CHAPTER 5: THE EVOLUTION OF SPECIES

At that time, species evolved favorably, however, dragons focused on those that developed at a disparate pace in different areas.

In some groups, group development was denoted, in others there were shortages of initiative and, consequently, evolution.

Some developed an interest in raising smaller animals, some going from place to place in search of fruits and animals that hunted in the area.

Others instead grouped together with other families, helping each other and protecting each group's strongest.

It is in these, in the last ones that interest was focused.

The dragons, curious by nature, followed them closely, finding grace in these beings, decided, with the king's permission, to share some knowledge with them, both of medicinal arts and the use of fire.

Some of this species, in the nomadic groups, noticed that the trees, which were by the rivers and the shores of the sea, floated, so they devised to make gaps in them so that they could enter and explore the rivers at first, over time they were made to the sea.

Many of them wanted to venture out.

Some groups were fortunate, many of them, ended up falling victim to some aspidochelon, great beasts born of the sea, with gigantic shapes, assimilating the size and image of an island, without being, that's how they deceived their victims, making them believe that they came to an island, and when they thought they were safe, they emerged from the sea, making them shipwreck and being devoured on the spot.

Others, devoured by some of the new species at sea, with large teeth, sharp and thin, some blind, endowed with a terrifying smell.

Others were saved by hippocampus, a species that appeared a few thousand years ago, peaceful beings in their normality, with the unicorn-like top and fish body, gold fins rather than arms, they, not being warlike, preferred to hide from danger.

They acquired a special power to transmit magic through their horn, giving special quality to those they saved.

Giving them the peculiarity of acquiring gills to be able to breathe underwater.

This new species created by the hippocampus, over time, would lose the previous shape, combining its legs into one as the tail of the hippocampus, thus being born, the mermaids and newts, who would not inherit the horn.

On earth, in the realm of council, the species evolved, were adept at reasoning, and possessed language that changed in each area, but they learned to have some in common to communicate.

They called themselves humans.

It was the favorite species of dragons, they learned fast, they had their own creations, according to satisfying their own needs, they were workers and sinks with those who helped them, thus gaining good eyes before the council, in this way they allowed some to enter the castle.

They never stopped evolving, went from making gadgets with rocks, bones, furs, and even began working with the sand, thanks to the fire of dragons, they discovered that the sand melts and can form things with them and a little air.

They also tried different ways to work the sand. Whether under construction or in the separation of minerals, with which, they forged various utensils, an alloy that could change shape until making layers or long rods.

This crude alloy was called metal.

They had different colors and hardnesses.

That way, they helped in the castle.

Making containers for alchemy and some of them, participating in research on the knowledge of magic.

Humans were the species that adapted to all species of the guardians.

Thus gaining the acceptance and trust of all in the kingdom.

At this time he hatched a new litter of the king's sons, adding 5 descendants to the family, which were called: MIREU, GYO, RYU, WUURMS, AMPHIPTERE (daughter).

Giving more stability to the council kingdom. this is a good time for all species, except for the woulds and manticore, always persecuted and attacked when viewed somewhere in the kingdom.

After 70 years, the council agreed to use humans to assist in the surveillance of peaceful species.

This has been, recognizing their courage in defending some areas where they were alone and also in those where they helped a guardian protect the area.

They have seen that, some of them have learned to fight and use weapons that they themselves have made.

And they have even developed a kind of discipline in which they exert movements that mimic that of the enemy to counterattack it, there are also movements that they teach each other with the handling of weapons and their limbs, in addition to developing almost wild agility.

For all this, they have gained a place on the council.

King DRAKO, is very happy that the council recognizes such capacities in a seemingly inferior species in strength, which in its early day was under the care of them, however, now, they fight shoulder to shoulder next to them, the guardians.

However, he ponders it before giving his approval.

Despite all the points in favor.

He feels a little afraid, the human being is incredibly amazing.

In them he sees an equal.

They lack strength compared to others on the council, and yet they are able to fight to the death to protect what they desire.

Although, on the other hand, also, those secluded groups fight each other, killing even, to get what they want to have.

Humans, they are skilled in mind, it shows this is the fact that they work in the alchemy lab and make great progress I feel such a young species, which took them thousands of years.

Any material that falls into your hands can be transformed due to your ingenuity.

His fear lies in, that if the human being, being so docile and rebellious at the same time, could fall into the same mistake of his dragon brothers.

External your ideas to the council and everyone ponders it.

Certainly these humans have been docile to them.

Their counterpart in the secluded places, are too wild, they are certainly a walking danger, due to their competitiveness because they are the strongest, although they have not given too many problems, sometimes they have to keep them at bay, away from the kingdom, because, they tend to kill the inhabitants of the villages that have come to attack to steal their belongings.

Although they have learned to speak, they do not want to live under the rule of the kingdom.

They're still fighting him.

Yes, there are many points to consider, although from what you have seen in them, there are more gains than losses.

After much deliberation, they agree that they will take care of the humans and the king.

Leaving the last word to him. Your king.
