SunFlash and MoonShadows
*The drigetti live in the desert, so I'll give you a
ride there. It's quite a distance.*
You mount, and Swiftwing takes off. You travel a
good way, and you see the vast expanse of desert.
In the middle you see a small speck of blue, which
grows larger as you spiral downward.
*We have six drigetti here, four adults and two
babies. All but the yellow-maned adult, and the two
babies are genetic-less drigetti, which means that
they have no gene code. Moonshadows and Cloud take
care of the babies. They enjoy it since, because
they don't have genes, they can't have children of
their own.*
A small yellow-maned drigus approaches, holding his
head regally. He comes up to you, and looks you
over.
^Welcome traveler, to the oasis. I am Sunflash, and
I am the guardian of this place, and the leader of
the drigetti here. Since I am the only drigus who
has genes, I, of course, take charge. My mother is
the beautiful Tabitha, who still lives on our native
land of Allonia, and my father is the mighty
Kyrienev, leader of all the drigetti of Allonia.^
*And Sunflash is the most modest of the drigetti.*
Celest adds dryly. "He likes lording it over the
other drigetti, even though he's the youngest. I
guess that's his father's influence. Kyrienev is a
dominating type drigus, and personalities are
inherited. On top of that, his mother also likes to
take charge. But I don't mind. He's great to talk
to once you get to know him, the arrogance is pretty
much just a show to make a good first impression.
Anyway, would you like to see his scrapbook?*
You nod, and Celest hands you a leatherbound book,
which is artfully yellowed to give it an antique
look.

*Let me explain the gene code. His body is
dragonish, which is a recessive trait. His tail is
also draconic, which is a super-dominant trait. His
ears and head are tigerish, which is super-dominant
for ears and recessive for heads. His feet are also
draconic, which is super-dominant. He has
backspines and orange fur, which are both dominant,
and he has whiskers, which is recessive. He doesn't
have a mutation. Now that I've explained that,
would you like to meet the other members of my
little herd?*
You agree eagerly, and the blue-maned drigus you saw
before comes trotting back.
"This is Moonshadows. Our very first drigus.
She tends to be very serious, though. Isn't she
beautiful?"
Moonshadows looks at you with a bright, intelligent
blue eye. She seems to appreciate the comment.
