Now Sir Gregory Quark had known that his nephew was sterile,hence when Dorothea
had started yielding red eyed babies,starting with Philly,he'd know
something was amiss.
Either Dorothea was doing the local boys
or
she wasn't human.
Basically Theodores exposure to the Fast Light had transformed the atoms he'd been made out of
into the stuff Fast Light was made out of.
Dorothea was a sentient collection of self directed Fast Light.
As were her children,
Which would mean Philly here was her own powerhouse of Fast Light,with
nerves,muscle,bone and tissue all composed of light.
A self directed faily solid hologram,by todays terminology.
So Quark hung one of his modiefied H3 chronomarers aroud her neck and
asked her to imagine she was projecting a beam of light and that
the light was shaping itself into the form of a snarling big ferocious dragon,much like
the one he showed her in the woodcut from the Laidley Worm
broadsheet
As he watched,a blazing beam of Fast Light flowed out of Phillys
head and curved and snaked about the laboratory before settling near the floor and expanding and resolving
itself into the shape of a loudly roaring big muscled scaly beast coughing
vast quantities of fire directly at Sir Gregory Quark.
After his initial scream of terror and pain,he realized the fire carried now heat or force
to it,Quark recovered and stared at the young girl with the umbilical cord connecting
her to the furiously panting and floor gouging dragon made of light.
"Okay old boy,do you really want to go ahead with this" said Quark to himself as he went to a wardrobe where he'd stored some
costumed outfits he'd had designed during one of his earlier
periods of romantic adventurous foolishness.
He selected a suitable Superheroine outfit for Philly,and chose a foppish Green Archer
outfit for himself.
Then he went to fetch a longbow and some arrows with Fast Light containing arrows and
the Laidley Worm went forth to rescue Justin Quark from the Kings Men...
