PART I: A TALE OF TWO DRAGONS
Prologue: Lonely Birth
““I am lonely, lonely,
I was born to be lonely,
I am best so!””
-“Danse Russe,” William Carlos Williams
On top of a precarious spire in the middle of the Crystalspine Reaches sat a tiny Arcane egg. Though it hovered a few centimeters off the top of the spire, the egg was carefully balanced on the thin tip. All it took was a gust of wind to knock it off of its perch and send it tumbling down the side of the spire.
The egg bumped and rolled against the rocky sides, but didn’t crack. Dragon eggs were remarkably tough, and thanks to the force field that surrounded all Arcane eggs, it wasn’t harmed by any outside forces. It would only break when the hatchling inside of it was ready to come out. Finally, the egg rolled to a stop, still wriggling slightly.
It had been abandoned on the spire a few days ago, with its parents expecting it to die not long after. The egg was the runt of the nest, and the hatchling inside of it was expected to be unhealthy and die within a few days of hatching.
But the egg did not die. Unwillingly, they had abandoned the egg in just the right place for it to continue to incubate, saving the hatchling inside from a terrible fate. Now, it was ready to hatch.
The egg gave a few more furious wriggles. The tiny hatchling inside was determined and totally focused in its pursuit. It struggled for about an hour, before a tiny foot broke out of the shell. The work was not over, however, and the rest of the hatchling’s body took some time to come out. Once it had broken a sizeable part out of the egg, the shell, now fragile and weak from the struggle, cracked and fell open around the hatchling with a rush of fluids. The newborn hatchling sat in the middle of the broken shell, shaking her head and unsticking her wings from her sides. She was a Fae, and smaller than usual – evidence of her being the runt of her nest. Most of her was all wings and tail, and she struggled to actually get to her feet.
At first, she was confused. Hatchlings were usually met immediately by their parents after hatching, but she was alone. Surrounded by the towering spires of the Crystalspine Reaches, the tiny hatchling shivered with both cold and loneliness. The first thing she would need to do was find somewhere warm to sleep. Hatching was exhausting, and normally hatchlings would have their parents to curl up against for warmth. But this hatchling was totally alone.
The newborn made her way towards the spire from which her egg had fallen. Beneath it was a small opening, just large enough for a full-grown Fae to crawl through, and definitely large enough for her. She chirped happily, the first noise she had made since her birth, and dropped in through the opening, landing on the sandy ground. This sandy cavern would be her First Home, the walls would be her sanctuary and her only support in this cold, unforgiving world.
As she curled up to sleep for the very first time, the newborn’s life would become more incredible than she ever could have dreamed of.
