I woke up to the chirping of the birds and a warmth on my face and body. The wind lightly wafted about and beneath me I felt a soft prickly feeling and I opened my eyes with a start and recognized my surroundings, the tall redwood trees to my left down the side of the mossy knoll I laid upon and to my right, moss amidst grass. I sat up and looked to the left under the trees and they, crowned with bright green fanning leaves, cast most of the forest floor in shadow onward north west, west, and south west there. To my right the next thing to the rocks was a giant stone protruding from the earth covered in some bits of moss and this was the way up north east, east, and south east the large stones blocking the view farther eastward.

I woke up to the chirping of the birds and a warmth on my face and body. The wind lightly wafted about and beneath me I felt a soft prickly feeling and I opened my eyes with a start and recognized my surroundings, the tall redwood trees to my left down the side of the mossy knoll I laid upon and to my right, moss amidst grass. I sat up and looked to the left under the trees and they, crowned with bright green fanning leaves, cast most of the forest floor in shadow onward north west, west, and south west there. To my right the next thing to the rocks was a giant stone protruding from the earth covered in some bits of moss and this was the way up north east, east, and south east the large stones blocking the view farther eastward.

I looked down at myself and saw that I was naked and saw my hairy body with peachy orange pink skin with the clump of hair near my dick and the bits of hair around my paunch that was what I called big but was indeed fat as was my thighs and down till below my knees where the fat became scarce, to my feet that about made the standard foot length in length itself. I hugged myself around my pudgy and hairy belly squeezing and pressing my fingers into my flesh feeling the fat and skin and contour of it. I liked my belly even though it wasn't big and only extended a hand length and a half from the line of my spine. I touched my belly and hugged it the joy welling up in me as I stood on Pranoke Moon.

Sko, the mirror match of me appeared in full form and I suffered my mirror reflection that I feel when I do look in the mirror and looked down at his belly and it stuck out much differently than it looked when I peered at it from above and it stuck out probably the same length and a half of the hand but then went smooth protruding curving shape of it and its circle of a belly button. The other features I paid less attention to were my head which I could not see much of except for the mirror and Sko looks blankly at me his brown eyes nose and mouth small compared to the forehead and brow which my brown medium short hair sat atop the circular shape of my head. Other than that he wore the small glasses that I do and that did not to magnify his eyes.

"I did it Sko, finally came to Pranoke. Oh, the things I want to go do now!" I spilled out to Sko.

Sko joined in with a smirk that made me shake my head, "You forget, I know what you know. You haven't had full on sex before. This visit will be pointed, I'm sure."

I looked around sensing a dragon closing in from the mountains, "Oh yeah, he is here."

I ran down the path and sighed as the carriage of the merchant was pulling away down the dirt path as I emerged from the path leading up to the knoll.

"Sidge should be here in twenty seconds," Sko remarked me floating leisurely from up the path to the knoll and I moved out onto the road and looked down it as it twisted around the trees and disappeared.

I turned to Sko who floated a few steps back and the dragon came into view. It looked like a dairy black and white splotched bull and yet upon closer inspection it was a dragon crossed with a bull retaining all the dragon traits except its front paws had talons which were more so into a hoof shape. His legs were hinged to move as an animals and its belly was big and almost barreled and a half. Its snout, tail, neck, and overall length were much shorter then a dragons, making his overall length to be almost a tree length and stretching in width about the size of the road which was almost half a tree in itself.

I approached it and it made a threatening growl it moved its forelegs before me and I faced him, my heart pounding and myself griped with the anxiety and the creature took me and shoved me into its mouth and tilting its head back I slid down into the hole at the back of it's mouth. I passed down the slippery pulsating and warm tube of it's gullet, gooey and rough and pink. Overall, it was an oblong shape. It's throat muscles pushed me down toward a watery gurgling splashing gurgle sound and ahead I saw an opening which was sort of a flap that closed in a circle and was the same pink color as the creature's throat. It closed and opened revealing an additional flap beyond it which also opened slightly and closed but went into a shrived looking orifice. The smell was strong and acidic but not so much for me and I Ignored it as it came from the good and the whole orifice.

The sounds were a low squishy gurgle as the opening opened and closed but soon I was against it and pushed through it and the second opening closed over me penis arousing my sexual senses and I fell into a bliss dream as it was a fetish and a dream to have such happen to me. I could sleep on touch alone but I didn't. The ejaculation came abruptly and surprised me but I did it in the opening and this caused me to slip through into the stomach, a sac folded organ with green goo at various parts about it.

