Our Creation An RP Story Arc Explanation & Guidelines: Anyone can join in at any time, just be sure to respect everyone already in the RP. This is going to cover what the 'new egg' that came out of one of the Breaking Heart plants is, as well as where it came from. Minya, Aedan's bonded, is going to be the one speaking. And if you're paying attention, the whole history of the kyns - including Minya and Aedan - is going to unfold. Direct Links to the installments will be posted below, in case you just want to read the history and not directly participate. ~*~ Minya was seated beside Aedan, her tail curled partially around his legs in a comforting gesture. The sun played off of her blue hide, making it sway and roll like the ocean's surface. At once she seemed smaller than every kyn present, and then larger. Yet Minya was just another kyn like all the ones present. The only thing that marked her as any different was her bond to Aedan.
Though Minya was relaxed, Aedan seemed anxious and nervous. He knew what it was that she was getting ready to explain, could guess at what the egg was. Yet in truth, he knew so little - and yet so much.

Small Summary of Previous Event (Before Deletion) - for reference only - Minya has asked where it was that everyone had gotten their kyn. Various people responded - from Kahyou's sales, from feral kyn clutches, from the ranch, from breedings. Ganon was a little angry over such a stupid question - he knew what it was she was implying. Nicky was vehement in response, telling him that if he didn't calm down and keep quiet he'd be going home alone. Draconis)Wyrm suggested that kyns were made of dreams. Draco Magnus and Veigh offered their respective loved ones Heart Amulets. Tare and Asayake were snuggling, while Shinju's temper was settling. Paige was supportive of their relationship.

Minya kept her mouth shut despite Ganon's rather harsh comment, though her yellow eyes narrowed slightly down at him. She was not happy about it, certainly. Her small smile returned as the others' continued to speak up about their own experiences. Then, someone's voice caught her attention above everyone else. And Minya's mouth curled up into a small smile.
"Yes. You're very much correct, Draconis."
Aedan took a heavy sigh with his shaky breath. Minya really was going to tell them. But how far would she go with this? Certainly not...?

Tare's jaw fell open. It was so clear, all of a sudden! The story of the first bonded; Dragons had been long known only in myths, but one human was so dedicated, so earnest in his belief that he traveled over the world, seeking the dragons. And lo and behold, he found the first egg.
Latent magicks of the heavens and earth are strange things. They influence with wills of their own, responding to the strongest of emotions. A wish upon a star beseeches the heavens to shine down luck. He finished his thought out loud, "So then the first rider did not stumble upon the first kyn egg... he unconsciously created it, from his desire and hope and dreams of dragons!"
Schurrbart had been kissing Veigh, with the pulsing heart around his neck, but he cocked his head and pulled away slowly. He was frankly put off. "So jou are sayhing... ve are vigckments ov the imaginahshun?"

Draconis was shocked, to say the least. With Kragen looking at her like that, she'd begun weaving what she knew to defend herself, but she wasn't a fool after all! She looked at the ground, thinking.
"Is it like... Draconomica? No, not really, because all those places exist already... but... It's like quantum physics! The universe is a hologram, and the universe is dictated by the minds of its inhabitants! A woman can make trees disappear by dancing, because during that dance she hypnotizes herself into believing they don't exist more strongly than the beliefs of the watchers! I think." Draconis wasn't sure if she'd just ranted herself into a wall, until Blue-Eyes spoke.
"You dreamed me, Draconis?"
"Erm, well, yeah, I guess I had been thinking of you for weeks before I found your egg..." she answered, self-conscious now. Also a little worried. This all brought to mind solipsism, and then Solypsos, a jerk of a character she'd been writing a story for after dreaming him. What if he finds his way into the Kyn world? That wouldn't be good...
Veigh made a murring growl when Schnurrbart stopped, but tilted her head to listen as well. Her rider was ranting again. And Kragen was glaring dirty looks at her, so she stared at him until he nervously hid beneath his cloak again.

Tetania looked around, noticing that bonded, Kailind, still hadn't come, and neither had Madoc. The discussion was very interesting, and the tale that would soon be told was probably even more intriguing. She would hate for her bonded to miss it. But if Kailind hadn't gotten here by now, she probably wouldn't be here at all. Tet shrugged to herself. She'd just have to tell Kailind and Madoc the story later. She turned her attention back to the discussion, intent on not missing a word.

"Dreams? Moi?" Rosemary seemed a bit stiff and aghast at the idea.
"But how can I be a dream, when I'm ici?"
Rowan was getting a bit annoyed at Rosy's constant French, but she didn't say anything. She was very intent on hearing about the first Kyns...
Dreams...it all sounded so far-fetched. But what did she know? She grew up as a farm girl, never leaving Silvertree village.

