Hatching 1
"Welcome to Icarus!" Breeze said as she saw the boy and the girl laying on the sands. She found it a bit odd that they were laying in those hot sands, but hey, it were Lenikis eggs and they were beautiful.
"Icarus?"
"Yes, didn't you come from the boat?"
The two looked very confused, they weren't dressed regularly either. Oh well, Breeze had seen many strange people. She glanced at the eggs. Were they rocking?
"You better get outside." she said, "the eggs will hatch and you don't want to upset Leniki."
When the two were outside Breeze turned to her drak and said:
"I'll leave them to you, be a good mother."

Water leniki turned to her eggs and waited. About half an hour later 4 little draklings were hurding against there mother.
"It'sss time to go out, everyone remember their name?"
All 4 draklings, 2 males and 2 females nodded."
Leniki went through the door and opened it. She went outside, sheltering her children from the hungry eyes of the erm 'humans'. They would get to see them quick enough. Leniki looked up and scanned the skies. She soon found what she had been looking for, Gelonthis.
"Come down!" she shouted, "Ssssee our draklings."
The desert flew down and perched just in time to see a little earth drak run off from behind her mother.
"Uniski!" she yelled as she ran for her chosen, jumping over some blocks half her size and avoiding humans. Nif looked as the drak came closer. Finally Uniski stopped in front of Nif and tilted her head up, looking deep in the girls eyes and promptly fell asleep against her afterwards.
Led by his sister a daring fire strode towards the former slaveboy Alexander.
"Weskiis." the fire said and sat down protectively in front of the boy and his lover Marianne making his message very clear. Everyone who wanted to separate these two would need to go past him first. He bugled and looked at the humans around him, if looks could kill...
When everyone's attention was with the fire, the small Day male looked at his chosen. He was white and furry. Odd, the others weren't like that, but neither were they like his mothers Knight, so it must be ok to want him. But Hala was also looking at his bigger brother. Some pebbles would help to get his attention!
Hala turned and stabilised the pebbles just in front of his face, But between the little rocks he could see the light day drak.
Happy with the attention he deserved, The day drak said: "Fyakiis." and went to his chosen.
Three draks had chosen and only one aspirant remained. But Marianne couldn't spot another drak running around. Maybe she should be happy with Weskiis to protect Alexander and her both, but she still envied him a little.
As she turned toward her lover she noticed an anomaly in the Mother draks skin. She looked more closely and finally made out a head. The little Water that resembled her mother was close to falling asleep. When she saw Marianne looking at her, she made a soft happy sound and said: "Valeiski." and let herself be taken from her mothers care.

With all her draklings paired Leniki stood up straight and bugled, heralding the first hatching at DesCas.
