HATCHING
Pond Beroul was watching over her eggs in the Lantessama Bay and had loved
every moment of living through a - for her - new experience. Always wanting
to learn and know more, she was eager to see what would happen. Sometimes
she'd noticed small tremors in the eggs. It almost felt like her babies had
been talking to each other. Beroul herself couldn't remember anything from
before she'd been born. Maybe it was a trait from the sire's side of their
genetics. But before Beroul could ask Moeomth, something changed in the
waters. The change was slight and if she'd not been such a
scientifically fuelled mind, she probably wouldn't have noticed. Small
fountain splashes signalled that the eggs were in fact hatching and everyone
scrambled to get the candidates at the scene. As usual some approached the
bay from the sea-side, while others came over the beach. Humans, dragons,
and some beings in between all rushed toward the bay. When they arrived,
they found that the hatchlings had waited... and had made some decisions
ahead of time though those would only become apparent at the end of the
hatching.
Some dragonets dove deep while others rose up, extending thin but strong
wings that could both be used to propel them through air and water.
Flippered feet, webbed ears and a set of nekrat whiskers became evident as
some of the hatchlings left the water. Some had colours that clearly
resembled the hues of nekrats, but some were most definitely different. Like
the pink male that shot up out of the water and quickly bonded.
With their feet in the water, two young people from Dawn Cove were looking
toward the water, hoping one of the hatchlings would come their way. It was
the curly-haired teenaged girl, Zashiki, who bonded first. A peculiar
feeling of something brushing her feet turned out to be a Wave hatchling
sniffing at her feet. As she tried not to pull away, she lost her balance
and dropped into the water, much to the delight of the blue female dragonet.
"I made you fall! I win!"
Zashiki took it in stride because she'd anticipated on getting wet,
"That's okay Ronswul." she replied, "I'll get you next
time."
Only a few minutes later, the other Dawn Cove bonder, Uor, a blond-haired
mechanic who preferred fading into the background, saw a white-blue shape
emerge from the water. Wings floated on the surface and a head popped up,
snout first, to bop him in the stomach.
"You smell so lovely, I'm certain you're
mine." the moon-coloured hatchling let him know, "My
name is Kirnath."

ADULT
Zashiki remained at Lantessama, waiting for her newfound friends to bond.
Ronswul played with the resident nekrats and other seadragons. She
gravitated more toward the sea than to the sky but maybe that was because
Zashiki herself had been so used to going to the sea to see the dragons that
it felt strange to ask Ronswul to fly out.
Together they grew, and gradually Zashiki started to explore. With a dragon,
exploring was a lot less inconvenient. They could just teleport back when
night came. And there was no need to worry as a dragon made for quite a good
bodyguard. Although, they never encountered anything more dangerous than a
jellyfish. And as time went on, Zahiki lost her adversity to travel.
"But would you travel to other worlds?"
Ronswul asked.
Zashiki consdered the thought, but then shook her head, "Two planets
worth of ocean should be enough."
"My work isn't done yet."
Zashiki replied playfully.
