She woke up early the next morning. She was in a hurry to get back to where she had left the egg. She looked at her reflection in the mirror, her wavy long her resembled the ocean waves, while the color was like sand. She pulled on her leggings and then her skirt, it was longer on the sides; after that she put on her shirt, it wasn't tight-fitted but rather hang lose on her body so she always wore a belt on top of it. Lastly she pulled out from a drawer a silver chain, and hanging on the end of it was a beautiful cabochon-cut lilac kunzite. She started singing until the chain formed a circlet for her brow which had little flowers all over it, and in the center the kunzite. She couldn't help but wonder the resemblance of her gem and the egg. When she was finally ready she went down to get her breakfast. It consisted of many different types of berries and tea. Once she was done eating she went out of her two-story tree house. She had built it on top of a tree so she would be able to enjoy the view of the ocean which was near by. In order to access it she made a staircase along the tree trunk.

She walked quickly through the path that led out of the city. When she was walking she was forced to stop many times and talk to other elves, not wanting to seem rude. Once she was out of the city she ran to the waterfall, when she was there she found the hole where the egg was. She took off the net of leaves she has weaved in order to cover the egg and put the egg on her laps. She wanted to know more about it, so she started inspecting it. As she held it in her hands she heard a faint "click" she new the sound had come from the egg, then there came another one, and another one. Each time the sound was louder. Then a small crack appeared on the smooth surface, it got bigger and formed a circle. Suddenly a small lilac head pushed the circle and small eyes were looking at the elf in wonder. Then it moved and started squirming until all of its body was free. The entire animal was lilac, except for a small diamond in between its eyes that was white and it was covered in scales. She sent a thought towards the creature Hello my name is Elyssa, she said in the ancient language. The creature just looked at her in wonder and amazement. From its mind she could perceive only smells, images, but not a concrete thought. Elyssa wondered what it was; she had never seen anything like it in all Alalea. The only explanation she could think of was the dragons the elves has found in Alagaesia. She didn't know much about them, only that they had killed many elves; but the little creature that stood in front of her didn't look violent at all, actually it looked quite friendly. She reached out and touched it, when her hand was in contact with its snout a horrible pain swept through her and she passed out. As the pain subsided she regained consciousness; she looked at her hand with which she had touched the dragon, and there on her palm was a silver mark.

I must keep the dragon hidden, otherwise an elf might kill it or something may happen to it. Once it grows we will fly to Alagaesia and never return. There it will be safe I'm sure, she thought as she looked into its little eyes. It was a hard decision, but she couldn't explain why she felt as if she has to protect her dragon. As she was thinking of all that that decision would imply the dragon got up and walked to a place where there was a rodent hole. It poked its head inside, trapped a mouse and ate it. Elyssa spent most of the day there with her dragon, trying to understand it better. When she cast a spell she realized that her palm glowed and produced a lilac light when she did. Once the sun was setting she made a nest for the dragon and cast many spells in order to prevent someone seeing it and the dragon escaping. I will come back tomorrow, she promised it.
