Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Ever since it hatched, the sky has been full of very dark clouds.

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.

Denaali once wished to be Daax's mate, however from birth she was stolen from adulthood and now cannot become his mate. Instead, she became his adopted daughter, and from her earlier wishes, she refuses any mates he tries to force into her life.
