Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It doesn’t move much, and appears to be covered in stone.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing. However, the wings look too heavy to fly and are filled with beautiful crystal.

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.

Named after her favorite legend, Prometheus seems to be the odd dragon out of the Turret hatchlings. She refused to harm test subjects, instead spending her time with Aperture Records, or sneaking into the library, slowly teaching herself to read, until there was nothing in the canyon left to read.

She never returned to her parents or sisters, instead wandering the caves until she was too weak to even move. It was Chell who finally rescued her from the dark, responding to that timid, hopeless voice proclaiming 'I'm different.'
