G’rein patted the leg of his dragon with a smile, feeling her pride at the powerful sons and daughter she had produced, but his gaze was soon caught by the movement of another egg.

The green moved it apart from the others, taking no risks – she would give her young ones some hatching space! All eyes again moved to this egg, speckled with faint blue, green and brown splotches. The colour of the Hatchling within was anybody’s guess, though the egg was small – the betters in the Weyr wagered on a green, a small blue, or a very small brown. They would not be proved wrong.

The hatching of this egg was far less dramatic than the emergence of its brothers and sisters, and it all seemed to be over in a few seconds, when looked back on by reminiscent individuals. The dragon all but exploded from his egg, stood looking around for a few moments, before he made his way over to Matelle, looking very happy with himself.

He was, as predicted, a small blue, with a faint sunny yellow tinge to his otherwise sea blue hide, and his eyes held a happy swirl of blue as he looked up at his Impressor. He would grow to be, if not the largest of blues, an excellent flier. Remarkably agile. If he could have beamed with pleasure, he would have.

{M’telle? Isn’t this fun? So warm and nice…can we play? After food, of course…} He stopped as a thought occurred to him. {Oh yes. I’m Harilath! Isn’t this great?}
