56-63. A tangle of Thread falls fast your way. If white, green, or blue, you easily are able to maneuver out of the way in a show of agility. +1 Agility
Rather than abide by V'ime's insistent urge to flame rather than dodge, Rhodonth once again simply avoided the Thread that fell their way. V'ime bore his teeth in frustration and tightened his legs on Rhodonth's sides.
"We're fighting Thread, Rhodonth, not dodging it! You're letting it fall to the Queen's wing, we're here to prevent that!"
I know very well what I'm doing, Mine, Rhodonth replied, her tone sweet but cold, usually reserved for anyone other than her beloved rider. None of this Thread is close enough to flame without getting caught in it ourselves. Do you want our first outing to end poorly?
V'ime had to admit she was right. Just because he wanted to fight and protect the Queen's wing, Pern below them, didn't mean that throwing themselves into harms way would save anyone.
11-25. A rider in the Low-Altitude Wing needs a new bag of firestone. Though Threadfall is a little heavier up here, and the wind stronger, you're able to toss the stone successfully. The rider gives a nod of thanks! Nice aim! +1 Target Accuracy
Neither Rossoth nor Ke'res expected the sudden clump of Thread upon them. One moment, Rhodonth and V'ime were there, the next- gone, and the silver rain replaced them. It was an unwelcome sight, and the brown stifled a cry of surprise. It clipped back leg and flank, and he darted Between, Ke'res maintaining a cover of calm for both of their sakes.
Rhodonth! He exclaimed, as he reappeared. Of course I can handle it. Next time you need only ask for help, and I will be there for you. The affront he had first felt vanished in the face of her flattery. Perhaps she had thought his reactions quicker, and he criticised himself for it.
They were summoned soon after those thoughts faded away, and Ke'res threw another bag of stone to a rider at low-altitude.

Much like his sister, Rossoth had decided on taking evasive manœuvres. He dodged Thread with a quick hop Between, enabling a clutchmate with better positioning to sear it from the sky.

He was becoming a pro at this dodging business, and whilst Ke'res appreciated his movements and precision, she found herself wondering if perhaps they would be better served if he flamed the sharding stuff.
69-75. Oh crap. Your dragon sees a sliver of Thread and hastily flies to catch it. Unfortunately, their aim is off, and you watch in despair as the silver tangles drifts past, only to tangle with your dragons outstretched wing. Fardles. Minor Damage: - 2 HP
Rossoth seemed to share her mindset on the matter. When he rose to flame a small piece of Thread, Ke'res was anxious to see him miss, and aghast when it furled his wing. He flickered Between, grunting in pain. Ah well. At least he tried.

Dodging was a more effective use of his time, Rossoth calculated. So he did just that.

Distracted as he was with his thoughts, R'thell admittedly found himself letting Triesteth carry them along with little guidance or direction. A patch of silver had him come back to reality but only too late did he realize she was well out of their airspace -- and one of their wingmates appeared from Between to catch the patch that was rightly theirs to flame!
Too late, Triesteth spit her flame -- but then jerk creeled in surprise when their fellow got hit with friendly-fire. The little green was absolutely devastated. Her eyes turned grey-yellow, and she creeled with dismay as she wheeled back to her position. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, so sorry! I didn't mean to! She told both her fellow wingmate and Hers.
Oh, she should be grounded immediately for such an infraction. She was nothing but mud.

As distressed as Triesteth was, there was little time to make it right. Instead, R'thell and she were needed up in the Low Altitude Wing for a fire stone run. Though the little green was still grey of eye, and worried about her clutchmate, R'thell did his best to send her affection, love, and comfort. While she worried and fretted, it was up to him to focus--as he should have done, earlier.
Thankfully, their throw was successful-- and while it did little to ease Triesteth's sore hearts, it was something positive to focus on.

Once they returned to their position, things quieted down. While Thread still fell down to their level, it wasn't anywhere near where Triesteth happened to be flying. We can apologize later, all right? R'thell assured, trying to ease his green's broken hearts. Part of him wanted more action to be had, if only so Triesteth didn't have time to think about what happened.
It wasn't your fault, Trie, honest. I was distracted. I should have noticed where we were--it was my fault, fully. You were just trying to flame Thread! Oh, how R'thell wished his poor green believed him.

While things didn't pick up--something caused both rider and dragon to jerk alert. A small amount of pain on the green's hip caused her to squirm and writhe.
Thread.
Visualizing the coordinates and sending them to Hers, Triesteth jumped Between. By the time they reappeared, the pain was gone, and the two were able to carry on the fight.

Outside of the little damage taken, things remained quiet for rider and dragon.

A large clump of Thread quickly streaked towards them, but Tianxiath darted out of the way and back into position with ease. Aerden could only praise the blue for his quick movements. Naturally. You didn't think I'd do less, did you? Tianxiath mentally preened.

As another bit of Thread flew at them, Tianxiath performed a particularly showy maneuver... Aerden had to sternly set him back on task so he didn't get too carried away. While the blue was his heart and soul, there was no question that if Tianxiath could get away with not working, he'd do so.

51-55. There's a patch of Thread that has your name on it. You dive towards it, and aim to flame it down. Unfortunately, your dragon and you weren't paying any mind to the direction the wind was blowing! If white, green, or blue, you are successfully able to weave out of the way. +2 General Agility If this is your third time or more rolling this as a white, green, or blue, you run out of luck and fly right into the ash cloud and remaining Thread.
Aerden's lecture almost came too late, it seemed. As Tianxiath seared down a nasty clump, the wind blew the ash right back at them! Now he really had to hustle, twisting frantically to avoid the cloud and bits of Thread he hadn't managed to get. Aerden exhaled roughly with relief, thumping his dragon's neck. That had been too close, but they were safe.
