ros was frightened to see such a powerful ship in the hands of humans, but as soon as he entered the airlock, he was received by other elves and gnomes in civilian clothes. This reassured him. His only weapon was a ceremonial sword with a laser pistol and his aides/guards. They were 6 in total, plus the prince, of course.
He arrived in a huge lounge where he could see other humans who stood up and almost ran to meet other compatriots.
One of them knelt down. "Goodness gracious, there are still humans other than us but their language was Elvish, not English or French."
The ground shook and 2 carno kobolds arrived and escorted Kate and Tiamat.
A mouse facing an elephant. It was the pressure exerted by Tiamat.
Bello and Sarah greeted the Prince, holding hands.
"I am Sarah, Chancellor and representative of the human race, well what is left of it. and this is Bello, our Commander, representative of the military forces and behind me, Her Majesty Tiamat, Dragon Goddess and Hydra Commander of the Repressor and Regent of the Earth, Our Lord Hans being in convalescence and not part of our trip. And here is his wife, Kate, high priestess and defender of the human culture and ... his children.
Arnold and Vermithrax were hidden behind their mother, protected by Kobold carnotaurus.
The prince bowed politely and thanked us for the welcome.
Prince: "According to our reports, the earth was destroyed and there were only a few survivors that Tyrant took under his wing to save some individuals.
Kate grinned and her large teeth showed respect.
She put down a portrait of herself as a human. An old photo saved... a very old yellowed photo.
"Prince Ummite. You have no idea how much pain we've been through. We fought endlessly and this ... " then she broke down in tears, unable to continue.
Sarah resumed.
"The picture, it's the dragoness from when she was human and we lost everything, friends, family, children, parent... we are only 300.."
Kate and her husband are the only survivors of the apocalipse and so are we, but we took an ark and..your men, Tyrant's men shot at us to crash..but the dragon saved our lives. Tyrant sent waves and waves of warriors to exterminate us but her husband resisted with the dwarf people, also persecuted. It was a war of extermination and Tyrant came and did something to a red rock in orbit. But Hans destroyed the fleet gathered around the rock and the explosion devastated everything.The elves, gnomes, fairies perished except for a few who sought refuge from the dragons under the protection of our goddess."
At these words, the prince looked up at Tiamat.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
Tiamat : "I am not a goddess anymore"
Kate continued: "Yes, Tiamat, you are still a primary goddess...we believe in you..."
The hydra smiled and the compliment rekindled the light inside her.
"Thank you Kate... Dragons need priestesses like you."
Prince: "But you love Tyrant too?"
Tiamat laughed..and shook the ship.
"No..haha.. This is the Destroyer.. The GRRRANNDE ENKA" in a somewhat mocking and dismissive tone. Tiamat really didn't like him at all.
Arnold was up and not afraid anymore.
He climbed on his sister Vermithrax's back and put on his Tyrant costume.
Kate and Tiamat put their paws in front of their mouths in front of THE CATASTROPHE.
Bello and Sarah had their hand like a cap, to hide the scene in front of them.
Arnold grew and Vermithrax leapt to the Prince's feet.
"AND DADDY DID SLASH AND FWISH With his axes and he faced the terrible Tyrant. This ship still has many hidden dents and holes made by the evil Tyrant's cannons..."
Vermithrax and she stood up. Yes, he stood on his hind legs and with his tail axe and she took out from her personal space, a dimensional storage a copy of Hans' armor, but more of a toy but still somewhat functional.
And she pulled out some axes and Arnold pulled out his sword from nowhere and they re-enacted their daddy's epic duel.
Then Arnold imitated Tyrant swallowed by Enka.
Then they laughed and ran away for fear of punishment...realizing that they had done the stupidest thing in the world...as usual...Arnold was a magnet for disasters...and his dragon sisters didn't help, on the contrary...they were as excited as he was.
Arnold: "Vemrithrax, let's go hunt raptors?", still in his Tyrant costume.
The adults sat back down, a stunned silence reigning in the room.
Bello: "I don't think we have anything else to say,... then he laughed... "I love children... at least with them... it's clear..."
The prince was straight as an I but did not laugh.
"The situation is terrible... and I also represent the Ummites... there has been change and we are no longer under the... let's say Yoke of a God. In a way we have been liberated but it has cost lives and more than you can imagine.."
He sighed.
I see that this world is independent and that it is slowly being rebuilt, and that you have powerful guardians but the empire is being rebuilt and there are many revolts and from the revolts will come wars and all the misery that goes with it.
I am not fooled. Arnold has the powers of a tyrant, but he is a child and our people need a guide.
He knelt down and begged Tiamat and Kate to follow them.
Prince: "We, the Ummites and guardians of the light, ask your forgiveness for the harm we have done and the denial of help to humans. I am sure that your culture and knowledge could have brought great things to both our peoples... The Ummites and I wish to right the wrong that has been done,
If you come, Arnold can become the true Emperor and Volkor will be his next and advisor."
Tiamat bowed his head..
"I like your words, little king... but this is insufficient, you lie to us by omission.."
The prince straightened his head, obviously not understanding.
Tiamat: "Let me refresh your head... you need us because a fleet is threatening to wipe you out and it is the DEVOR's space fleet!!! right?"
The prince stood up.
"Yes, your excellency, I was going to come to that but so much has happened... I have just learned how our deity Tyrant disappeared, proudly in a fair duel as far as I can see, I have just found his worthy successor and I haven't had time to address that subject yet."
We have known for a long time, by the masters of time and light that the forces of evil would emerge. that the Devourer would appear and we also knew that our Guide would disappear, but not so suddenly.. But despite our weakness, we have compensated for the loss of our God with science and technology. We are ready and our defenses are strong."
As he spoke, Tiamat was embarrassed.
On the one hand, the Ummites being bona fide capable and strengthened and, probably with surprises and on the other hand, The Electrons, The Devourer and an army of space dinosaur dragons that have the children as hostages.
