The collection of 1960s NASA walking computers known as Overmind could see that if the ice age
didn't let up,all that would left of the human race when the ice melted away would be about 500
cold stiff dead human-reptiles.The humans who turned themselves into Atlantean dragons just didn't
have the spirit required to survive another eternity in suspended dragon animation.
It just so happened in a mythical time before Atlantic there had been rumours of 'War Beasts"
that some mad genegeneer had cooked up.DoomsDay War 1 had appeared and ended the reign of the War
Beasts,however the plans had been secretly archived in Overmind's ancestors...
Thus it came to be that some of the peacefully sleeping covered in ice dragons in
Atlantis were covertly altered by Overmind to turn them into War Beasts.Overmind
knew it would be practically impossible to return such altered dragons to their
former humanity,so it selected its candidates for the process randomly.Overmind had determined that
such altered dragons would generate enough internal heat to keep themselves and two other
nearby normal human-dragons alive till the ice melted away.
Gender selectionand new age and pregnancy were also chosen randomly.
So it was that the family of Dr Izzac Quinn went into their abode together as small nervous dragons
and came out of the end of the ice age forever torn asunder...where Dr Izzac Quinn had lain
down his scaly reptilian length now awakened a furiously huffing female War Meast-a true dragon.
