It's funny -- I just suggested to Shannon Appel last night that perhaps
the blue strain among Waertagi came from a Darkness-era influx of Blue
Vadeli blood.

My assumption would be that they used the same no-longer existant
landmass that the agimori used to get to Prax. A surrealist Pern, that's
a cool thought. As long as I don't have to read thirty novels about it
