Prologue
---------------
Veiled by the cover of darkness the night has to offer, a lone figure walks. His thoughts are to himself, rather silent on his way to an unknown destination. The closest town, the bandit and gang-ridden town of Rogueport, loitering the dark scenery of night with dots of lights. The figure stops, looking at it from a distance, standing there for a few moments. His gaze slips off to the side, a rather dense forest seemed much more appropriate for his intentions.
A small clearing, it would have to do. The figure still veiled by the lack of light around him bends over. He takes a few moments, looking at something near the ground in front of him, and then rises to his feet once more. Indecisive of his decision to carry out what he's doing, he stands there quietly, thoughts passing through his head. After a good moment, he lowers again, murmuring something inaudibly before rising up. Turning his back, his cape flows a bit with his movement, as he slowly walks away from the clearing. He gazes back towards the clearing one last time, staring at what he left behind, a single yoshi egg, dotted light blue.
His mind was set, as he walks off, leaving the hatchling-to-be behind to the hands of fate.
******
Weeks have passed, many moons since the veiled figure treaded through the forest soil. The weather has taken a turn for the worst since, clouds menacing to rain at any moment almost as if at will. Light is trying to pierce through the grey skies, slowly starting to illuminate from one horizon to the other. Silence reigned; the only faint sound would come from that same clearing where events unfolded weeks prior.
A small cracking sound, followed by another, and another were coming from the lone egg that was left behind. This egg slowly hatching is quite a surprising feat itself considering the lack of any outside care and attention given to it. A small, round, light blue nose pokes out of its eggshell, taking its first breath of life this world has to offer to it. Little by little the infant makes his way out of its egg, and makes its beginning on the journey of life.
As if on cue, rain starts to fall from the sky.
