Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has bright, shiny scales and loves to play in the sunlight.

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.

Hebenash occasionally wakes from ver dreams without a sense of conclusion to differentiate the real world from the dream, a situation that is only resolved after ve falls asleep and later breaks out of the state after waking up 'properly'. On days ve is trapped in ver dream mind, ve is understandably disoriented and confused, suffering primal existential fears that ve would not struggle with when truly awake. Ver worst streak so far involved ver enduring a three day marathon of this mental state, something that brought ver to the brink of death from sheer mental exhaustion. Recently, ve seems to have found a partial remedy in tisanes and (perhaps ironically) exposure to daydream dragons, the combination of which allow ver to, afterwards, almost reliably catch a restful sleep that lets ver wake normally.
