Valentine eggs are only seen once a year. Adults’ mating seasons are very short, usually spanning a few weeks in the mid-to-late winter. These dragons were once reputed to be omens of good luck in love.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

The fastest way to get thrown out of Laurra's Books is to pronounce the numeral in 7Lrra's name. She is normally easygoing and does whatever she can to help her customers fall in love with books. Her store carries everything from aardvark biology to zymurgy—at least, if her collection were to be measured in the more common script. As Nworset more commonly uses dacrune, most of her books are in that alphabet. Still, from el to zod if she doesn't have a title, she knows how to het her claws on a copy. Her best-seller is Disashter's "1,001 Things NOT To Do (I Know From Experience)", but her personal favourite is one of QzA4z's explicit botanical romances, "A Trellis for Two".
