Aww... It's a cute baby dragon... except for the tangle of dangerous-looking vines surrounding it...
Young dragons are relatively defenseless. Their scales don't grow in until right before they mature, and they have almost no strength. Once a hatchling's wings grow in, it marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are usually left alone by their mother and begin to hunt and survive on their own.
Heilig was hatched in a peaceful cave, taken in by a young woman named Fox. She hatched him and took care of him but eventually had to freeze him due to the fact he was dying so quickly. He now may be picked on by the other dragons in the cave, but Fox stands up for him, hitting other dragons on the snout before they can say anything more.
