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!

Quellyn paled a bit as the Hatching finished up, glancing around. There were a few other 'brats his age and just a little bit older, who had also Stood and failed to Impress. He bit his lip and wandered over, not wanting to get in the way of the healers. Flora didn't look too badly, thankfully, not compared to some other maulings he had seen, but all the same he was quiet and pale for once, aware that it could have been him. Aware that it could be him at a future hatching.
But that was the danger that they all had to deal with and it was one they all accepted to be Candidates and get a dragon. He nodded to himself as he gathered around with the other kids their age, calmly and solemnly sitting by to see Flora get tended. Quenym nodded a greeting towards Bordetai, another one he'd seen around, and nudged Casa. "She'll be okay, ya know. This is something she can get better from. There 're others that've been hurt worse and made it." And while the girl hadn't come away from it with a dragon, there would always be another hatching. None of the dragonets had Betweened, no Candidates killed.... all in all, it was a good hatching, one that foretold good things in the New Year.
The other boy was offering to take Flora to the Infirmary, or wherever she needed to go. Quenym stayed silent. He other boy would be able to help her more than he was. Right now, Quenym needed to get away, himself, disappointed in the events of the hatching. No dragonet for him!
He jumped up. "I'm gonna go exploring!" he announced. "I'm going to find you a present, Flora, ta make up for you not getting a dragon! It'll be almost better than one! If anyone wants to join me, come along, but be prepared! We'll face dangers untold out there in the wilds, and who knows when we'll come back?" A wild grin was lighting his face. Quenym was ready for anything, and getting lost was one of the best ways to forget about the troubles that plagued him. And who knew? Maybe they'd find a lost/hidden/mysterious dragon clutch out there and Impress their own? Or not, but it was still worth looking for.
