Is Yanu swallowing Eyra to protect him?? I NEED TO KNOWW

Yea, they have a pocket in their stomachs or something for their mates. It basically makes the mate immortal. There's another story where a dragon swallowed his mate forcefully. The mate doesn't have memories of it... I

Eyra became basically immortal when Yanu gave him part of his stone earlier. the stomach pouch is just an additional mean of protection.

Oh!.I forgot about that.
