Discussion on NewEarth
Discrimination
As a reader, you have probably noticed that aside from the dragons Grabon has chosen, the others really do not view humans as people. They might be pets or pests, but certainly not people. They sort of treat Grabon like the alpha male who dresses his dog in a sweater. They only roll their eyes…
Read MoreUnplanned Pregnancy
Among dragons, unplanned or unwanted pregnAncy is not that common. Brews for male and female contraception generally take care of the problem, and it is commonly available and drunk by most sexually mature dragons. The problem comes up when rumors circulate that a pregnancy will alter the energy flow and force a mating. This caused…
Read MoreDragon Wine
Aside from the potency of Griss’ wine, there is a question of how and where he has been making it while he awandered all these many cycles. In a later book dedicated to his story, readers will find out about his earlier life, but know that he has a still, set up in unclaimed territory…
Read MoreGriss as BrewMaster
On my NewEarth, brews are medicines sometimes mixed with water, sometimes wine, some hot, some cold and on occasioned they can be sweetened to make them more palatable. Griss, the large red dragon, has a collection of brew recipes he learned from his sire that have been collected and passed down for generations. Those recipes…
Read MoreDragon Compliment
The dragons of NewEarth like substance in their compliments, so instead of focusing on the size or shape of someone’s nose or wings, they would compliment the person on their dedication to purpose or their loyalty to their friends. Now to another male dragon they may comment on the shape and size of her parts,…
Read MoreGrabon
Grabon like all Territory dragons has a sense of his own power and responsibility, including how it can be corrupted. If you had been born with the power to rule, would you choose to embrace it? Not all dragons do, many choose instead to become clan dragons, finding a territory dragon they trust to make…
Read MorePets
This goes back to a rule governing territory dragons: A pet is a creature, any creature that you provide for and keep safe, or at least attempt to keep safe. Basically you feed it and give it shelter. That holds true in NewEarth as well. Some creatures are kept as pets and a person shouldn’t…
Read MoreDragon Time
Dragons separate the day into time blocks, it just isn’t the same as we have here on old earth. The humans when they landed on NewEarth developed almost an identical way of measuring time. With two suns and two moons, this is how it tends to go. First sun rising, two suns up, sun high…
Read MoreCharacters
Many of my characters grow, mature, age and in some cases get sick and eventually die. Even a dragon with 200 or more years of living that they can anticipate, ages, grows ill, and eventually dies. It is part of living and life. If a dragon is unable to care for themselves, they join a…
Read MoreDragons
How did these mammals get to be called dragons? Well if you have looked at the pictures you have a pretty good image of what the dragons move like. The human settlers had been dropped off the night before, early spring, storms raged, rain beat down on their plastic containers and in some cases flipped…
