Chapter #3
"I'll be your egg watcher."
by: Unknown
"Splendid!" She says as she picks you up, places you in her palm, and carries you out of the room. You marvel at the palace halls as she carries you. Marble columns support the ceiling, intricate paintings cover the walls, depicting other anthro women in various stories. She stops between two columns and presses her hand against the wall.
The wall swings back to reveal a hidden passage! The passage is lined with torches, and a spiraling staircase going down below the palace. She begins descending the stairs, your eyes adjusting to the dim light. When she reaches the bottom of the stairs, you see a clutch of six eggs, each of them as big as an SUV.
She sets you down on the floor, and gather all of her eggs into a group. Then, she places them in the middle of the room, in the the center of a pile of wood. She opens her mouth and a jet of flame shoot out, igniting the wood.
"Now, make sure that fire stays burning. It will keep my hatchlings warm, and also determine their gender. I would prefer that you keep it at high heat, as I want them to be female." She points to the corner, and you see an enormous stock of wood for the fire. "Restock the flame every few hours or so." She continues. "That should keep it hot enough. I'll send some dinner down for you later. Bye!" And she leaves.
You sit and stare at the fire, hoping you don't screw this up. If you don't follow her orders, you don't want to think what she could do. As the flames glow, you see the eggs become somewhat transparent. You can make out the silouhetes of the baby dragons inside. You really hope that when they hatch, they don't mistake you for their first meal.
After some horus of watching them, you restock the flames, and lay down and fall asleep.
