A most interesting and insightful account of the origin of dragons! "He killed the snake to examine how it was made." This simple sentence expresses powerfully what's wrong with the likes of Morgoth. | |

Poor dragons, twisted and infected by Morgoth. I feel quite sorry for them. Yew is a very hobbity dragon now and I think he is fond of Pippin and his family (restraining himself from roasting the cat must have taken a lot of control). I still think an AU story in which Paladin brings out the family dragon to deal with the ruffians would be a winner! ;-) A lovely look at the origins of the fire-drakes, Pearl. | |

So, although Morgoth had only the darkest intentions when he created the Dragons, he made a grave mistake. And the Dragons were able to reproduce far away from the control of the Dark One and retain at least a few good "lizard qualities". It's like in "Jurassic Park": Nature always finds a way! As for Yew being a hobbity dragon: I think you're right :-) | |

So, this one was tucked in earlier in the series. Almost missed it here. Interesting to read the history of dragons told by a young dragon himself. And Yew appears to have taken on characteristics of the family that has taken him in. Most interesting! Author Reply: My mistake on the chapter listing. Making it the correct number totally went by me. I'm so glad you enjoyed this, Larner. :-) Yes, I do think Yew is becoming a rather Hobbity dragon. LOL | |

Hi Pearl, Lovely new story! I enjoyed this look at Yew and his ancestors. Well done! (I'm sorry I can't be more eloquent, but it's getting late and I need bed. I appreciated being able to get to this for my bedtime story though! *grin* Oh, by the way, just wondering why this is numbered as a second Chapter One instead of at the end of the chapter list?) Well done, I loved the story! More Yew soon please! Kaylee Author Reply: Thank you, Kaylee! I'll at least be finishing up the main Yew story. If there will be anymore after that . . . I have no idea. Someone else pointed the chapter thing out and I've fixed it. Thank you for finding this anyway. | |
