Lesson Learned.

The child of the plane smirked when he saw the reaction of the 9 paragons. He too was a little rattled by the knowledge that the furries that just beat them are real. It shook his worldview if he was being honest. It really drove home the need not to underestimate anyone. Not even the weak creatures that they hunt for sport in his plane. 

He has always been extraordinary all his life so he looks down on others a lot. First of all, he was born a paragon. That is special in and of itself. He was born above normal Vipers. He was born unique and made to achieve great things.

Being born a paragon of Vipers is special because paragons don't give birth to paragons. It is not a matter of bloodline or ancestry. Anyone can be born a paragon. Normal vipers can give birth to paragons and origin gods can give birth to normal vipers so it is very special to be born a paragon.
