Sorry, I don’t think I’m following.
Uhm…my race are essentially sub-species of the earth dragons. But over years, there were groups of earth dragons that preferred to consume not only rock and stone, but more of specific minerals. Such as raw metals. As they consumed more and bred with others of that preference, the offspring of them grew to naturally consume those metals and eventually their bodies adapted grow and utilize metals. And the earth dragons were naturally the most diverse in nerms of adaptation of their environment, so metal dragons essentially became stronger versions. As our sub-species ventured out to different environments, we learned how to mold ourselves to those environments. Thats a summary of what I am trying to say.
