Bonds Of Gold (Dragon TF Story) [Commission]
I had a blast working on this story for 
walnut45. Getting to explore family dynamics in the midst of such drastic change was a great, fun challenge for me to craft. The communication method used by the yangul in the story was actually inspired by the echolocation used by some dolphin species. It is theorized that they are not only able to use those sound waves to get a sense of their environment, but potentially transmit images to one another. Having highly developed emotional intelligence regions of their brains (far more complex than our own), I took the liberty of extending that concept to allow the yangul to also be able to share memories with one another. These low bellows and various sounds get funneled through microscopic pockets within the yangulian bone structure and are subsequently interpreted by the nervous system. It allows yangul individuals to feel intention from others meaning deceit is rarely found in their society.
Towards the end of the story I imagine Castor and his family being approximately 75-80% or so of the way changed: enough to essentially have a yangul body structure, but appearing odd to the residents of The Heart. Rigel would be most difficult to tell apart from another yangul hatchling, and his transition from human infancy to a more mobile yangul hatchling may have read as drastic in the context of the story, but I imagined his mental structure also advancing during that time as a result of the injection. Similar to a young deer being essentially fully functional, Rigel would have gained enough control of his body and mental faculties to do basic problem solving to survive in the world as he would have to do as a full-fledged yangul.

Intriguing. I look forward to seeing a sequel, if it comes. I'm curious how they'll communicate with the rest of humanity and if they'll even be willing to listen, after what the family have done to themselves. Here's hoping that the men of the council aren't so pig-headed and are willing to hear our scientist out, now that he's become an official ambassador for these people.
Another fellow on a different site mentioned interest in a potential sequel as well. As it stands the commissioner has not yet mentioned continuing work on this story, but I would wholeheartedly welcome the opportunity to continue expanding on this world or if the commissioner was also fine with it having someone else take over the project as well and do a kind of "Community Funded" story type of thing. Castor faces a long road ahead of himself for sure. Humans carry a remarkable capacity to resist against things that are different or unknown to them, and that will certainly present challenges and risks for his family still. They may have avoided the scourge with their choices, but other people can sometimes be even more dangerous.
Amen, hence why I was worried here. Especially since the leaders seem more the type to deem this new civilization a threat, rather than an ally to live with in peace. After all, they'd deemed them to be little more than savages before, animals with no real intelligence, because they couldn't understand their communication. Either humanity can accept it or reject this. And regardless of the greater choice, there will be conflict to abound, guaranteed. Very nicely done, K9Lupus.
