HATCHING
It was a week early but dragon eggs didn't wait when they started hatching. The humans soon came from whatever they had been doing before, and entered the hatching sands. The spectators filled the stands, talking excitedly amongst themselves and taking bets on what rare colors would appear in this clutch.
The candidates that had been found to stand for Avearith's clutch shuffled in, some watching the rocking eggs excitedly, others indifferent to the orbs that may, or may not, hold their soon-to-be bondmates.Dragons hatched in all the colours of the rainbow - and some with rainbow markings as well. Some bonded to candidates, others bonded to other dragons and a few decided they wanted to go somewhere instead of bonding:
 Two more dragons crept out from where they had been hiding, both females with two sets of batlike wings like their mother's. The first was red-scaled with golden chestscales and opal claws. She looked up at her mother with golden amber eyes.
"I'm Anari-Kelam. I'd like to go to Lantessama Isle. Please?"
Her sister had scales of a golden color with silver chestscales and claws and she declared after prompting: "Sarus-Kelam. Moire Proctecterate."

ADOLESCENT
Anari-Kelam settled into Lantessama relatively easily. It helped that she was eagern it didn't hurt that she was pretty. Her traditional lucky dragon colours meant that a lot of people came to check her out. Some requested a well-wishing or asked to touch her. Anari-Kelam took it in stride.... but although she had plenty of company, it didn't feel like her life was fulfilled.
Anari-Kelam dove head-first into training, trying to make up for what she lacked by doing her best. She studied, she flew and she practiced her magic...
