The Hatchlings
Fabled explorer Daryth Kennedy has travelled the mountains, swamps, plains and islands of Second Life cataloguing many new species, breeds and types of dragon. Whilst on these travels Daryth encountered the youngest of the dragons, the hatchlings. Collated here for the first time in one location are her journal entries and wisdom on these cute yet mischievous young dragons:
Daryth's journals are faded and worn and peeling at the edges, with some pages missing entirely. Sometimes all that can be deciphered is a scant sentence or single word.
