Why become one? If you hate them?

@Galvanize

Trust me, it wasn’t by choice. My people were kind enough to let me live in the village outskirts after the first change happened. I guess they figured a dragon’s soul in the body of a little girl wasn’t all that dangerous.

What about the ones you have eaten?

@Galvanize

The first one was part of the festival. It’s what turned me into this. The others I hunted myself.

Just by one dragon?

@Galvanize

*Nods*
I still don’t know how they managed to kill it. I wish I did.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I assume the dragons of your world caused havoc and constant destruction to your people?

@Galvanize

*Shrugs*
Our village sure was. For three hundred years before anyone managed to kill that beast.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Oh, that’s not that special then. Just like any other animal. the humans of my world do the same as well.

@Galvanize

I never said it was special.
*Looks up and raps the fingers of my good hand against the counter*
I’ll never forget that feast though. We were finally free.

*my face is of pure confusion*
What?

@Galvanize

Good. I don’t eat the entire dragon, but they’re much bigger than I am. The first one was large enough to feed our village for a month.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

How big are the dragons that you have eaten?

@Galvanize

*Glares*
If you’re saying what it sounds like you’re saying, you’ll regret it.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

That’s more right than not right. To say it’s a “shared mind” leads to the implication that I’m divided into multiple unique instances, though, but really everywhere I am, I am the one me. It’s a complicated subject.

@Multifarious

Eh, I get it. You don’t have to explain.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Yep! It’s not as limiting as it may sound when you can be present in many places at once.

@Multifarious

*Nods*
Makes sense. Do you share a mind or something?

*As a person behind the terminal*
Chickpea! And not exclusively. I’m always here.

@Magnanimity

By choice?
