Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Like the egg it hatched from, it is a very shiny gold.

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.

The Prince of Gold has always been a very friendly and humble little hatchling, but he almost never gets to have friends because the others believe that he thinks he's too good for them. Maybe it is because his skin is worth more than a majestic king's castle or that he sparkles gloriously whenever he steps into the light. But whatever the case is, he is still hoping to find a friend to play with him and treat him as an equal.
