Vitaliath cranes her neck downwards to see the egg as A'dian gently picks it up. ~Thank you, little mother! We'll be back with a friend,~ she adds cheerfully, then devotes all her attention to the egg as it shakes slightly.

The egg seems to shake apart, cracks appearing and pieces of shell falling away as its tremors grow stronger. Finally, with one last, violent heave from the firelizard inside, the shell falls away completely. A chocolate-colored brown hatchling looks around curiously, then fixes its gaze on A'dian and begins to creel. Loudly and urgently.

A'dian quickly transfers the new-hatched firelizard to the crook of his elbow, searching in his pocket with the other hand. He pulls out a slightly-squashed meatroll and, fumbling a bit, manages to break off a large piece and stuff it in the brown's mouth. The firelizard gulps it whole, then starts creeling again, until A'dian interrupts him with another piece of meat. So it goes, until the brown is fully stuffed.

~He's sooo cute,~ Vitaliath says happily, watching the little creature yawn and curl up in A'dian's arms. ~What will you call him, A'dian?~

-Hmm.... I'm not sure.- He ponders the question for a moment, then makes a decision. -Arbol. It just seems to fit.-

~I like it! Let's go find A'lan,~ she suggests, then adds smugly, ~He'll probably be at the Feast.~

A'dian groans softly. He'd hoped to avoid the Feast, and the sheer number of people who were going to be there. But Vitaliath had known that, of course. -Let's go, then, and find A'lan.- The green dragonet following eagerly, A'dian sets off, back towards the Weyr. After all, once they found A'lan, they didn't have to hang around - and the only company he'd have once out of the Lower Caverns would be A'lan. Not a bad thing. Not at all.
