Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It sleeps a lot, but when it’s awake, it’s quite a handful.

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.

Maya sleeps more often than she does anything else, but when she is awake she has the energy of several hatchlings, which makes her hard to control. The other Pillow dragons really don't express an opinion about her over-active behavior, so it's up to her tamer and some of the more disciplinary dragons to put their foot down, so to speak. She can be quite destructive, clawing at the cave walls and screeching due to sheer excitement. Maeyella uses a gentler form of discipline, giving a disappointing snort instead of a full-blown roar that some of the more irritable dragons are given to do.
