-THE FESTIVAL-

**********

Alishe picked her way through the crowds at the Hatching Festival, careful not to knock over some kid who got in her way. It was bad enough that the crowds pressed in as they did, and it completely another problem that her wings took up a lot of room...

"Hey, Miss!" A man called out over her shoulder, "Are those things real?"

"No, they're fake," She said decisively, flapping her wings once. The man looked at her strangely, then walked off.

This was the exact reason she didn't like crowds. But a festival was a festival, and she wished to attend this one anyway. Even if her presance there DID spark a few unwanted stares.

"Oh, Ma'am!"

Oh, what now...

However, as she looked up, she saw a young man running towards her through the crowd.

"Yes? What is it?" She asked him as he drew nearer.

"There is a Hatching taking place here, I'm sure you know," The young man said, smiling, "They are asking for men and women... Of the "winged" variety."

Alishe stared at him as if she had seen a ghost. Her wings rustled uncomfortably.

"... Oh, is that so?" Alishe said slowly, barely able to contain her smile, "Then show me to the grounds. I might wish to look upon this event..."

**********

Alishe stumbled out onto the sands, not quite sure what to expect. What the young man explained to her along the way was that when Edorth, the starry queen of Cathair Utopian had her last clutch, a few of her eggs, eight, to be exact, did not hatch. Those leftover eight were to be Impressed now, at this festival, which was being held for just such an occasion.

By now, the eggs were rocking, and the other Candiates for this clutch were gathering about the eggs expectantly, waiting to see which one would break shell first. Alishe moved up to join them, just as the first hatched...

-THE HATCHLING-

**********

Alishe watched as dragonet after dragonet Impressed left and right... By the time she realized what was happening, it seemed all of the eggs were broken by now... She wondered if maybe this had just been a mistake after all...

What was a mistake? A small voice inside her head entreated. Alishe looked up, finding herslf staring into a pair of bright, whirling green eyes, belonging to a large starry dragonet. The young dragon reguarded her silently as Alishe stared on in complete awe, before the young starry squaked excitedly and butted her in the chest, in the direction of the Living Caverns.

I'm hungry! Let's go! She announced cheerfully, striking off purposefully in that direction.

"Wait!" Alishe called after her new dragon, "You haven't told me your name yet!"

The young dragon turned to look back at her, and seemed to smile.

I am Shirahath, She announced boldly, Now, are you coming? I'm starving!

Yes, of course I am, Shirahath!" Alsihe said excitedly, chasing after the speedy dragonet, "Wait for me!..."
