F'lar arrives at Fort Weyr, arriving unusually high, on Mnementh's initiative, to give him time to cool down. He arrived for a meeting with all the Weyrleaders to discuss the incident between F'nor and T'reb. T'ron had deliberately chosen a time that would be most inconvenient for the east-coast Benden Weyr, with the intent of throwing him off-balance. T'kul and R'mart were still not present when F'lar arrived at the Fort Weyr Council Room. He is greeted with formal nods by T'ron, D'ram and G'narish, and more warmly by T'bor. G'narish and D'ram defended F'lar's request for a meeting.
