I realized what I'd done about 3 seconds after clicking on > 'send'. I have a wild ass theory at this point about Devera. So there is pretty large stuggle between several groups; Jenoine, Seroli, Dragaerans, Verrra (whom is or is not actually aligned with the Gods), the Gods and Fernarians. Let up recap what limited Knowledge we know (I'm bound to screw something up here) The Seroli were on Dragaera first that was thier natural place then the Jenoine brought the Fernarians (human species x) and did some experiments and produced human species B or as they like to call themselves Dragaerans The Dragaerans kick the Jenoine out and then somehow the gods either existed before now or decided to pop up around this time but it's all real relative seeing as Verra is considered a Goddess dubbed the Demon Goddess the demon part is either important or desigend to screw with us either way we proabably don't know. Verra is from somewhere else I think it's mentioned she was a race that was enslaved to serve the Jenoine which is no doubt where we can determine why she has an issue with them which seems to be why she is at first glance to be though of as one of the Gods but you can't really believe a group of powerful beings all have the same motivations, they might have the same goal; killing the Jenoine or at least keeping them away from Dragaera and out of thier lives. But that doesn't mean she hasn't taken the Seroli 'an enemy of my enemy is my friend' attitude towards Dragaerans and the gods and essentialy Fernarians I would not be suprised to find out that fenarians are you terran class humans taken >from the crib so to speak and bred and brought to Dragaera What does this have to do with Devera you ask, I'll get to it let me cover some more ground first. Naw on second thought that could take forever, here is my conclusion: Devera is the offsrping or embodiment of Bolk (from Brokedown palace, the Taltos horse) and Verra. -Angelo 'it's okay to be wrong if you have fun doing it' Tripp-Russo
