Hatching Sands

The hatching sands are located on the outside of Trelis in a small dip between two mountains. The sands are hot and open to the elements. Though most would think this not a good thing, the Queen that lays her eggs there protects them endlessly. High walls surround the sands with rows of stands for weyrfolk, riders and handlers to sit and watch. In a corner on the outskirts of the area is a long table where during a hatching, oils and buckets of food can be found for the newly impressed. When a wher lays her eggs here though, she uses caverns dug into the side of the walls instead, that way she and her eggs are shielded from the blinding sunlight.
