741.11.14 | A New Addition - Cazan - 14.Nov.20

It was far too early in the day for Kor'is to be on the sands, and that suited Cazan just fine as she carried the little gold egg that she'd purchased from Rhaedalyn over to Mal for closer inspection. It had been moving gently and the gold watched it with quiet excitement, humming softly as she waited for her tiny new friend to join her in the world.

Malvayth's excitement was infectious, and Caz carefully set the egg down on the toasty sands in a small divot that the dragon dug out with the tip of her nose. She moved to gently wipe away the sand and gave Mal a cuddle as she asked, "Do you know what you'll name her yet? Her mom's name is Whisper, you could go with that theme."

The gold considered a moment as she kept watch over the egg. Whisper was a good name, a good and sneaky name. Maybe if her new little friend had a similarly sneaky name that would help them both be sneaky. But what if she already had a name when she hatched? Or what if she didn't want to be sneaky at all? I will wait and see when she joins us. It won't be long.

There was something about the calm self assured tone in her dragon's voice that made Cazan go fetch the bucket of meat to have on hand. Sure enough the egg gave a little lurch and tiny cracks began to appear in the shell before a tiny golden head burst out and peered up at both of them. There was a tiny chirp and Mal nudged her rider with the tip of her tail. She is very hungry.

"Right, here you go. Come on." This part was roughly familiar, though at a much smaller scale as Cazan made sure to get the tiny hungry thing fed. And boy was she hungry. Caz's stomach lurched a bit at the rather messy display, the smell of blood stinging her nostrils with how strong it was. Or maybe she was just smelling what the flitter was smelling?

At least it was over soon enough and she was sitting on her little picnic blanket, leaning back against Mal as the newest and tiniest addition to her mind curled up on her belly with a pleased chirp. "Well at least you're a cute little thing."

Lady. She's too dignified to be a thing. Malvayth nuzzled her head against Cazan fondly before regarding her tiny new friend. She very carefully stuck her nose towards the firelizard, letting the tiny gold stretch out to headbutt her. Cazan laughed at the little gesture. "Well, Lady, you don't have to cuddle me. You're Mal's firelizard, you know."

Still she gave Lady a tiny scritch at the back of her head because she knew that was what the little thing wanted before the firelizard hopped off of her to climb up and curl on top of Malvayth's enormous head like a tiny living crown.
