Ignar decided to leave on a rescue shuttle to the lunar base and train as a human soldier aboard the Artemis.

Meanwhile, the Vulcanus returns to Earth's orbit, to get to safety and prepare for its next expedition, with accommodations for dragons used for other missions, once they are emancipated.

World's goal was to use dragons to accelerate his space program and crush Artemis Co financially.

But Kim and his clique had not said their last word and they had disguised the USSC Artemis as a destroyer escorting the Marenostra supposedly housing the dragons and on a mission to LV426.

Peter, finally, David World, the usurper looked with admiration at his collection and the empty pedestal of Vermithraxa.

He took a glass of a white liquid, like coconut milk, and watched an old newspaper article go by.

"2089: Archaeologist Elizabeth Shaw and her companion Charlie Holliday discover a prehistoric painting on the Isle of Skye in Scotland that depicts a humanoid pointing to six stars, almost identical to pictorial representations found in other civilizations in other times."

"Bon voyage, baby!"

Auberonne, furious and weeping, took refuge in the ship's greenhouse and shouted "Why????? She has everything and I have nothing... ...and she fell into a state of grief.

Staff members rushed in to see what was wrong. Some women took their handkerchiefs and told her. Come on, it's a heartache... You'll see, he'll come back.

One of them was very kind to Auberonne. "I am Isabelle and I had the good fortune to take part in the expedition to Arcadia. And I was able to see your world and film it. Come on, let's go to the movie theater, I have pictures and videos."

Auberonne wept with joy at the sight of the landscapes and views of her beloved planet.

"I will return to Arcadia with you, Vermithraxa. We'll bring back the dragons and be happy as before. The wicked are dead."

Isabelle smiled and put her hands on the neck of the dragon and, surprisingly, the dragon felt good, a little soothed.

"Isabelle, thank you, you're really nice. I don't know how you do it, but your presence reassures me.

Help me get Fuchur back."

Isabelle: "Give me a few days and you'll see, everything will work out. I promise."

Auberonne: "Isabelle, what's your role on the mission?"

"I'm an observer, but I'm also a pilot and an archaeologist... But I'm a medium and I can help you concentrate, open your soul."

Auberonne: "Really????"

Isabelle smiled and, for a split second, her pupil split to better penetrate Auberonne's mind.

Her mystical power increased tenfold, her rage of vengeance and her gratitude for the mission she had to accomplish, not only could she read minds but also influence them.

If she was a blood dragon now, her powers were due to a devourer, herself being one now, much more powerful than Auberonne and Vermithraxa combined. With the difference, that when she came back from the dead, she did not know it, but she had brought something back from the dead that had no place in this world, in this dimension. Something perverse, like a high note, like a dimensional spider, an unspeakable horror flowing in her blood. Her angelic smile masked the shadow that is said to be the strongest, closer to the light.

"Close your eyes, Auberonne, and you will see your world and the primal love, the motherly love you never had."

I felt myself plunging and like falling into the liquid of my egg, warm and soft and a huge eye opened and looked at me.

"Welcome, my darling. I'm your real mommy... I apologize for all your hardships but it's over. You have nothing more to fear, I'm here...

Let me cuddle you, love you and let me comfort you..."

I was high, I felt .... well ... calmed ... without fear, without anger, without jealousy.

"Auberonne, it's me Bahamut ... ...I'm not the monster they describe... "We were separated by human gods, but they all perished or abandoned mankind...

Your daddy was sick but we cured him.... He regretted it and came to his senses. You were kidnapped from birth and I turned heaven and earth to find you.

You're the real dragon. You have the soul of a dragon, your sister is sick because her soul comes from the Earth, she is not a real dragon. You are! She's a liar and an impostor who delivered your entire race to humans. Only you can make up for that. You'll see, the dragons will be all over you, you'll be the hero.

Fuchur, will cry to stay after you, but the braver, more mature, more dragon-ridden others will overshadow the hopeless Fuchur. He's more human than dragon... forget him. He'll always be a crybaby and incapable of being a father to your children.

Come, I'll explain how to turn you into a human. They'll look up to you and Fuchur will be at your feet.

Here's a gift for you, sweetheart, close to your heart, a grimoire hidden in a tortoise shell holds all the draconian knowledge. Thus you will surpass your sister."

"But why do you want to bring her back... She would rather die."

"We got off on the wrong foot, and she didn't even give me time to explain. We're dragons, and she acts and thinks like a human. It's not normal and she's gonna lose her dragon soul sooner or later. I have to help her become a dragon again. To revive her saurian ego, to become a primal predator again and make her understand what it is to be a part of nature, of her strength. Rage, survival, the beginning of life.

She really disappointed me by committing suicide in front of her own goddess and her own mother. She gratuitously spat in my face full of love and tenderness. And I'm afraid she'll do it again and finally come to her own final destruction. Body and Soul. It is because I love her that I must straighten her up, teach her and teach her to live again. Otherwise she will end up like a black hole, lost forever.

Bahamut licked Auberonne and then she woke up, massaged by Isabelle.

"But, but... I'm human????? Isabelle??? is that you???"

"No, Auberonne, I saw a white light and then you became human. I put you on a bed and I washed and dressed you. You're in my room now. You looked like you were dreaming..."

Auberonne was lost, confused and reality hit her when she saw a scale on her skin between her breasts, red and emitting light... A grimoire?????

She smiled: Aqua, Fuchur, and everyone else, you'll pay for this... she mumbled.

Isabelle, while massaging Auberonne's back, released a carnivorous smile.
