HATCHING
Pete always made certain to study the pamphlets and information signs. Which was how he knew that aside from a dragon clutch, there was also a wher clutch at White River Weyr. The concensus on pern was that dragons were better, but coming from a mining village, Pete knew that both species had their strengths and weaknesses. And for him, a wher would probably be better. A large dragon would not be able to come along underground, nor would it have the night vision of a wher.
Having signed up, there was little more for Pete to do than return to his daily tasks. He studied, he inquired and he observed the workers that maintained the Weyr. Days strung together and suddenly the notice was broadcasted that the wher clutch was hatching.
Pete hurried toward the eggs and waited. Not surprisingly, it was nightfall and the gathered whers seemed to have only just woken up from their slumber. One by one the eggs strated shaking, moving, bouncing and then there was a bronze-coloured baby wher with orange stripes sitting on the sand. As more eggs hatched it became clear that the bronze was far bigger than his siblings. His colouring reminded people of jasper, but no candidate so aptly named was around.
After a few moments, Pete realised that the bronze-copper wher had his eyes on him. Looking back, a bond snapped in place and the dragon acknowledged it: "I shall take the name Petsk to honour you. I might not be small enough to crawl into mines with you, but I'm big enough to guard their entrance."
