As the eggs came, Ceral took them as they were handed over to him. He wasn't really sure where a good place to take them would be until he remembered a small lake not too far off; it wasn't too deep, but it was deep enough that hopefully, the scientists and other staff wouldn't think to look there when the news broke (because the idea of all of these kits being a miscarriage would definitely sound preposterous). He shifted each time he went to the lake, tucking the eggs in a small hole he'd dug up with his claws. Luckily there weren't any predators in the lake, and he'd have to come back often to make sure they didn't get eaten... because that would be a real travesty, if he were to ever let that happen.
"How long do eggs take to hatch?" Ceral asked on a trip back, frowning as he took some more of the slimy eggs. He didn't want to not be there when they hatched, but he also knew he wouldn't be able to stay under the lake forever. He could already feel some of them moving around beneath the shell, so that meant they'd be ready soon, right? Or so he thought. He was no expert on eggs. Hell, all this made him worried for his own clutch, and the comment earlier from Ivy about warning him not to do this wasn't of much reassurance.
