Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has a large, shield-like object at the end of its tail that it uses for protection.

And look! It has grown wings! 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.

Unlike her older brother Darai, Kyrisa loves to meet other dragons. Her favorite thing to do is play with other dragons, whether it's a fully grown dragon or one that just hatched. For some reason, Kyrisa is terribly afraid of the dark, and never leaves her cave at night.
