“My thoughts, as I watch the hatchlings crane their necks to see better. It seemed appropriate.”
“My beloved has become a philosopher.”

“An enigma who loves you, and lives only to see our hatchlings thrive,” AuRon said aloud, looking at her.
She took a deep breath and spread her wings a little.
“Hatchlings,” Natasatch said. “Mind each other and enjoy the ceremonies. Your father and I are going to fly for a bit, so that we might see events better.”
Together, they soared.
