Rules by Lord Haidalon and his wife Zaldalona. Hosting the major mines of Pern.

The place where the grapes for wines grow. Overseen by Lord Nalavon.

This Hold and the land around is the only place on Pern to where you can see a forest like those of Earth. Lord Deladil is the horrible and unlikable administrator.

The holder Grestin oversees the forty-some inhabitants of his desert hold. Pretty much the only thing you can find here is silica for glass-making and skilled weavers.

The only hold to be ruled by a woman. Mariusdara ships out river grains, sugar cane, herbs, dyes, and tropical fruits.

The holding of jolly Bilteran is situated on a wide golden plain. Perfect for the raising of herdbeasts and runners, which is pretty much what he does.

This hold on the ocean houses nearly the entire Seacraft and everyone who lives here is tied to it in some way. The Holder, Julopir, is your typical sailor, right down to the drinking.
