Zydell felt his heart leap when he spotted a shape flying through the trees and landing before him. Slowly he crawled out from under the roots. His whole body ached, not to mention the hunger that was nipping at his stomach. The large female looked down at him and smiled, her warm breath blew over him and a blue aura engulfed the small male for a second before vanishing, along with all his cuts. Though the scars were still clear over his soft skin he felt better, stronger. The female offered him a kind look before taking back off into the sky. He had to find food, that was the next step, but no sooner had he thought this his mother returned with a large deer carcass. Zydell fed on the meal hungrily, ripping off pieces of fresh meat. Once he was full, he noticed that his mother had vanished once more, but this time he felt calmer and more certain of the world around him. The small hatchling crawled back under the roots of the tree and closed his eyes longing for a peaceful sleep after such a busy day.
