Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

Tala had been enjoying the Hatching. She loved the cute little greens, hoping that one of them may turn its eyes to her. The two greens who said hello to each other were so sweet! The blue who bit a boy caused a bit of concern, but the blue Impressed and the Candidate he bit returned to the Sands a few minutes later, hand all bandaged up, so Tala figured he couldn’t be hurt too badly if he was still Standing.
Things quieted down for a bit, before another green broke through her shell. And she was adorable, with all that sneezing! Tala couldn’t help giggling when she sneezed on her bronze brother. She watched the next few hatchings and Impressions with a soft smile on her face. Dragonets were so cute. The greens were her favorite, and Tala really wanted to Impress one of them. None of the greens so far had come anywhere close to her, but there were still a good number of eggs left.
And then the first brown hatched and everyone seemed to hold their breath for a moment. Tala couldn’t help the shocked gasp that escaped her when the brown ran into a nearby group of Candidates and launched itself at a girl. In seconds all Tala could see was the dragonet, the poor girl, and the blood. She had already started taking a step forward before something stopped her. Ryvala. Tala couldn’t run to the hurt girl while the brown was still there and she had a chance of being attacked herself. She couldn’t leave her daughter without her. Tala would not knowingly deprive her daughter of a mother as she herself had been. So she stood by, face stony as the brown moved onto a second girl, determined not to become another casualty.
After what felt like an eternity, the brown’s rampage was stopped by Impressing, to a young man who looked a bit sick about the whole thing. Tala silently wished him luck with that one, before dashing over to the traumatized group of girls. She knelt beside the second girl, who, based on the sounds she was making, was clinging to life. It looked bad. Tala had volunteered to help dig people out and care for the wounded after the Landslide, so she knew bad, and this was definitely bad. From the periphery of her vision she could tell there were Healers rushing over, relieved she wouldn’t have to make decisions about how to try to save the girl.
Even so, Tala stayed with her. The other Candidates that had been standing in this group had backed off a bit, most of them crying or staring in shock. Tala couldn’t blame them, but the mauled girl looked so young. She was almost certainly more scared than the others, so Tala resolved to stay with her as long as possible.
“I’m here, I’m here for you.” Tala said, resting her hand on the girl’s own, pressed against her stomach. “The Healers are coming. They’ll know what to do. I’m here.” She promised, hoping the girl wouldn’t die of blood loss or shock before something could be done.
