There's other things I can bring man. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Also, just so there's no IC misunderstandings, here's what Whisper is really doing...though it's my hope y'all will play along IC. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />By lighting 'his fire' in Man's heart, the Empyreal will do more than just stimulate humanity with drive and curiosity...but with a soul. Thus a great, possibly the greatest, mystery will be born...which will give Whisper quite a hold on mankind. Plus it'll give humankind a means to transcend death, which will give her no end of amusement. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />The dragon's immortal, but not a god. What she's getting from IT should be obvious. The egg is what she needs to offer the Void. Hopefully the queen dragon has so many eggs she won't notice one missing. And if she does, she won't think to look under the sand in the desert. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Why she's making the request of the Void is more circituous, and multithreaded. One reason is because dragons are powerful, way powerful, and right now she has no hold on them at all. They're physically strong, magically strong, never die, and have plenty to eat. But if they WANT things, then she can OFFER them things. Without relying on juvenile inexperience and jealousy that is (see above <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />. It'll also make the dragons and men fight alot which accomplishes two ends. It'll keep humankind's numbers down at first, slowing their early population growth, and it'll result in humanity having a powerful enemy to match wits with, forcing them to grow and evolve and giving them a reason to use their newfound creativity and drive.She wants both dragons and man to learn...to learn a lot. Things that are Unknown are lost to Whisper. In order to be a secret, SOMEONE has to know it first. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
