Prologue
A large silvery Icewing with streaks of blue running down his sides sat beside a Rainwing who was the colour of mango with orange streaks under her eyes, both were looking at a single egg that the Rainwing was curled up around, cracks were already starting to appear on its surface.
Glacier had never felt more happy than he was at this moment, he was about to witness the hatching of the first egg he would have with his mate Dandelion. Their love was a forbidden one on so many levels, an Icewing and a Rainwing certainly couldn't be together, but didn't care, those haughty Icewings in the royal palace could go and stuff themselves, especially his mother Frost. No one could understand why a first circle dragon with such a bright future ahead of him would chuck it all away and run off, but Glacier had never felt like he fit in there, the other dragons were selfish, rude and arrogant, thinking only of how they could better their position in the rankings.
And then there was his mother, the quiet brooding, yet underneath a seething ball of rage dragoness who saw him only as a tool, a means to an end so it were, if him leaving knocked her down a peg or two in the rankings then he was glad of it.
As the cracks on the egg spread further, a piece of the shell fell a away and a cute little snout popped out, giving him a first look at their fist hatch-ling. It looked like an Icewing as far as he could tell, with blue scales, the colour of water or clear sky and darker blue spines, however, around the blues, she had two pink streaks staring from the tip of her snout and curving up and around her eyes, behind her ears were two frills similar to those of a Rainwing and there were several more pink dots going down her neck, her legs, her body and her tail which ended in an Icewing's sharp barbed point.
As he looked at his beautiful hatch-ling, he couldn't help but hear Frost's voice in his head shouting "It's an abomination! Kill it you foolish sack of scales!" He looked down as the young dragonet looked up at them, mewing cutely as it wondered what this strange new world was it at had emerged into, he smiled as he watched it curiously flap its wings and try to bite its tail.
"Isn't it so cute and wonderful!" Dandelion exclaimed, bringing him back to the present."That she is, just like her mother." He replied, smiling and lovingly nuzzling her neck. "What should we name her?" Dandilion asked, catching Glacier off-guard, the pair had been discussing names for weeks, but now he couldn't quite think of any. "M...maybe Snow?" he suggested. "Sneww! Snew!" The hatch-ling shouted enthusiastically, causing both of them to laugh.
Suddenly, the storm outside broke, lightning flashed and rain started pouring down. The young hatch-ling ran and cowered under a table, obviously scared from the loud noises. "Hmmm, how about combining your Snow with a tropical storm, Snowstorm?" Dandelion suggested. "Hmmm...I like it, welcome to the world Snowstorm, my beautiful bundle of joy."
