Basically what wanda said xD
The lore set down from Helovia's predecessors is that sometimes companions choose to bond their offspring to our characters. As Neo says, Nid chose to give her offspring to a war-minded equine like herself, so it's not unfeasible that other companions here would optionally give their offspring to a character for protection or because they know the benefits the bond can bring (as wanda mentions, it's pretty awesome for the companions involved). Essentially it's the same choice as the gods are making - to bond a companion for the mutual benefit of it and its bonded. I don't see how having an onsite family affects that? You may not be saving their life but you're giving them protection and love, which is the same whether they have family or not.
The scenario I'm suggesting is essentially the same thing as most drops anyway. If Cynder had an egg with an NPC wild dragon (as initially planned, I just thought it would be cool to offer someone with a played male dragon a chance to see an active offspring) and gave the egg to wanda's twin before she leaves to offsiteville, the egg still has no onsite parents, which to me is pretty much the same as a dragon abandoning their egg to then be found by an equine. The only difference is that she's optionally given the egg with the purpose of bonding, rather than abandoning it to death, because of all the advantages she's had from her particular bonding that she wants to share with her offspring c:
