Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon... except for the tangle of dangerous-looking vines surrounding it...

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.

Gold hates its full name. In fact, this young vine plans revenge with its equally terribly named young friend Silver on the Gold and Silver dragons.

Oh, they can laugh when no eggs are laied, and they can plot all they want, but the real joke is that they are rooted to the ground right next to the Gold and Silver dragons. Considering the fact that the two hatchlings can't move, and their plans are all overheard by their would-be victims, it is unlikely that they will ever be more threatening than- than- than a couple of hatchlings rooted to the ground that have all their plans overheard by their would-be victims!

Of course, it can come in handy to have something to blame when the Gold and Silvers are not laying.
