For centuries, among the serpent empires beneath Lord Urzan's gaze, there existed a nature among the serpent clan. The delivery of an egg was never the burden of one mate alone.
It belonged to two souls. Two bodies and two hearts bound by fate because the serpent's nature itself was possessive, protective, and ancient.
When the time came for a consort to deliver an egg, the Alpha serpent would never leave their side. Never, not for war, not for duty, and not even for death itself if nature allowed otherwise.
The Alpha would return to their original serpent form and coil protectively around their consort. Massive scales are becoming a living sanctuary; their tail would wrap gently around the omega's body, holding, protecting, and supporting.
