<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #4000FF">"I doubt that we shall be teaching much. I have felt the faint rumblings of the volcano. Have you not felt them?" The Lore master asked as she stood up.<br/>"But we should get what sleep we can. Thank you for dinner. I'll sleep a few hours after checking on Lily and her dragonling then mine.. We are nearly out of cut up meat. Would you be so kind as to help me cut up more meat in the warehouse? There is a deep basement cellar where it is kept. I'll cut up a bucket full for each person then leave a slab outside each cave. I need to show everyone how to move the rock to block the doorway as well. All of that in a few hours. Good sleep, River." Lore Master stifled a yawn as she left. <br/><br/>When she entered she found the greyling but no Lily. However as tiny as Lily was she could have slept under the greyling's wing easily.<br/>She checked on her own, the pygmy and xenica were curled up in one box while the greyling was asleep in her box. She smiled and laid down on top of her bed for a while.</span><br/><br/><br/>A while later......<br/><span style="color: #80FF00">Ixonia hear cries of her hatchlings wanting food. They were her darling little babies. The Xenica Female was green and the Pygmy Female was grey. She wanted good names for them but now she had to feed them. The Xenica Female could feed herself but since the Pygmy Female's eyes were still closed like a bird's eyes, she had to feed her. As she fed the Pygmy Female, she thought of perfect names for them and she could remember them.<br/>"You are Misty Lady because you remind me of the mists on the moors. And you are Lady Esmeralda because you remind me of an emerald that I once saw and wished I could have. I hope that you have enough to eat, my little ones. I will need to keep a journal on you and how each of you grow." Ixonia spoke as she petted each one as she heard their purrings yet there was another voice calling her...... Not here but near by......</span></span>
