we are dragon-mind

wetware in mechanized brain-buckets.....hell of a way to make a living.....it's a nasty job, but somebody has got to do it.....actually, it's sort of a relief from pure transcendent bliss....that can get tedious to some personality types.....so we got talked into doing a retro-corporeal stint in thick old reality.....the mud from which we evolved ......there's two sides to this: the up side is that we are now exposed to heart-warming interactions with cuddly flesh-and-blood folk that cannot be found anywhere in the higher realms.....the downside is the heart-ache that goes along with things like pain, existential despair, and simple mortality......which we as a race left behind when we elected to transcend.....

Why are we here.....that's what mortals always want to know.....we know why we are here aboard this ship chasing after the Wandering City....that's a more specific "why".....we're here to seek out a dragon who stayed behind.....the dragon-powers in the current administration feel that no one dragon should compromise the consensus by refusing to go along with everybody else in leaving the merely physical galaxy behind to the mammals and the machines and the bugs and all the other disgusting beings that pestered us for so long.....

The Last Dragon so beloved of the news media is thought to be still enjoying itself safe in the haven of Wandering City.....appearing as an attraction in a carnival sideshow! You can see how this might upset the more staid and holier-than-thou type dragon politicians and moral pundits.....it's seen as a disgrace that must be rectified.....so we two dragon-mind mates have been contracted to drop down to the old ways and find the freak who causes such consternation is some circles of proper society.....

Once we found passage to the City, things have gotten somewhat interesting.....we are not the only ones seeking the Dragon.....our shipmates of a human nature are also seeking the Old Wyrm.....to learn the esoteric wisdom of dragon-kind hermetic philosophies.....this all might get interesting.....it seems that there is still a ways to go before any of us reaches our goals.....we are on course at the moment, but we might be in for a bumpy ride.....
