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.

Desert Ghost Plant never speaks. No one knows whether that is because of choice or inability. He showed up at the mints' cave one day, and has lived there for many years. He sleeps there every night, but no one sees him when they wake up in the morning. He returns much later in the day, often dripping wet. He doesn't eat with the other mints, and instead observes from afar. He never makes eye contact with anyone, and instead stares at the ground.
