The first whelp arrived in a joyous display of ceremony. A parade of dragons gathered among the ivy-clad trellises to greet the young one.
The egg belonged to a humble red dragon who supervised the temperature of the life pools. Who better to determine the right amount of heat than a mother? She gently breathed fire until the ambience was just right.
When the blessed moment came, she lovingly awaited her child, as did the gathered assembly. Silence surrounded her until the shell finally cracked! The tiny, triumphant sound elicited a cheer from the gathered throng. Even now, the joyous display echoes in my heart.
I remember the Dragon Queen bowing her head, tears in her eyes. Not of sadness or sorrow, but the joy of a purpose at last fulfilled.
