The Dolphins' Bell provides another perspective on a major episode in Dragonsdawn, part three («Crossing»).

Mariner and former starship captain Jim Tillek organizes and leads the evacuation of «Landing», the original site of the Pern colony where many people still live, most equipment and durable supplies are stored. One purpose is to take refuge from Threadfall in stone caverns of the Northern Continent, but the immediate threat is a local volcanic eruption. Lacking fuel or capacity for air transport, with few big boats, the colony must also use coastal and river craft that are not seaworthy. With the help of dolphin partners, most of the goods and almost all the people are dramatically secured.
