The Benden Weyr Alphabet

Kassima: "Now I'll sing my ABC's; watch how everybody flees."

Note: This is something that M'kla started on the Benden knot channel one night, and pretty soon, almost everyone was pitching in with ideas. I've only listed those who contributed at least one verse amongst the writers... but credits also go to those who are in the verses for providing inspiration.

The Benden Weyr Alphabet

A is for Asrai, who's drinking the Water;
B's for Breana, who's Aph's foster-daughter.

C is for Cav, who can't keep his pants on;
D is for Davi, whom many romance on.

E is for Emlyn, rider of a green;
F is for Flan, whose cleaving hand is mean.

G's for Garant, who terrorizes new mothers;
H is for Halyn, terrorizing all others.

I's for 'I love you,' the bronzerider's call;
J's for J'lor--long may his foo fall.

K's for the K-Team, too many to list;
L is for Lanryi, too cute to resist.

M's for M'kla--her klah's awful, but hey!
N's for N'ren, who will be free someday.

O's for Ofira, who's wielding the Pan;
P's for P'tran, Weather-Deity Man.

Q is for Quinath, Rosalen's blue 'mate;

W's for Wenda, that arrogant dame;
X is for Xuloth--we needed a name.

Y is for Yazric, Jazmin's little one;
Z is for Zak, and with that, we are done!
