It’s a cute baby dragon. Its markings give off an otherworldly light.Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.(Please note that it is against the site rules to give aid to a user without their permission.)```
