Another of the smaller eggs twitched and split down the side. A yellow head pokes out as so many yellow heads have before, and breaks the rest of the way free. His spikes grace from the back of his head to his tail, black and long. His legs are long, his body thin, and his wings broad. Looking around, his eyes traveling from one hopeful to another, though only searching for one. Seeing Joselet, he runs for her, looking up at the girl's eyes and saying, quietly, Joselet, I am Coalan...
Another egg, this time another of the bigger two, spilts when Coalan Chooses his Bonded; another deep brown drackling emerges. This one has streaks of a tanish color down his muzzle and from his spine halkfway to his belly. His eyes are so dark blue as to be black. Imirie, he says, not even approaching her, but waisting his gaze on no other. I am your Bonded. I am Kegan.
Only one egg remains, now, and three hopefuls. The last hasn't moved for a long, time, but Zypher knows it is not infertile. She watches it, and the hopefuls, with a smile in her eyes.
