Now Firmen,who was a Officer and a ( so so ) Gentleman
had commanded a 4 gunner drakecog flying ship since the Mesopotamian Gulf War had touched off back in 1991.
You know the Sumer Republic dragon army had invaded the
lucrative fields of fireoak stands in the State of Yiddah,the better to
pay off old war costs incurred in a aborted battle with the Assyerian
dragon folk sometime in the 1980s.
The fireoak tree ?
Well back 10.25 million years earlier when everything began with a bang the soon to be transformed lemurs had been clinging to a plain old humdrum tree that,besides growing and turning carbon
dioxide into water and oxygen,had also been providing nourishment to the lemurs who depended on it.
It got zapped by the reptilian mutator star and transformed
as well,growing spines,scale covered trunks and a major mutation
in its DNA and roots,trunks,branches and leaves that
were the plant worlds answer to a lemur turning into
a small winged firebreathing lizard.
The now more imposing fireoak tree species had at first served
to keep the proto dragon ancestor from going extinct and later
on,when a dragon civilization finally sputtered into the life
a lot of the raw stuff a dragon civilization needed to get
up and running.
As Firmen knew,the stuff he had used to travel to the parallel
world,abduct the female human and transform her
had originally come from a fireoak tree,
And since a navy of 4 gunner drakecog flying ships sails on her
supplies of fireoak leaf oil having the Yidda fireoak stands seized
by the dictator of the Assyerian Republic that
touched off the 1990 war,which spread like wildfire,setting off
other wars on Thera.
And as the commander of the little flying warship Firmen
had a habit of being called to duty.
Which left the issue of heirs if he died in the line of duty.
Back in 1990 he'd had the opportunity to start a family but things
hadn't worked out and he and the ex had broken up.
So this time,with a battle possible Firmen had got Amanda
with 3 fertilizedwyrm eggs ( he hoped ) because he might not be
coming back,If he died Amanda and her wyrms were going to be
his only means of getting a bit of himself into the future
