"Nay, not even the dragonets were this tiny, even when freshly hatched. The one I personally traveled with was nearly as long as a man." He can't help but feel nostalgic, a stab of pain going through his heart as the idea that it might all be lost drifts into his mind again. "And about three hundred years my senior, which he declined to let me forget."
He can't help but notice that these ones are different, as much as they physically remind him of dragonets.
"Apparently the little ones here like the follow their larger brethren, mining their scales for 'crunchies' and basking in their protection." He laughs softly. "Not a bad arrangement, all told. Which, I suppose, is what I have to thank for their persistent attentions."
