"That's true. Dragons can change their form to suit their environment within a few decades."
It really interested Prometheus, how susceptible to change a dragon's form was. Their genetics were highly unstable - yet also stable, for no mutation was detrimental to the organism. Their long lives were due to their cell division being high efficient, the wear and tear on telomeres negligible, and the sheer depth of their aether stores. Honestly, in Prometheus's opinion, a dragon as a biological organism was far more advanced than an Amaurotine. Such a shame they were content to lounge around like intelligent beasts, though...
Prometheus was pulled out of his academic musings by Hades getting swallowed up by the bubbles, and he smiled indulgently at the quivering bubble pile that concealed him.
"Hades?" he asked, his voice lilting playfully, "Do you need rescuing from that bubble prison of yours?"
