After a few days of taking stock, Galrauch never left my side. She was afraid that I would end my life. Mom, too.
I was in need of affection, in mourning for love. My dragon was dead. My daughters were dead.
Nothing mattered anymore. Then I thought of Othar and the blood.
Yes, blood, I need blood! Mana!
Galrauch and I made a carnage in the surrounding woods. Any living creature that could bleed was slaughtered.
I was soaked in blood. It disgusted me, but it worked.
My skin was covered with scales and slowly I began to look like Galrauch.
Then one evening I said: Octahedron!

I asked: Status

---Octahedron :Dimensional RESET, ---
---We closed our reality in a time loop.---
---We have been extracted from the loop by the masters of time ----
---------------------------------------------------------------------
"Can we get my family out of the loop?"
----------- No. There's a paradox, an impossibility.
-----------We are in the continuum. The loop is crushed. Visit impossible.
And in Ghidorah mode?
-----------The loop is closed, they no longer exist.--------
My possessions?

---------------- They tried to follow the paradox but reality has rewritten their reality.------
Their reality is that they are dead
There is a danger that Glaurung will disappear, not to touch an unstable paradox any more. She is under external observation. Her reality is stabilizing.
-----------------------------------------------
TEARS
Then I go into the garage and take a can of gasoline and go into the woods with Glaurung.
Then, after making sure there is no one there, I ask Glaurung to step aside.
I sprinkle myself with gasoline and Glaurung screams that I stop and it's too late,
The can explodes and turns me into a human torch.
The pain is fleeting but suddenly the flames are absorbed and my dragon body takes shape again.
From there, I'm lying on the ground, knocked out and sore.
My bones broke, my scales grew back, my spikes, my head, my teeth, and my tail. and ...my size.
GROOAAAAAAR I growled!
Then Galrauch jumped on me: Daddy, you're a dragon again!
After recovering a little, I dragged myself to the pillboxes and hid in the tunnel that I collapsed a little and settled down to sleep.
Then Galrauch came near me.
"Galrauch, my little one, our era is over, here. You are the last dragon.
You know how to remain human.
Forget the dragons, "
But dad?? we're together, aren't we?
Yes, my little one, but every moment, every second is torture for me.
I burn with sadness.
You too are full of sorrow. But you have a future ahead of you if you stay human and forget about the dragons. You will remain mi Wyrme but you will have a job and many adventures.
I will try to stay alive for you but I want to avenge our family. They were murdered!
Do you realize we'll never see Kraa or Karrrin or Oriharukon again?? Or Tiamat! Even Grandma Anny died there!
What about your eight dragon sisters??? Even though you hated us, we were your family and we all loved you.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (Crying)
Go quickly take refuge at grandma's!
Call Prius and tell him to come here when I've absorbed the lightning.
No, I don't have time anymore. Let him come tomorrow.
That night I plunged into darkness and went to the nuclear power plant in Huy and began my undermining work.
I emptied the reactor core by absorbing energy.
My singularity is stabilizing but I must go further.
DEVORING MODE!
I thus absorb the nuclear reactor and reactivate my devourer singularity.
Then, in the night, the sirens screaming, and the generalized blackout in the region following the destruction of the reactor, I went to the other 3 nuclear reactors.
When my work is finished, I flee to the casemates and rest while waiting for the next day.