Myrrh was only half-listening to Minya; without a doubt Kiko or Ninja would fill her in later. Still, so as not to be rude to those listening, she leaned in a bit closer and craned her head up and back to look into Magnus' face. She thought a moment before whispering, "A secret?" She shifted her wing slightly, careful of her own secret as a riddle formed itself in her mind.
"I am...only a dream?" Kiko asked quietly, halfway to no one and halfway to her rider perched on her shoulders. Ninja slid her arms gently around the Japanese's neck in an affectionate hug. When she spoke, for some reason she dropped out of her accustomed accent and into a serious tone. It was as though a completely different person than the usual happy-go-lucky owner was speaking, though the voice was the same. "No, my little Princess, you are far greater than any dream. You, and Myrrh and, I am sure, every other Kyn in this world has grown beyond anything a human mind could imagine. That is the nature of life: we all must grow and create ourselves, and become more than others believed we could be."

Nicky looked dreadfully confused, peering down at the little dragonfly...rock...egg...thing in her hands.
"So... Who dreamed up this?"

Aedan shook his head sadly, disheartened at how they were taking things. He was about to berate Minya for her rash ideas and actions when the European kyn continued to speak.
"My friends, my brothers and sisters, my children," for Minya regarded all those not kyn as children, beyond Aedan, "Why do you seem so uneasy? What is it that makes you stir like this? Stop your minds, and listen with your heart. Just listen." Her plea very well may fall on deaf ears, though Minya paused before continuing, hoping to get through to them. If they would only understand...
"It is not so simple as one word to explain. It is not so easy to assume." She sighed, Aedan cutting into her thoughts with his own words. "You must listen. And perhaps the best place to start is with the myths."

Draconis, hearing some mutterings about Kyns being 'only' dreams, was a little upset. She saw a serious kind of look on Twi's face, and she laughed and patted his furry cheek. "You're not just a dream! You may have come from a dream, but you're just as real as anything else!" Looking around, she reminded herself of the hologram theory again, and added, "Though anything else could be a dream, too, depending on how my mind views the universe." This was quite thrilling, that Kyns were living proof of... This.
A smile pulled at Magnus's mouth as he shuffled his wings, then grinned broadly again. He was like a kid on Christmas morning, and he knew he had to wait just a little more. "What am I not going to have in a second?" He stopped to listen to Minya, interested in what the whole gathering was about, but for the moment this was a little more important to him.

The vixchee remained still, towards the front of the group. A few of her kyn, mainly Kori's children (foster or otherwise), were fussing amongst themselves over who was a "nightmare" rather than a dream. All were quickly silenced with cracks across the backs of their heads from their vulpine mother.
"...what myths?"

Rowan reached a hand up to poke Rosemary, who didn't seem to have heard Minya's words. The little hatchling seemed quiet undignified at being told she was a dream.
"Shush will you?" Rowan whispered. Rosemary gave out a quiet 'hmph' and stopped chittering. Rowan was still getting used to the little Kyn. Rosy acted as if she owned Rowan, and was quick to snap back at any criticisms. Yet Rowan could never feel frustrated at Rose...
It was because of their bond, maybe not, but Rowan always seemed to understand Rosemary and Rosemary always understood her better then anyone else in the world. This made Rowan very comfortable, more comfortable then she had in years, even before her mother had taken ill.
"Alright, j'écoute" Rosemary grumbled.

"now that I think about it, it does make alot of sense for kyns to come from dreams" poke said. At first it seemed weird, and she looked back at her kyns as if they would suddenly dissapear like a cloud, but they were all solid and not moving. But now that she gave it thought....The dreams and desired that she had, perhaps "summoned" her kyn here. However the quantum physics almost sent her brain reeling and thinking of long hours in a classroom. ugghh
"so, I suppose that the will to become stronger and the desire to succeed brought me along?" Taku asked poke, and she just shrugged, grinning. "I guess so. Though I wonder exactly what made me want sharketsu around?'"
"Mabye you were having a nightmare then" shiro growled, and then had to doge a snap from the shark kyn.
at minya's plea though, poke looked a little concerned. Getting her brain to go into a medtaive trance, or to even forucs on one thing, was something she couldn't really do. "um...I'll try..." she closed her eyes and folded her arms, trying to get her mind to pause and look for whatever was supposed to be going around in her "heart"

Draconis had been trying to explain to Kragen that as soon as one could understand the concept of "I", or someone else understood beyond doubt that one was an "I" or "it", then one existed. The saying, I think, therefore I am, was not entirely true and that it should be changed to just I. Kragen shook his head, storing the knowledge away without understanding, while Twi didn't understand the words but knew the meaning.
Drazio was on the verge of freaking out. Where was KAMEKO!? Finally, he lunged into the crowd, spotting a familiar Kyn... He was Kameko's Prince, wasn't he?
And there she was. The european didn't feel relieved until he was standing protectively next to her, excited. "Did you like the plant I got for you?" he panted, slightly out of breath. His whole being was just filled with Kamek.
