With AIVIAS's plan successful, the Red Star was knocked out of orbit. Everyone on Pern rejoiced, thankful that their ancient enemy was no longer a threat. Life continued on peacefully with slight but dramatic changes. The dragons were no longer seen as beautiful, great beasts; but simply sport and pets. They only flew for the sport of the humans and to mate, bringing them lower and lower in their own Weyrs. Soon two dragons had had enough. After watching their strange new young being slaughtered right before their very eyes, they broke their chains and bugled their defiance.
Their riders responded in same, escaping far, far into the South where none would ever be able to find them. The one silver mutation in the Clutch of the defiant gold perished from injuries the Northerners had inflicted, and she and her rider were taken between.
Devastated by the loss of the silver female and her rider, the escapees set to work building a Hold, fearing they didn't have enough people among them to survive. Weyrfolk and Holdfolk from the North solved this problem, coming to their aid and escaping the hated North. Myraid Hold was created and soon after the Weyr. In honor of the silver daughter who died, they named it Vulnera Weyr.
