Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It loves to chase butterflies.
And look, it has grown wings that release a faint, spicy scent when it waves them. It must be nearly mature.

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 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.
