The greatest gift the baby queen, Queen AlaHanDrea, gave to her creatures, was the ability to communicate, via the communication collars, or comm collars, as they were called, translating languages of every type, man and beast... to include many alien dialects. Uniting the species was not that difficult of a task, once everyone could communicate freely. New species were created from mixed marriages, usually occurring while both parties were in human state. Living in a world with a variety of magical, shapeshifting creatures was a new experience for all involved. Prior to the Ion 6 refugees arrival, as far as the dragons knew, they were the only magical, shapeshifting creatures on Taurus 9. The refugees added a multitude of giant, magical, shapeshifting creatures to the mix, shaking things up quite a bit for Drakania, as well as allowing the human sectors, commonly referred to, as the mainland, to know that shapeshifters existed. Queen AlaHanDrea was a terrifying gift that was as loved as she was feared. Even as a young girl, Queen AlaHahDrea led her loyal troops, made up of a multitude of species, into victorious battles, protecting the planet from would be invaders. The Baby Queen was not only the most loved creature on the planet, she was also the most feared! It is said that the prettier the rose, the sharper the thorns. Contrary to what many believed about dragons, they preferred a peaceful existence. Humans engaging in war like activities placed both sides in danger... risking the dragons flying over, destroying both sides. Diplomatic solutions were encouraged. In a world of carnivorous creatures and omnivores, predator and prey, certain concessions had to be made, compromises had to be reached. Dragons, having an extremely sensitive sense of smell, were able to smell the odor sin makes on a person. As a compromise, dragons tried to only consume humans stinking of sin. Food wagons made their rounds, collecting those who reeked of sin. According to the dragons, the people inside the food wagons, volunteered to be there. They knew the price of sin before they committed it! Death by dragons did a world of good at lowering crime rates in the cities. No stranger to technology, the peace loving dragons had a theory about the secret to a more peaceful existence, planet wide. Dragon kind believed that the secret to peace, was in keeping the women satisfied. They weren't wrong. The world was a much more pleasant place to live after the Love Academy opened its doors. Adolescent males were sent to the Academy for up to 2 years, studying every form and aspect of romance, with the help of female volunteers, mostly older, more experienced women, tended to volunteer. Everything from discovering erogenous zones, to ballroom dancing, males were taught how to please women. Males, no matter the species, seem to seek only a few things to be happy; food, sex, wealth and power and not necessarily in that order. Learning to please women, insured their ability to have all of the sex they wanted and most women will feed a man! Especially if he just rocked her world! About the planet, the name Taurus 9 was actually referring to half of the planet. Separated by an invisible border, with a neutral zone between, reaching completely around the planet, the other side was known as Gemini 9, home to the many species of giants residing on the planet. Cyclopse, Quadis, Longis, Eugi's, Oddis and T-Thorps, the largest of all of the species of giants, just to name a few, tended to remain on their side of the planet, with occasional visits to do battle with Drakonia. Since the arrival of the Baby Queen, all of the separatism's were coming to an end!
