Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Its eyes glow brightly at night, and it enjoys attacking insects and small animals.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

Because of a horrible turn of events to this poor hatchling, she begged another dragon to end her life. However, he refused, but offered to freeze her.

She chose a position that would remind all of her: a gazing pose, for she loved gazing at the sky. Sometimes she would even seem to still have a flicker of life in her eyes, but most claim it was an illusion.
