Seems the wind is going to be against us all night. Great! Just great.

17. As you fly, you find that you're getting into a heavier patch of Thread ahead. You've got a bad feeling about this.... You warn one of your wingmates to let a patch go! Thankfully, they listen, and sure enough, the wind changes! It would have blown the pair right into the patch. As it stands, the wind blows the Thread back, and your wingmate are able to flame it down without injury. [+2 Instinct]
Upon their return, M'aze and Zeath got right back into fighting. M'aze could tell Zeath was irritated by being taken down so early and was focusing extra hard now, hard enough that he spotted.one of his wingmates in trouble just before anything bad happened. He called out to the dragon to warn them and both bronze and rider felt a surge of victory as their prediction held true.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ri'ven saw what would be disastrous should they stay where they were and the pair were able to disappear Between moments before it hit them, appearing in the air just above it. Luckily there were more dragons and riders below, they would catch it. They had to.

Hinburath focused and flamed, chewed and flamed. He skirted over Thread as he flamed it. Unfortunately he didn't get all the strands, and wind blew one onto his right foreleg. A blink Between and he was back. It stung, but he was dragon enough for it. Let the blues and greens return to the weyr. He felt his rider's concern and reassured him.

Grumpily, angrily actually, Hoath glared at the thread about him, all while flaming with a passion. It was so thick up this high that he didn't have to look far, didn't even really have to aim. With a brand new fire stone between his teeth, he shot a flame out that grew and grew as he whipped his head side to side.

To their credit, they were doing fine, even with the air currents working against them. C'asta directed Chiareth toward a somewhat stringy clump coming down on their left, gripping his straps tighter as his Green swerved to catch it in her flame--for a split second, he watched her move, the bright red whirling in her eyes seeming to glow in the light of her flame.

If you don't chill out and start actually paying attention to things instead of just flaming everything we're gonna... A big sheet cut him off as it smacked into them, it was only the cool of Between that saved them from having it burrow but when they appeared in the air again there was ichor and blood oozing from both of them despite leathers and hide.

16. The wind picks up, and you fight to keep in formation. Your wings strain, but you're able to keep your place! Though your muscles ache, you're not going to give up so easily. Pern depends on you! +2 Stamina
A steady gust of wind had Zeath's wingsails stretched taunt as he and M'aze fought to stay in formation. Thankfully due to their size they were able to hold, though M'aze could feel Zeath's muscles working hard to keep them in place. Reaching in, he rubbed the bronze hide fondly as the wind died down again. Well done.

How are we doing on firestone? Just fine, love. C'asta didn't need to check--he'd already done just that a few moments prior. I'm trying to be a touch sparing with it in case we hit any bigger clumps. Good, good. I just--want to think about something other than the damn wind, is all. Her irritation was clear in her voice--if anyone else besides C'asta were listening, it might have been a little funny. Then again, this was Threadfall, and there wasn't much comedy in that. I know. He sent her a wave of comfort, although he wished he could do more. You're fine.

Things went well for a time. Then the wind flared with a powerful gust. Hinburath roared and fought from being blown out of formation. He managed; just barely and at the cost of another pulled muscle. That one was going to hurt when this was over.

If less than 22 feet, you get blown out of formation, but are agile enough to avoid getting hit with Thread. Hurry now -- better make it back before your Wingleader scolds you!
If 23' to 35', you're able to fight it, but wind up straining a muscle. Whoops. Maybe you over-compensated. -4 HP
If 36'-46', you're able to fight the wind with relative ease. Unfortunately, the nearby Threadfall gets blown into your side and haunches -- and you were too big to move out of the way. Ouch! Moderate Damage -8 HP 4. 5.

2. A clump of Thread falls right before you! Unfortunately, the wind pushes you and the Thread away from one another. With determination, you fight the wind, trying valiantly to get to the great enemy! You hop Between, hoping to get closer, and flame the Threads that threaten to fall through! Roll a D4 to see if you successfully Between! 3. 3. Light Scoring! You get too close to Thread and some of it winds up tangling up with you. Ouch! Quick, Between again! Minor Damage -3 HP
A'kir was always a bit nervous about starting in the highest wing. They had to be at their best right from the start and, while he had no doubts that Librath would be just that, he was worried he'd be the weaker link of the two. Thankfully his desire to survive often dragged Librath from the fight long before she wanted to go back to the Bowl, but it also had seen them through some pretty tough fights prior to now.
Librath was ready to go, and as the wind blew a bit of Thread out of her reach, she and A'kir blinked Between to try to chase it down. Unfortunately the wind changed and threw off their mark, leading Librath to have her front leg take a bit of a hit. They went Between once more to kill the Thread, though her arm ached now. The pain made A'kir grimacie but Librath was only fueled to continue.

The thread was starting to fall thicker now, and Chiareth didn't like the feeling that rose in her gut in response to the revelation--something wasn't right, but what was it? She'd hardly managed to take a look around before she spotted a problem waiting to happen--one of their wingmates was bearing down on a clump, but it felt wrong. Hey! Back off--you have to let it go! She bugled her warning, and the sound was enough to distract them from their target for a few precious seconds. C'asta's head snapped around toward the rider pair Chiareth had noticed--just in time to watch the wind change, sending the thread back toward them. If they'd continued chasing it down, they'd have found themselves square in the middle of it. Good catch. Thanks.
