Egg Zen

October 25, 2008 by Betsy Bird   2 comments

I’ve not much time to post today.  I’m holding a 90s Prom Party tonight (long story) and need to figure out how to adequately spike my own punch.

In the meantime, why don’t you just sit and ponder these pictures of the Paolini Brisingr egg, currently housed in my library.  I only recently came in contact with it.  Were I a better photographer I could probably do something with these shots.  As it is, they’ll just have to stand on their own.

    Is the egg being powered by the ancient plug of Vroengard or just the stump? Or is it half dragon egg/half indoor fountain?

    Re: power – Ancient plug o’ Vroengard. No fountain that I can tell (we are a library, after all) but once we figure out how to turn it on again it should do…. something.
