Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It must be very shy since it keeps hiding from you.

It’s gotten slightly bigger! 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.

Nomyr was taken in by the mint pair, Reyna and Guzu.  She is a happy-go-lucky youngster, and sometimes chafes under the constant surveillance of her adoptive mother.  She likes to venture with Reyna to the mouth of the cave during rainfall, which is one of the few times she can escape the rain-fearing Guzu.  The other hatchlings like Nomyr, and treat her kindly, even those who are usually rough with the others.
