Alerae smiled softly, striding forward when B'jin directed them to. She stood back suddenly when Okalinath just reached forward and tapped on the egg, her eyes worried. Would the egg be good, would they have another Queen? Her smile returned as the shell showed no sign of harm as her mother fiddled with it.
She waited as Vaeyla stepped up to the egg. The woman fidgeted with her hands, but the rest of her outward appearance led to an easy calm. Once the other female stepped back, Alerae crept forward, still a tiny bit nervous about the shell.
Her first touches were light, barely brushing her fingertips against the shell. Boldened, she knelt into the sand, laying a hand flat against the curve, closing her eyes. She paused there for a few moments, her hand stroking the shell, listening for any reaction or respond.
Silence is Golden
