Well, that does make sense.

If this is the case, though, that would suggest that anytime a dragon is 
spotted, we might conclude that it's Devera.  It seems like there ought to 
be some way to distinguish between a Devera-incarnation Dragon and a 
run-of-the-mill dragon (like we saw in Brokedown Palace).

Then again, maybe there is and we just haven't discovered it.  Subtle are 
the ways of Brust. ;-)
