Another rock and hammer got set out in short order.
(Roll: 72)
Eager to get home, the swing was a good one and in a flash of light a Basilisk leapt out with a crow, wearing a purple hank around his neck.
@rentacles
(Throne's Roll: 16)
The rock promptly shattered to reveal it was only a thin shell around a large piece of pale pink gypsum.
(Altair's Roll: 80)
When the golden coatl brought his hammer down the rock flashed and... barked? And when the dust cleared and the light spots blinked away, an embarrassed Shalebuck sat on its haunched with a purple and pink ribbons tied on. Off to the side Lesinraa giggled mischevously.
@NotHarvard
"Sure, brother, no problem," sang Saaheten, and got a rock and hammer placed in front of him.
(Roll: 48)
The rock popped open after a fissure was created and pried apart. A little glass vial full of red liquid clattered out and roll a bit. "Might be useful down there! Never know what can happen in caves."
@FoolishRay
"Yes, little sister," Sing said with a smile, and Lesinraa reached forward to give her rock and hammer. "Good strength to you!"
(Roll: 36)
The Imp fledge had to take a few swings but eventually her stone cracked open to reveal a bright, color shifting ore.

"Raa, Saa," he said importantly. The daughter and granddaughter smirked and fumed in turns at their pet names. "Fetch the good boulders." They nodded, and dug into the pile to pull out the real stones and heave them up within the mirror's reach.
(Ryuuten's Roll: 99!)
The boulder separated like butter and in a splash of water a trilling sprite shot out carrying pearls set in patina'd metal.
(Ryuugan's Roll: 73)
The other mirror also got through her rock without making much of a fuss and was almost blown over by a rush of purple petals that kept swirling long after the boulder had been opened.
@Sylvilagus
"Of course, brother and sister!" Mierte skittered over before he could serve them and he laid out rocks. He had two of the smaller hammers in hand as he stepped off to the side in case the hatchlings found they weren't as heroically strong as they believed.
(Carmine's Roll: 38)
The boy bounded up and down on his for a while, almost enough to drive the adults insane. But just as he was starting to lose interest the rock cracked open as Sing winked at it and he toppled off to one side with a squeak and chunk chased with silver.
(Blood's Roll: 29)
The girl gnawed away, slowly flaking bits off, until they started turning to mud in her mouth and she spit it out with many chirping complaints. Saaheten gave it a nudge with her tail and it popped open to allow a few crystals to spill out.
@SenchaDrake
"Oh yes," Lesinraa answered the young wildclaw. "Ela has mentioned there are ice kelp fields and practically the same species lives there. He just needs to feed up and his layer of blubber will be good enough in no time!"
@Schefflera
(Malzahar's Roll: 9)
The colorful fae smashed open an equally colorful stone full of glowing crystal.
(Rosetta's Roll: 54)
Strips of dusty red fabric spun out of her stone as soon as she had it open.
(Alala's Roll: 11)
The colorful mirror's rippling cry was met with equally rippling folds of blue cloth.
"Well struck!" giggled Iunyzha.
@Starshina24
As the last of the fair goers were starting to trickle home and various stalls were putting up lanterns to start the pull down of their tents and stands, Sing and family were still sitting and humming together while they took care of the last of their patrons. "Almost, sister, but the Earth always has stones to turn!" A hammer and rock found their way in front of Benia.
(Roll: 33)
After a few strikes her stone broke open to reveal crystals glittering in the latern lights, the same color as the ones that crusted her body.
The last dragon away with their prize, sing looked around at his ladies. "I supposed it might be time to fold up and go home." Iunyzha looked back at the sun setting to the side of the Pillar, leaving a golden spear piercing into the heavens and some of the inventive murals etching glowing patterns into the darkness in each of the elemental patterns as gem-paints caught and refracted the sun around the bend.
"Mmmm, may be," she hummed sweetly, and turned back to reach up and gently lick his cheek and ruffle her whiskers against his neck. "But we can sit a spell..." Mierte returned to Saaheten and fluttered into her mane to snuggle close wth a sigh, Lesinraa grinned at them, and Sing looked down at his delicate mate as he hooked her close with a wing.
"Mmmm, may be," he breathed, and kissed her lovely arcane nose.
