So somehow I thought it would be a good idea to do this challenge. At least it can't be as nerve-wrecking as any of the coli challenges, right?
@momelus' Alphabet Legacy Challenge
I bought the two first dergs from AH named A-something and... Well. I don't even dare to scry the offspring.
Meet Aethos, the partiarch of this looooong journey:
And *sigh* the matriarch, Amarissa...
*crickets chirping*
Krhm. So, Aethos was bought with fodder price and he has Chocolate Bar, Stone Butterfly and Maroon Underbelly. Amarissa was worth of 20k (why did I have so high max price when I didn't get that pretty derg anyway?!) and has Aqua Iridescent, Obsidian Shimmer and Ivory Crackle. Both were bought as hatchlings, so I can't even breed them for 24 days. *cries*
This will take freaking forever.

Aethos and Amarissa came FINALLY from their cooldowns and have been bred, giving me three eggs. And now we wait for them to hatch.
15th of June 2016
Well, I hatched the eggs. And I got... these...
things.
Male Skydancer with Amber Bar, Copper Butterfly and Sanguine Crackle. It looks like it has been bathing in the blood of its siblings.
Male Imperial with Radioactive Bar (what is wrong with his horns?!), Platinum Shimmer and Tan Underbelly.
And this Skydancer lady with Spring Bar, Mauve Butterfly and Cantaloupe Underbelly.
Random.org gave me number two - and by more randomizing, he got the name Betsu. So the radioactive thing with way too long cooldown is going to be my heir. Let's wait another 35 days. Hooray.
After scrolling almost 20 pages of AH I found his future mate, this Nocturne named Berwyn:
Spring Ripple, Goldenrod Shimmer and Rose Underbelly.
And guess what guys? I could actually get PRETTY hatchlings this time!
16th of July 2016
Betsu FINALLY came off from his cooldown, so I bred him. They gave me one egg. One. Egg. Well, it won't be too hard deciding the heir, then. Now I am just praying to Shadowbinder the heir gets anything else but Radioactive primary.
Also I actually sold one of Betsu's siblings and he got a good home! First of the dergs I've sold which didn't end up exalted straight away! The Skydancer girl is going to be exalted to Shadowmama during Shadow's DOM push. Byebye.
I'm not sure what I should to with the founders and pairs after I've bred them. Originally I just wanted to get rid of them, but now I've learned to kinda like both Aethos and Amarissa. They even have apparel... Berwyn (the nocturn) has also kinda nice colours, but Betsu drives me nuts with his Radioactive. On the other hand I want to keep them and see how this develops, but it would take so much lair space. Maybe I'll keep just the founders and the heirs and do something with their partners.
1st of August 2016
I had to postpone hatching the egg because Shadow DOM push thingies. Today I gave up and hatched the nest because I needed to get Betsu to Shadowbinder. (I also ended up exalting both Amarissa and Aethos. Woops. Berwyn is going to stay, tho, she accidentally got apparel and lore.)
What did I say about the Radioactive? I really pray the heir wouldn't get it? ...well...
You betrayed me, you little thing. He has Radioactive Bar / Orange Shimmer / Rose Underbelly and got the name Canelm. I really wouldn't have any extra space right now, because DOM, but I just wanted to find his partner so at least she will be ready to breed as soon as possible. And I found her, at the very first page of AH, 8kT, a 3-week-old RTB. Let me present you Cherri.
Teal Speckle (I HATE Speckle uhhh) / Aqua Current / Peach Underbelly.
And now I have some okay possible offsprings and some... not so okay.
If I get a third Radioactive in row I'm going to scream.
Now I'll just wait 30 days for that godforsaken radioactive thingy to be RTB. At least the next hair should be a Guardian, so I don't need to wait so long.
