The last notes said that the cataclysm was imminent.

Other notes, probably written after the events, a compilation written by strangers.

The Aegis had taken off and the dragons were at work. Although capable of reproducing, in human years they were young adults, but they were still children, at least in their minds.

Only Glaurung had given birth to George and Poisse, Victoria and Galrauch was the most mature of them all, her independence having paid off.

On the moon, they were installing drills and placing nuclear-powered reactors.

To get a bit of breath, they entered the airlock, tightly and despite their larger size, their magic and their strength.

The population was so breathless that they relied so much on the dragons they hated so much and saw as their only saviors, abandoned by their nuns who had run away cowardly aboard the ark.

All the dragons were crying... they were scared too.

Mom and Dad had disappeared and they had no time to look for them. Only Poisse took care of this impossible task.

Then she looked at the surveillance videos, asked for the aerial surveillance archives and put up a table with the events, photos and on each of them there was something wrong.

She reviewed the family recordings but time was running out.

She used divination spells that fell on the dragons every time...

The cause would be a dragon??? or dragons??? or dragons???

There were too many details and too much mess going on, then like a sixth sense... A lost connection.... She thought back to Viseron. The one she had owned years before.

She didn't like to think back to that painful past and the purgatory that followed.

She looked at her pictures and saw with horror that Viseron was absent every time.

He had something to do with the disappearance of the parents!

And ... he was not with the other dragons, untraceable.

Then she looked at the recordings of the surveillance camera and by absence, the access turned on the same image.

The Aegis had been sabotaged!

But to be sure, she used a magic detection spell in the construction room of the ship.

It was positive! .... A spell of camouflage, invisibility and she started sniffing, to recognize smells... Aiming!

But another smell accompanied her.

In a rage, she went out and flew to the center of the launch, in the room where we could follow the progress of the operations with the authorized audience.

When she arrived at the building, she smelled again the smell of Viseron. Why wasn't he with his brothers and sisters?

Decreasing her height to enter the premises, she showed the pass given by Bishop to the guard at the entrance, who was not used to seeing a being half dragon, half snake.

She followed the corridors, and instead of arriving in the hall, she arrived at a technical room.

Spy equipment was transmitting what they were doing.

Traces of magic...

Poisse started screaming... she tried to contact a security guard...

Armed men pointed their guns at her...
