The White Dragons

Get A Copy

As Jaxom grows up, he has to deal with the difficulty of being both a Lord Holder and a dragonrider, the maturity of Ruth who, besides being white, is a runt , his own teenage angst and desire to fight Thread on his own, and the rebellious Oldtimers , who attempt to steal a golden egg from Benden Weyr. Ruth always knows when he is and can travel through time to avert the growing political crisis. But while fighting Thread, Jaxom falls ill with a potentially deadly sickness called "Fire-Head".

This leads him to recuperate in Cove Hold, and while there he discovers some of the mysteries that the Ancients, the ancestors of the Pernese, left behind, and he begins to make more sense of the past.

Lytol notices the image before leaving, and obliquely gives Jaxom permission to return to the cove to improve the image, so Jaxom decides to head there after the fall. Despite having developed what seems to be a cold, Jaxom heads to Fort Weyr, and ends up flying with the Queens' Wing.

In the aftermath, despite feeling sick, he decides to take Ruth back to the cove on the Southern Continent. A long time later, Jaxom wakes and finds himself being treated by Brekke and Sharra , a sister of Toric. As he recovers, he learns that he was sick for sixteen days and nearly died, but Ruth saved him by calling for help when he initially collapsed at the cove. In addition to this, he begins falling in love with Sharra. Lytol is eventually brought to see him, and he hugs Jaxom when he sees he's alive.

The others warn him that his Dragon Salth is too old and will likely die trying to catch Caylith , but he isn't concerned. He then reveals that the situation at Southern Weyr is bad; all the female dragons are either dead or too old to rise, and the males are suffering as a result.

Mnementh briefly bars access to their fight, but Robinton manages to get past, and watches F'lar eventually overpower and kill T'kul. In the aftermath, D'ram decides to travel to the Southern Continent, take over Southern Weyr, and bring things back to normal. Sebell is also set to replace Robinton as Masterharper of Pern. At the same time, Ruth reports the news to those at the cove, and Brekke decides to travel to Ista to help. Brekke travels alone on Ruth, and not long after she leaves, Jaxom and Sharra encounter Piemur , who reveals he's been secretly exploring and mapping the Southern Continent coastline for the last few Turns.

Ultimately, he is willing to wait for permission from Benden Weyr, so N'ton and Sebell travel there to report this. With this in mind, N'ton, Sebell and F'lar begin overseeing an influx of holders' sons to Southern Hold. During this time, Robinton is brought south on the Dawn Sister , Masterfisherman Idarolan 's fastest vessel. Robinton soon arrives at Cove Hold , and is shown around his new home. At the same time, Jaxom learns he's now well enough to fly between again, and the next day, Robinton recruits him and the others to begin exploring the surrounding area for evidence of sites established by their distant ancestors.

Fandarel and Wansor arrive with a newly-constructed distance-viewer to inspect the Dawn Sisters with, and they soon discover that they are artificial objects. The next day, Jaxom wakes early from a dream of a volcanic eruption.

Having had similar dreams beforehand, Jaxom wonders if he's actually seeing memories passed down from the fire lizards who rest nearby, and he decides to explore the mountain that corresponds with the one in his dream. Sharra, Menolly and Piemur end up joining him, and after some time in the air, they reach the other side of the mountain, and find evidence of a vast buried settlement on the side of a plateau.

Thread begins to fall, prompting them to make a hasty return to Cove Hold, where they end up in trouble for their trip. Despite this, the others decide to investigate, and they begin surveying the various mounds that indicate buried buildings, and they begin making plans for excavation. Later, at Cove Hold, after a meeting between the various Weyrleaders, Jaxom walks with N'ton to their dragons, and remains with Ruth while N'ton continues on to find Mirrim , aiding Wansor with his stargazing.

N'ton goes to Jaxom and confirms this, and tells him he was planning to talk with him about this, but his sickness made an opportunity impossible. After N'ton leaves, Sharra approaches, having been called by Ruth. Sharra reveals that she's been able to hear him ever since Jaxom got ill, and Ruth requests that they make love to open up Jaxom's mind and undo the damage done by Mirrim's remarks. The next day, Ruth manages to get enough images from the fire lizards for them to figure out where to start digging, and the day after that, they begin excavating three buildings, joined by F'lar and Lessa, amongst others.

Toric joins their team, and Sharra reveals to Jaxom that he plans to marry her off and won't consider Jaxom due to the problems he had with the Holders' sons who've already come south. Despite this, Jaxom assures her they'll be together. After digging up another small building, they return to Cove Hold.

In addition to this, he requests that Lytol travel south so that he can aid in the excavation of the Plateau. Following this, Jaxom returns to Cove Hold, and begins exploring again, searching for a location that the ancients could have fled to after abandoning the Plateau, and he and Ruth eventually come across a meadow with three oddly-shaped mounds. With Fandarel 's help, they manage to enter one of the vehicles, and discover a room full of maps of Pern, and the solar system it's a part of.

Jaxom is set to copy the maps while the others continue the excavation of the Plateau, and he realises that they're glad that Toric doesn't really know the full extent of the Southern Continent.

The next day, Robinton, F'lar and Lessa discuss dealing with Toric's holdings, before traveling to the Plateau. Confronting Toric again, he tells him he won't be able to keep Sharra away, and demonstrates Ruth's ability to command the other fire lizards. Much later, when spring comes to Ruatha, Jaxom is formally confirmed as Lord Holder. At the same time, Robinton reveals they've discovered why their ancestors abandoned the Southern Continent, one of the maps in the shuttle showed the geological stability of Pern, and the Northern Continent was much more stable than the south.
