=Draconic Plain=
"All right Shivnos what story would you like to hear?" An elderly dragon asks whilst looking at a young dragon almost as big as him.
"Can you tell me about the First Guard?" Shivnos asked.
"Haven't I told you about the First Guard before, what knowledge do you seek that would bring you back to it?" The older dragon asked.
"You never told me how the First Guard earned their title. That's what I seek teacher." Shivnos answered honestly.
"So you seek the beginning of his story, very well I will tell you what I know." his teacher responded. "I guess I should tell you that this story starts before our plain was created."
"You mean before The Schism?" Shivnos asked.
"Yes it was before The Schism but please keep your questions until I have finished." his teacher replied. "You see before The Schism and before we had a ruler there was no need for a Guard so the First started out with his siblings and that he watched over them despite being the youngest of his brood. He grew up within the Northwestern reaches of Narn Kuldor. While don't know whether or not the First was a colossus or a pygmy we do know that he was fire dragon."
[It's dark, can anyone here me?]
"Teacher did you hear that?" Shivnos asked looking around as if something fell.
"I didn't hear anything, what is it the you heard?" his teacher asked.
"It was a voice it sounded scared. Like something was hunting it in the darkness." Shivnos answered with a tinge of worry in his voice.
[Hello anyone I'm scared it's really dark.]
"There it is again! Something has whoever this is really scared. Is there anything you can do?" Shivnos asked almost panicking at this point.
"I can teach you how to use telepathy so you can reach out to whoever this is. That is all I can do seeing as how this person seems to have reached out to you for help" his teacher replied.
Meanwhile in another part of the palace a dragon is running towards the royal library pausing just outside the door to briefly compose himself. Steeling his nerves he knocks and awaits an answer.
"Enter." a aged voice calls from within.
"Your majesty the egg has moved." the messenger replied.
"Tashin I've told you not to worry about formalities when it's just you and my family." The king replied calmly.
"You say that formalities matter yet here you are rejecting them Aran." Tashin said with a hint of annoyance.
"Formalities do matter yet there are times when one need not worry about them." Aran said. "Now then go tell Sanya about the egg she should be in the garden, I'll go get Shivnos from his lessons."
"At your command" Tashin says before leaving to inform Sanya.
Aran goes to get Shivnos from his lessons in the Eastern wing of the palace. Thinking about the possible names this hatchling can receive
"Alfred how has Shivnos been doing under your instruction?" Aran asked
"Young Shivnos has been doing well with his lessons but that is not important right now. I must ask, your majesty what brings you to my humble classroom?" Alfred asked
"It's about his sibling the egg moved." Aran answered
"Then it is a day to celebrate! Shivnos pause your practice! It's about time for you to welcome a new family member!" Alfred called out.
"Does this mean the egg moved?!" Shivnos called out unable to contain his excitement however, he still remembers the voice that called out. "I can't go yet I still need to master basic telepathy."
"Telepathy?" Aran asks Alfred with slight surprise.
"Your majesty young Shivnos heard a cry for help through telepathy during our lessons today." Alfred answered Aran's question honestly.
"I see. Well Shivnos there will be time to practice telepathy later, for now we need to get to the Incubation Chamber. Tashin should have informed your mother by now" Aran said somewhat understanding Shivnos' position but unwilling to miss the hatching.
"Ok father, but what about the voice?" Shivnos said in agreement but also unable to forget the cry for help from earlier.
"Your mother and I will help you learn telepathy later. For now we have to greet a new family member." Aran replied willing to aid his son.
As they near the Incubation Chamber they see both Sanya and Tashin waiting outside of it. "Tashin stand guard, we will call for you when the egg has hatched." Aran said not wanting to waste time.
"As you command my liege." Tashin replies before assuming position next to the door.
Aran, Sanya and Shivnos enter a circular room with a solitary pedestal in the center of it, atop the pedestal sat a pure silver egg. As they near the egg a projection of a dragon appears over it and descends slowly until it lands upon the egg. After the projection lands a spiderweb of energy starts to spread across the surface of the egg until it encompasses the entire surface of it, after the energy finishes spreading the dragon fades and the web burns into the egg's surface. The egg then crumbles and in the shards of it stand a girl with silver hair and hetero-chromatic eyes
After shielding her eyes from the sudden change in brightness she notices three dragons standing before her, the one to her left is green with piercing gold eyes and a aura of youth and inexperience despite being the second largest in the room, the one directly in front of her is pale blue with lavender eyes and a maternal aura around it, finally the one to her right is navy blue with cyan eyes and seems deep in thought about the current situation.
The navy blue one mutters, "She's human born, the clans cannot know of this."
The green one speaks next, "Father what do you mean by human born? She's the Heir right?"
Finally the pale blue one speaks, "Shivnos being human born is a rare occurrence within our race and is pretty self-explanatory, as you can see when one is human born they are in their human body as soon as they hatch. She is the Heir the mark sits on her right shoulder. Moreover Aran I'm more concerned by the fact that your more worried about her being human born and not the the fact that the projection and energy that cracked the egg was soul fire."
(Who are you? Where am I?) A voice calls out.
All three look at her with shock. Shivnos is the first to break the silence "You're the voice that called out earlier!"
"We are your family. Also Aran do you have a name picked for our new member?" Sanya asks after giving a brief answer.
"I was anticipating a great dragon to be our Heir not a human born however, I do have a name for her. Young lass your name is Shiri and your time spent within this plain will be short." Aran says while bringing his head to her level.
"Father what do you mean her time here will be short?" Shivnos asks confused as to why the Heir will be spending little time in the realm.
"There has been a rule in place for almost as long as our plain has existed, that rule states that all human born are to be sent to the Mortal Plain after fifteen years." Aran explained.
"Wait if she's being sent to the Mortal Plain will I go with her?" Shivnos asked suddenly panicking that he would leave the Heir's side.
"You will go with her Shivnos as you are her Guard and using my authority as King she will be able to stay here longer." Aran said calming Shivnos down considerably. "Now then let us get Tashin and inform him of the current situation."
After informing Tashin of the Heir being human born Aran goes to speak with his advisers. While Sanya tells Shivnos that she'll take care of Shiri until it's time for them to leave for the Mortal Plain.
