Photobucket Weyrbowl
This is the main open part of the Weyr where dragons land and take off. Currently, the weyrbowl is slowly filling with more and more water as the rain continues to fall and the landslides continue to block any escape of moisture. The familiar scene has been replaced by an immense, muddy lake.

Photobucket Conference Room
This room is usually only used for meetings, whether they are with other Weyrleaders or the various Wingleaders and Wing seconds here at Aerten. The room is dominated by a large round table that usually sits a total of 14 people. If the number exceeds that extra chairs have to be brought up from the kitchens or people can stand.

Photobucket Memorial Cave
***This forum is CLOSED TO NEW TOPICS for the duration of the flood***

This is where the citizens of Aerten honor the comrades that went before them. The names of the deceased are carved all along the walls by friends and family left behind; those named are of all different ranks and ages - human, dragon, flitt, or wher - no one is too 'unimportant' to be honored. Characters may come here to pay their respects or add a name to the memorial.

***This forum is CLOSED TO NEW TOPICS for the duration of the flood***

Here the Herbeasts roam, and their keepers live in the rooms that are attached to the stables, in order to take care of them. Runnerbeasts also stay here. This is where dragons come to eat.

Photobucket Dunfalin River
***This forum is CLOSED TO NEW TOPICS for the duration of the flood***

This river runs right through the Weyrbowl, disappearing underground at the southern end to fill Lake Crisium. Ten footbridges are positioned evenly along its length to Weyrfolk convenience. The water is frigid in the winter, but provides a lovely place to swim in the summer. Weyrfolk can be found fishing here all year round.

Photobucket Lake Crisium
***This forum is CLOSED TO NEW TOPICS for the duration of the flood***

This underground lake is well lit and heated by the same springs that heat the Weyr's baths. It has several openings to admit dragons, and is large enough for several dragons to swim or bathe at once.

The Riders' weyrs are house along the two sides of the ravine. Long stair cases with safety ropes lead to the weyrledges. Each weyr includes a large area for the dragon as well as a smaller room for the rider and a personal bath, however none of them have a back entrance. There are 700 individual weyrs; currently 110 are in use.

Photobucket Kitchens and Dining Hall
***This forum is CLOSED TO NEW TOPICS for the duration of the flood***

This includes the Kitchens - where food is prepared - and the Dining Hall - where the members of the Weyr eat everyday. Ceremonies, like Walking the Tables and celebrations like Hatching Banquets are also held here. The two rooms are connected by a common doorway and meals are usually laid out on long tables in the dining hall, buffet style. The Dining Hall also has a few entrances that lead to the Weyrbowl.

Photobucket Clifftops
Far above the concerns of the Weyr below, the clifftops of Aerten provide a spectacular view. They are barren and littered with rocks and sand, punctuated by the occasional bush but are otherwise flat and uninteresting. From this lofty vantage point, Arion Hold and all the nearby farms are visable as well as the majority of the Weyr.

Temporary Infirmary, Herdbeast Pens, and Kitchen are located here. Accessible by stairway or friendly dragonback.
