Ice blue eyes had been focused upon one thing. The cookie she'd been given. The little decorated dragon confection much too pretty to eat.
She had managed to keep the sweet hidden away from the hatchlings, and now peeked toward her slumbering mate. A gentle nuzzle to his neck, before carefully picking up the blue scaled cookie within her jaws.
Light from the crystals embedded within the cavern walls as she moved toward a single tunnel. The very tunnel they had blocked off months before.
All she needed was a single wishing crystal...
Peeking around the lair a moment, making sure none had followed. She'd dig carefully. Talons worked at stone until she had cleared just enough for this single purpose.
The cookie soon was nestled within the small cavern she had carved out. The wishing crystals still giving off a magical pulse. She could feel it in her blood.
Ice blue eyes closing just for a moment...A silent wish sent.
She kept watch all this time, making sure none of the little ones curiosity got the better of them.
Most had been resting. while others played tag around another chamber. A smile as she listened to the singsong voices. Then ice blue eyes returned to the small cavern she'd dug.
Nothing at first. Then suddenly, there was movement. A tiny blue snout poking out, snuffling as a first breath was taken. A smile as her snout stretched to the tiny one, and soon she ushered the hatchling away. A gentle nuzzle to the newest dragonling, before burying the crystal cavern once more.
