Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has wings—but no hind legs—and it enjoys flying by the ocean.

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.

It was an ordinary day for Famith, he was playing with his friend a Carmine Wyvern who shared the same clutch and hatch dates as himself. Meanwhile the dragon keeper was adding the finishing touches to his friend's description. Suddenly there was a loud bang like a clap of thunder and the slap of a Green dragon's tail as it summons an earthquake all rolled into one. Famith hid behind a rock before a bolt of lightning flashed white over where he and his friend were playing. Heartbroken, he could only watch as the dragon keeper tried in vain to use her magic to revive him.
