Benden Hold Benden Weyr

Carola was Weyrwoman at Benden Weyr late in the Eighth Interval. Her dragon was gold Feyrith. After C'rob (whose dragon was Spakinth), her weyrmate was S'loner (whose dragon was bronze Chendith).

Biography[]

Since Carola was the daughter of Hayara's oldest sister, she was Hayara's niece.

Even though Carola expressed dismay when she learned that Maizella would be singing at an evening's entertainment, she was very surprised at how much Maizella's voice had improved. She was even more surprised when Merelan sang the "Question Song" - because their old harper didn't know it and couldn't find it even when S'loner made him hunt through the Records for it.

S'loner's son Falloner tried to avoid Carola because her daughter Larna followed Falloner "everywhere". After Falloner impressed Simanith and became F'lon, he mated with Larna and she gave birth to their son Fallarnon (who later became F'lar), but Larna died 2 days after the birth.

Falloner told Robinton that during Feyrith's last mating flight, Carola wanted C'rob as Weyrleader again, but Spakinth wasn't as clever as Chendith. And Feyrith's clutch by Chendith was much larger than her last one by Spakinth.

When Carola took ill and died, S'loner was forced to face the fact that the new Weyrwoman was Jora, who was not at all as attractive or sensual as Carola had been and was afraid of heights.
