Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It gives off a glow that lights up the cave.

Look, it’s grown frills, and the glow around it has become even brighter.

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.

Description, one of the older hatchlings, has a unique hobby. He loves to write, and spends most of his time playing with the scroll that lists all of Silent Snowcap's inhabitants, jotting down little anecdotes about each and every dragon, preserving their stories for all time. To his surprise, however, it takes quite a while for most of the ink to dry and become permanent; actually, he's worried that some of the stories will never dry completely at all. Still, he loves his work, and has even inspired dragons from other clans to take it up as well.
