T'was the night before ... the eve of feast, a time of joyous celebration, when I wandered our abode. Using every aspect of my sensorium I could not detect any movement with the place, even the infestation of small scurrying creatures who sought refuge from the harsh winter cold were still. The moltings were waiting in the chamber in anticipation of the Feast day to come.
The children were ... safely and warmly nested in the nursery as I entered and scurried over their shiny new forms that glistened from the light filtering through the skylights overhead. I checked the guards and adjusted the restraints on each of the thirty youngsters so that they would rest undisturbed by the others.
