Re: [The dragon's lair]
[It's a long struggle, but it widens the crack and pushes it's head out...
The creature there is... about your size, if not a little taller. Slimy and slick from the interior of the egg, it is breaking its way free in short bursts of activity amidst small periods of rest. Finally it rests, collapsing near the shell, bluegreen scales bright slick.
The mother spends half of her time encouraging or picking away the bits of shell, or gathering some of the carcasses and dragging them closer.]
