In a swirling mist, iridescent shapes can be seen that appear and disappear as they form and then return to the fog. Surrounded and nearly covered by the mist, toward the bottom of the egg is the rounded body of a land turtle, its feet carefully pulled in while the head just barely moves out of the shell, curiously glancing around. Even where the turtle can be seen, it is reflected and obscured by the spiraling, moving fog that seems to glow with all colors in the midst of its opaque whiteness leaving a glittery, gleaming tint to the shell.
Grandfather Turtle Blue
Bluish grey, the dusky hide of this dragon seems marred and brushed with a soft, fogging iridescence that hides the true color. The blue hue deepens as it spreads back and down, the coloring slowly growing more intense until his belly and throat line are touched in shades of deep navy. His head is narrow and sharply pointed, situated on a very short neck while his chest and back are broad and stolidly built before his form ends abruptly with an oddly shortened tail, and the barest hint of a tail spade. Short thick forearms and haunches support him, his talons thick and deep navy over the lighter blue paws. His wings are the same dusky blue, fading nearly into the same color that adorns his back and only the slight hint of wingspars differentiates the wingsails from his body and only on close examination can the soft whorls and spirals be seen in the thin hide.
