The Northern Continent has turned to ice and snow.
Winter has become all but unbearable with spring and summer being a brief respite. Dragonkin have lost their ability to between, and dragons have lost the ability to chew firestone and thus breathe fire. There are threats in both the north and the south; wild beasts called whurs and wild felines who’s attacks are growing more and more each day. Whers have gained a new purpose as well; whersled teams are used to transport supplies to the few holds that remain.
The Whurs have no fear of dragons, and have attacked and killed many, from the newly hatched to the Senior Queen of Nanook Weyr, Gold Arath. The red backed whur, known as "Red Helmet", and his pack wreak havoc upon the Northern Continent, killing many and the Weyrs of the Northern Continent declare him as the continent's "public enemy number one" as he starts forming alliances with other pack leaders.
Most recently, a bronze of Southern Weyr descent has caught Silver Aniuth of Nanook, the new Senior Queen. She has laid a clutch of 27 eggs, including a queen egg. The threat of the whurs has only grown, and it appears that Red Helmet, is building some sort of a fortress as Searchriders scour the globe for candidates for the upcoming Hatching.
