Biography
Luminance hatched during the Battle Royale, but was lost during the commotion; it was assumed she had gone to serve the Lightweaver, like her brothers Illuminance and Kelpbane, and, for that matter, both of her parents. Instead, she arrived at the Solar Solar's new lair in the Mirrorlight Promenade two days after the battle ended, having followed the rest of the clan by scent. Exhausted, she fell asleep next to the new nesting grounds; mysteriously, when she awoke, she was a Snapper, who would never need to sleep again. |

The dragons' only food source can't just be from coli-grinding and gathering. Do you have any dragons who garden? Vineyards? What do they grow and what do they use it for?

What happens when someone in the lair gets sick? Is there a medic they can go to? If they don't have a mate, does anyone take care of them?
Otherwise, Katyushka, Secunda, and Meteia are skilled with healing magic, Kvara and Luminance make healing potions and poultices, and if something needs to be purchased quickly and inexpensively, Geo's your guy.

Awww, hatchlings! When new hatchlings are to be born, what happens? Is a ceremony held for these hatchlings with the whole clan there? Are gifts given to them? When the hatchlings grow up, who teaches them to fly and hunt and any other skill they take interest in?
Hatchlings do tend to be doted upon, especially if they're intended to go serve Lightweaver as soldier-monks; ones who've decided they want to visit other clans (i.e. 'obtain their travel expenses' through the Auction House) don't get ignored, certainly, but since they're neither staying nor increasing the clan's glory, they don't get quite as many treats from the clan's warriors.

Some months ago, the eggs left by the various elemental deities started to hatch less frequently. This deeply concerned some dragons, especially those who believed that the non-nest-produced eggs were the reincarnation of exalted dragons who died in their deity’s service. Then Nocturne eggs also began to hatch less frequently, but the ones that did hatch weren’t any more likely or less likely to be Shadow-element, so it didn’t seem likely to be a prank by the Shadowbinder.
Parents with nests - especially parents with large nests - began to urge their children to remain in the egg, out of fear that the returned heroes had some reason to avoid hatching, and unlike usual where that only delayed hatching by a few days, now eggs were remaining unhatched for weeks on end, the unhatched dragons within still clearly alive and unharmed. As the elemental eggs began to hatch less and less often, sometimes even eggs that hadn’t been asked to wait weren’t hatching!
No few dragons were worried that this might be the end of dragons as a race, and they did their best to keep it all a secret from the Beastclans. But, here and there, prophetesses and prophets, seers and seeresses, began to suggest that far from this meaning the end of dragons, soon there would be an All-Hatching, a day of a myriad myriad hatchlings at once…

Once into the main clearing of the lair, the Solar Solar is a hive of activity: dragons gardening, fermenting vegetables, brewing beer, decocting tisanes; dragons polishing rocks, carving wood, shaping and firing clay; dragons training to fight monsters and beasts, sparring with each other, wrestling and tumbling for the fun of it. Nine months of the year, it’s mild enough to sleep outside at night, and many dragons do.
There’s several ruined structures - this part of the Mirrorlight Promenade once held seven geodesic domes, six large enough for an Imperial to stretch out their wings and one larger, arranged as the points plus the center of an asterisk. In the northwestern one, a Tundra named Sockknitter holds court: visiting dragons with the Okapi gene, Tundras who for some reason don’t fit in with the rest of the Solar Solar, and one awkward Mirror named David Ryder offer him homage as a lesser deity, vassal to the Lightweaver. This is the Laundromat; in the long space between Rockbreaker’s Ceremony and Crystalline Gala, they celebrate the Warmtoe Woolabloo; the rest of the year they knit socks and bring Sockknitter tithes of Thistles.
The center geodesic dome was the largest but has the most thoroughly ruined roof, and additionally whatever was left of the foundation has collapsed; still, it’s this structure that’s been extensively remodeled into the nesting grounds of the clan. When a pair of dragons have a nest there, they live in one of the side chambers so that the eggs can be nourished on a regular basis; whether or not there’s any active nests, Katyushka, Ojnk, Secunda, Luxon, and any of their hatchlings who haven’t left the nest, excepting Tertie, live there all the time. Coffeebean, Cherenkov, and Radiation live within the center dome most of the time, as well, and Lucita and Luminiferous have lived there since they obtained their respective Nocturne-scrolls.
The dome almost always smells strongly of coffee, because the Founders swear by incubating eggs in coffee grounds, and almost every nesting pair follows their lead. (Katyushka additionally uses droppings from her Emerald Cave Jewel to ‘activate’ the mulch that gets packed around her eggs after they’ve been settled into the bed of grounds.) Consequently, a dragon most-strongly-allied to the Progenitor Faction (such as it is) often has that aroma around them as well, and the dragons who live within the dome can’t avoid smelling like coffee without an inordinate amount of effort.

passage-of-time wrote on 2018-03-07:
If festivals really occur once every Sorniethian month, then dragon eggs really take only five days to hatch and hatchlings really only spend five days as children. What if festivals occur once every Sorniethian lunar year, instead? Brightshine Jubilee would be at the end of June, Year n, while Thundercrack Carnivale would be thirteen months later, at the end of July, Year n+1. Eggs might still only take five days to hatch - hey, it's magic - and festivals would probably still only last a quarter of a month, but hatchlings would take fifty-five days to grow to adulthood, not five.

"I don't know exactly when the gestalt formed. The Founders never told us whether it existed between the two of them before Alternifolia and I arrived, and neither of us remember whether it existed before Mirabelle arrived; we know it existed afterwards, but was she called by the gestalt, or did she contribute to the minimum number available to make it form? Candela arrived next, and it was certainly extant then, because even without the gestalt mind I myself remember him joining the gestalt.
"Then arrived Luminiferous, Lucita, and Lumen. After that Secunda, Deutere, and Deuteri, and Luminant and Luminescent, hatched; Deuteri and Luminant were foster-exchanges with other clans, for Dmitriy and Zazi, while Luminescent and Deutere had other clans paying their travel expenses. Luxon, Cherenkov, and Phosphorescence arrived shortly after. Phosphorescence was the fifteenth dragon who intended to stay, a number then noteworthy for clan arrangement; shortly after, Glowworm and Photini arrived. Of those, all who have left have gone to the Lightweaver's service, except for Deuteri and Photini; Deuteri remains with the clan who fostered him, and Photini has gone to several clans to serve as an expert warrior and diligent forager. (She isn't tempted to eat what she forages, you see, being a Ridgeback.) Phosphorescence, before his departure for the Lightweaver's service, had several nests with me, and our children with other dragons of the clan, thus tying us all together by genealogy as well as affection. Further, it was his successful use of Guard and Anticipate that earned the gestalt the achievement Honor Guard. Amongst the offspring of Photini and Alternifolia is Waterlily, and Cherenkov and Lumen's offspring are amongst Sixta's ancestors.
"Around this time - when those named here were not yet exalted - Secunda and Luxon had a nest that included Tertie; with his generation, so many dragons began to arrive that the gestalt was able to maintain a memory of its own, beyond merely maintaining itself."
