U'kaiah smiled as he walked into the greenrider's office. "Good morning, E'naer. I was told you might have a new rider for my wing."

"Morning U'kaiah. Yes, I have. A young lass. She's been kept in Weyrling wing until she got some more age," E'naer replied and started to rummage his desk. "Well, we could certainly use another greenrider." It was a shame about H'sart's green. The dragonhealers said it would take at least a turn for her wing to heal to the point she could fly.

"Ah, here, found her," the greenrider pulled a file under the pile. "Naerigga, Ceerith's rider. I believe her father was our old Weyrhealer." "Really? Which one?"

"Rigmor, he left about turn ago," E'naer said. "Anyway, the girl impressed when she was still fourteen, fifteen." "Ah yes, Rigmor." U'kaiah searched his memory. "He had another daughter, did he not? I think I saw her still wandering around the infirmary when I was staying there."

"Yes, she's a healer apprentice," E'naer said. The wingleader remembered her to be a bit of a sour girl. She wouldn't even pretend to smile at his corney jokes. But, even if her sister shared that trait, it didn't mean she wasn't a good rider and he wasn't happy to have her. "Has she been informed yet?"

"Yes, the weyrlingmaster is having a little talk with right now. You see, she's got a little behaviour problem. Nothing too serious, I'm sure she grows out of it. After her weyrlinghood, she's been taking the weyrlife to the extreme. Wild parties, boys.. her performance is suffered a bit." "Hmmm." U'kaiah knew others who enjoyed the joys of weyrlife, but they at least knew how to balance it with their duties as riders. "Yes, I'm sure she'll grow out of it. But thank you for letting me know. I will keep an eye on her."

"I'm sure the responsibility of being wing rider will make her calm down," E'naer said.

"Fighting Thread on a regular basis will sobber any rider," the bronzerider nodded.

"She's a good girl, deep down." "I'm sure she'll be fine." U'kaiah had actual problem cases to deal with, after all. This one would be easy. "So am I," E'naer agreed and looked down the file. "Well, that was pretty much all of it. Her weyrlinghood went well, nothing to complain. Ceerith's is noted for being fast flier." U'kaiah smiled, thinking how that could be taken in more than one way. "All the better. Don't worry, E'naer, I'll take good care of them both."

"I have no doupts about it," E'naer grinned.
