She hears a child scream. She sees a dragon waking up next to his dead parent and dying next to him.

   She wakes up in a cold sweat. She walks outside and sees that it is still dark. She sighs and picks up he pad and paper and writes a letter to the council. She finishes it and calls for her owl. She smiles as the owl arrives and she gives it some food. She ties the letter to her foot and sends her off.
  
   She walks to the edge of the cliff and jumps off and flies to the fortress. She lands outside and runs inside. She walks to dragons and the barely alive Storm lifts his head to see her. She nods and he gives a silent thanks and he lays down, now ready to let go.
  
   Eilla rubs Kalith's head and picks him up and holds him in her arms and walks out of the fortress. She looks up to her cliff and flies up while thinking about how she is going to tell him about what happened. She lands on her cliff and takes him to her cave. She lays him down in her bed and covers him up. She grabs her art supplies and goes to her easel to paint the time away. She eventually falls asleep in her easel chair.
  
   The bright noonday sun rouses the dragoness from her sleep and she gets up and looks at her surroundings noticing that she fell asleep on her easel again. She sighs and checks the easel to make sure that she didn't damage anything. When she was satisfied that everything was undamaged, she went to the edge of the cliff ready to hunt for today's meal. She spreads her wings ready to leap from the cliff when sees the smoking fortress. She gasps and staggers backwards remembering everything that happened the day before and faints
  
   She recovers a few minutes later with everything fresh in her mind. She gets up and decides that the first thing she should do is check on Kalith. She walks to her cave and sees the still sleeping form of the child. She smiles a bit, feeling her instincts come in as she adjusts his covers and gives him a kiss on his head. She then realizes that Storm never told her Kaliths age so she rubs his neck to check. She counts 15 complete ridges on his neck and rubs the 20 on her own neck. She then hears her stomach growl and deciding to do something about it, she turns to leave to go hunt but looks back for a minute. "Don't you dare wake up without me." She turns and goes to the cliff and takes off.
