Journeymen

Journeymen continue their studies toward mastery independently. They can be assigned either to a Hold or Weyr, or remain for Hall-duties.
A journeyman on Hold or Weyr duty:


- Maintains and repairs the machinery and technology in the assigned area.
- Replies to repair requests in the area.
- Intalls new technologies as needed.
- Acts as technical support of the area.

A journeyman on Hall-duties:


- Teaches: Most apprentice classes are taught by journeymen.
- Engages in project work: There are several projects going on in the Hall. The projects usually involve invention of new technologies or improvement of old ones. An example of a project is the Hall's current windpower-experiment.
- Emergency repair duty: A journeyman assigned to this duty answers all requests of technical help within riding distance. These calls are fortunately few, but usually when they happen they are urgent ones. Journeymen can also flag down a sweeprider to answer a call from a more distant location and has a right to ask a senior apprentice(s) to help him/her if more manpower is needed.
