Which all begs the question
Who laid the dragon egg?
IOW who was Thanewdora's biological mother?
Now Thaneydora's earliest memory was of when she was still
a pile of primievel dragon plasm inside a egg that had only been laid hours
or perhaps minutes earlier.
Thus it was a rather foggy fuzzy visual image.
It was of a rather slender and nude nerdy looking human girl looking
on in horror at Thanew ( her egg ) and shouting
" No it can't be" lots of wailing and weeping,more upper class
latin phrases interspersed with grunts,
and then her mother had run out of the cave,still screaming "No no no I',m not a dragoness"
and somewhere in the clearing outside the cave entrance this human lass
had suddenly screamed in pain as her backbone began to creak and stretch
had yelled "NnnnaaarrgHHHH" and some increasing animalistic noises
before undergoing a involuntary transformation into a full fledged
big well built female dragon.
The beast had then bellowed in rage,spat a gout of dragons fire into the cave
clawed at the dirt with her mighty 3 fingered forepaws,banged her spiky tail
and stood up on her powerful hind legs,made a few more roars
and then flown off,never to be seen by Thanewdora again.
That was the dragonets only childhood memory of her mother.But oh what a mother.
And since dragon eggs take 333 years to hatch,long before Morgana and Sara's time.
So when Thanewdora had finally broken out of her egg,to be greeted by the sight of a
wart nosed ex-maid named "Morgy " ( powerless,penniless and on the run from the Sheriff)
and this detestable human hag had said
" Hi ootsy cootsy little dragonet,I'm your muummmyy"
the young dragonet had thought
< Not friggin likely>
And after the grownup Thanewdora had finally ditched Morgana ( who leached the dragons
natural dragon magic for her own purposes )
she'd gone investigating her origins.
And it appeared her <true dragon name > "Thanewdora" was derived from the true dragon names
of her biological parents.
She'd found her dad Thanewsbane in a cave years earlier.before the annual rutting season turned both him and her into essentially mindless mating reptiles.
He'd told her,in between his amourous romp with his harem of females,
"your mother is named Theodora McGregor,a human princess who turned into
into a dragoness whenever she ran too hard,tried to lift too heavy weights
or lost her mind"
"She was a shy scholarly sort,even as a dragoness.It seemed she didn't lose her mind during
the rutting season like the rest of us dragons.One day I was winging overhead,in my hot horny haze,when I saw her a few hundred feet above the clouds,singing some human love song in that trilling voice
of hers."
"It was the love song that did it.She was a female,I was a male,and I swooped down and slammed her down to earth,dragged her into a cave and got her properly mated."
"I left,she laid your egg,returned to human form,saw the issue from her dragoness loins before her,and couldn't
handle the truth of what she'd done"
"Her mind snapped and for centuries she was a simpleton,somehow stuck in her form as a primievel
dragoness"
"We mated many times during the ruts and dragon offspring are many.There were no human children"
It seems a wizard,to rid the world of this menacing baby dragon making machine,cursed
her with human memories and thoughts again.She now disguises herself as a male human,a fellow named
Theodore Mcgregor,the King of the East Kingdom.
'Thanewdora my dear,your real mother is the KING."
