"I will tell you the ancient story....
During the early millennia of the earth's long life, a grand creature ruled in utter chaos. The reptiles, the dinosaurs, were the first great creatures of the earth. Their reign seemed unstoppable, but as the world grew, nature was forced to move on, these creatures were not of perfection, were not what she sought.
Her work of a million years had produced them from the single celled beings she had first created, but they were not right for her earth. She had much more to do to find the creature she needed buried deep within the genes of those that already roamed her earth.
The earth was introduced to the mammal. And they grew and grew. Nature continued her manipulations, but slowly; tweaking them here and there. Her work ebbed when her manipulations gave birth to Mankind. She had found her perfect ruler of her perfect world.
She had grown accustomed to her work though and so she turned back to some of her oldest creations; the reptile. As the centuries passed and man surpassed her expectations, her work continued. She even used man to force along some of her creations.
Before her work could gain much ground, mankind's true essence revealed itself. They were beyond her control, twisted by their perfection, into monsters. This was not her dream for her perfect world. Mankind was turning against its home, destroying some of her most beautiful creations.
Nothing could save the world from the terror of man save for their destruction. And so she rose up against them, with all her force. A force that even Mankind could not escape, could not thwart, could not fight.
And that is where we came in. The Reptilia. We have been given our chance yet again, to prove that this is our purpose.
But Nature's manipulations have given way to something new, a new creature and yet the same. Dangerous to all of us and yet our only chance. This creature pushes us closer to the edge of war and yet the brink of peace lies in its wake. This new creature calls itself only Sauropsida, it claims no alliances, no purpose. It turns us against us and fights beside us when we are threatened.
With its arrival comes fear and suspicion. Rumors spread like wild fire. We know naught what these beings intentions are. Together is the only way to protect ourselves from this creature.
But now, we have become divided. Nature's plans lay stagnant, her manipulations continue as always, but we hinder ourselves now. Lines have been drawn. It seems the cycle is to repeat. We thus threaten to destroy our own future.
Perhaps there is still hope, perhaps harmony is within our grasp.....Perhaps war grows too near...."
