Present Day
When Sylvin returned to the dragon��s nest after his patrol and intimidation of the humans within the Zendayis castle, Sepher, Valirian and Alaeres were playing cards whilst Ceila watched on with her customary adoration of the blue dragon, pressed tightly to his back, the blue and green of their hair mixing into an oceanic tangle that caused Sylvin to pause as he speculated what the blending of their genes would produce.
He turned his attention to where the two reds fussed over the eggs. ��All is well?��
��They are close,�� Rielle told him, her hands on the shell of one and her red hair falling over her shoulder and the egg which was almost as big as she was. ��The shells are opaque now and I can feel movement within,�� her eyes were wide, and the red iris was dominated by the pupil.
Sylvin laid his hands on the egg and closed his eyes. There was a sense of something large moving within, he thought. ��I feel it,�� he agreed. ��But I am not an expert.��
