Hattema young are loud and aggressive but quite fragile and small, so they're mostly ignored. Their partner mages spoil them anyway with fried bugs and cheek scritches. Highly intelligent, they pick up quickly on the language their mage speaks, and many end up able to fluently communicate in that language. As soon as they are large enough to fly, they begin taking on weight to build strength to carry a rider.
Magi Guron discovered these strange creatures on one of his many trips up and down the coastline between the Ixan jungle and Silva forest. Of course, the locals knew of the hattema, having long feared and respected them as soothsayers owing to their future-seeing eyes. Seeing is all their eyes do, but the humans don't know that and the hattema are happy to take their offerings anyway, giving flimsy "fortunes" and "advice" in return. But did Guron listen to the whisperings among the locals, whispers that people had disappeared while at the soothsayer's lair, before introducing some to the Keep and declaring such old and rare creatures needed conservation efforts? He hasn't been seen since going back.
