Be sure you do not lend too much to sympathy. Even when we were gods, there was intention to every action. It was not animal instinct which drove us.

[And even animal instinct is simply striving to survive. What the gods push onto mortals is not for their own survival. It is selfish in nature. From boredom, or want of power, or from hate.]

These are the names of dragons from your... your star? Several I recognize, though I cannot pinpoint from where; I have indulged in many tomes about the founding of the Empire, and its deep roots in dragon mythology, written with great amounts of reverence, and I imagine that is where they originate. It is even said that the whole of our lands grow on the back of a great wyrm, large enough to contain multiple continents.

I cannot begin to say why such names should bound across worlds... other than that, perhaps, some of our stories have a touch of truth, and there are beings beyond gods capable of such a feat.
