Station Of Seers : 31

When he made it back to the dome, Asanka concealed the egg in a cupboard at the back of his bedroom. He knew he'd be in trouble if his mother or any of the seers found out about his little escapade on the cliff tops, yet he was reluctant to give up his hard won trophy. What he hadn't anticipated though, was that in the warmth of a nearby air vent the egg would hatch. The first thing he knew about it was the high plaintive cry; a sort of "soo, soo, soo, sook" sound. He opened the cupboard door to find the alegoyle chick looking up at him and clearly pleading for food. Unsure what to do, the boy found a bowl and made up a grain mash with warm water. It wasn't the kind of thing an alegoyle chick should be eating he was sure but it was the best he could do.
