#the scorching

[dieserr]

wings of fire fandom did we all forget about the strange looking pre-scorching dragons because it’s been over 2 years since TFOH and I have seen NO artwork nor headcannons about Freedom’s mother / the first dragon queen

Gonna put a read more in case this counts as too much spoiler for Wof book 15: Flames of Hope

So I haven't seen anyone talking about the dragons from before the scorching! Like I've seen stuff about Freedom/Lizard and plenty of fanart but I haven't seen a thing about her mother or the other dragons mentioned. Where are the fanarts of them? Does anyone have ocs from this time? Cause I sure as heck plan to make a few

What are the theories surrounding them? Cause it sure seems like all the dragons or at least some have interesting common ancestors

What would their names have been like? Their tribes? Although it really seems like there weren't any specific tribes. Their cultures and languages? What was thousands of years before this time?

I'm so interested in the time before the scorching, please tell me your thoughts or come up with stuff about it! I'd love to see it!

A Tale of the Scorching

In the distant past...

Before the dragons took over...

Ancient humans roamed free upon the land...

They had massive kingdoms and built a paradise for themselves with their skill and ingenuity.

But in their greed, humans had taken too much from the land...

and stole from the dragons, leaving a path of destruction in their wake.

Until one day, the world was set ablaze...

In an act of vengeance, the dragons brought their fury upon the ancient humans...

and scorched the land leaving none to survive their unending wrath.

The ancient humans, unable to defend themselves from their own retribution...

were forced to flee to the safety of the undergrounds...

and hide until their entire legacy was wiped away in the infernal cataclysm they had brought upon themselves.

When they finally returned to the surface...

the world no longer belonged to them.

The remaining humans, shattered and broken, struggled to survive against the dragons that now dominated the land.

But they persevered and survived...

for such a time that civilization would rise again from the ashes...

and they would once again stand on the surface without fear...

free from the threats of the dragons that now threatened them.

They rebuilt whats left of their old society...

And continued to thrive in the new realm dominated by the dragons...

Hoping for the day they can finally return to the surface...

And roam free as their ancestors did before them...

[bleakbluejay]

you motherfuckers have no concept of what "land back" or "decolonize" even mean. you're too busy demonizing entire groups of people, terrified, shitting yourselves, that they'll do even half of the horrors to you that you've done to them for decades or centuries. this shit comes off as hella racist for real. you hate arabs so much. you hate first nations people so much. you hate black people so much. even if you sympathize with them, you can't fucking bear the idea of them gaining freedom, independence, autonomy, safety, because you're so, so scared they'll hurt you back and cause chaos in the streets. these same people who just want to rebuild. who just want to go home. who just want to see their families again. who just want food. who just want medical care. who just want dry, warm shelter. you're so focused on the ideas of colonization, of "us vs. them", of one people displacing the other for a state to exist, that you cannot comprehend coexistence, and your only idea of peace is if an entire group of people were just gone and dead.

grow the fuck up. for the love of GOD, grow the fuck up.