A clear liquid oozed in from the walls of the orifice itself. Also, the whole orifice contracted narrow abruptly and I fell along it's rough yet pillow rippled surface whereas I dragged my body along it and I ejaculated again and stood up almost slipping and immediately saw the ruby laid right at the near middle of the stomach so I treadled lightly ducking down as my movement and the peristaltic movements of the stomach itself shook the caverns and when I picked up the ruby the cavern of a stomach expanded a bit. Then water started rushing in for a few seconds from the top opening. Then I was thrown down and flopped again, evidently caused by the creature moving around outside, flying about. This flopping which more so took my stomach away, then finally it stopped and I lay lengthwise reflecting on how blissed and uplifted I myself felt. I almost drifted off to sleep in it but I didn't and stood up.

Looking up at the folds above I called, "Sko."

Sko blinked in and nodded.

I grabbed a stomach fold feeling the squishy ooziness of it, "Y'know, once one's inside. It's nothing too special. Experience in and out. I should be much more aroused but after the initial trip, I'm downed."

"Maybe you should do something else inside here, like water, or fill him with food," Sko said.

I felt the interest drop out of me. It wasn't gone but I wanted to do something else and come back to it, and I sensed out further down the road, stretching my perception further until I met a really large mountain and found myself inside the mountain, "Who own that settlement in the mountain?"

Sko looked off preoccupied and then replied, "It used to belong to dwarvenkind before Lady Explore enticed them south. The mine bled dry so they left long ago. Unfortunately, Ias. The structures are a wreck and there are left over inhabitants. Large bugs, large worms, monsters, chaotic humanoids."

I sighed looking down then back at Sko, "Well, lets see what I can do. I need a project. What did they call it?"

"Beloc-tor," Sko spoke.

"I'll call it Primeon," I smiled.

Sko led the way as sort of my protection, he didn't really show much emotion at times, most masprits did as if they carried the weight of the universe on their shoulders and like it was an uncomfortable burden. But, I still appreciated Sko and trusted him.

The way to Primeon I knew would lead us to Mt. Belone and looking up and down the mountains we were passing around I saw the lower bulk of Belone extend upward into the mist and fog disappearing into it. I wasn't surprised when Griffens started appearing circling above us. I looked up at them stopping and saying to Sko, "I have a feeling it gets worse."

Sko nodded turning toward me. I looked at them circling around us again and one swooped down at me and smacked right off me and went falling down into the ravine. Several others swooped down at us but I held up my hands and they froze midair. The ones that were left circling still continued swooping at us and I leapt out of the way down the path and was picked up by one of them in their talons but I touched it's feet with my hands, burning them and the creature screeched dropping me and I alighted at the top of the mountain. I did not want to hurt them more than I hurt the one that picked me up yet they were angering me.

"I wish Sidge was here. He'd eat them right up," Sko said flying up to me so I floated across a gap between the bends in the mountains and to the next one espying a few trees growing on the side of the mountain I passed by first. Yet, not one of them followed when we got past the first bend. I heard distant screeches behind us as I settled to the ground.

"Not too far now," Sko said floating off the side of the cliff and looking down the line.

"What else has settled here that I should know about?" I asked.

"Those," Sko said pointing at the mountain we were near and there were small cat like animals with a human or monkey gait and build clothed in loin cloths and looking at me completely focused on my moves.

"Mountain Caits, right?" I questioned.

Sko nodded, "Not as much a threat as the Griffins."

"There goes my hopes of getting to Primeon without incident. And that quarry ahead of us is perfect for ambush if the goblin tribes still have a hold over this section," I said looking down the path and the next bend. It was indeed not a bend around a mountain but around a quarry of cluttered jagged rocks.

"Look there," Sko said pointing at the mountain behind the rock quarry and I intuned my vision and saw a thick white furred and hoofed creature.

"Hey, a mountain goat," I said and I noticed we had more caits watching so I bade Sko on and he led the way on around back on the line and up around the quarry. I could sympathize why we did not meet many merchants on the way through here. I saw though with relief that a few more mountains separated us form the base of Belone. Then I turned to look down into the ravine and there was a dolphin with flapping wings. It did not emit a word when I looked at it but swooped around flitting about the air with a few high pitched clicks and was joined by others from below and down into the river I saw them emerge and dive into from time to time.

"Amazing! Now all we need are a few other creatures and we're all set," I reflected and looked back at the quarry and found myself staring into the eyes of a large beast probably nine or more feet tall that seemed to almost be a lion as it had a sort of mane and face like it but it was dressed in a crudely stitched vest which draped down to it's knees, "Um we were just passing through," I said to it with a smile though I felt a bit uneasy.

It gave a grunt and tromped away down the way we came and I let out a deep sigh of relief, "How about we get to Primeon before something else happens."

Sko nodded looking after the big creature and we started off thankfully reaching Mt. Belone without much more incident though I did see a few goblins with pikes upon the top of one of the mountains. There was also screeching near another one.

The entrance to the tunnel which would lead into Primeon was slightly obscure because several stones had fallen afore it.

I didn't need to move them so we started into the cave and the mouth of it was large indeed and just inside we could smell a musty smell of dirty compressed with hot air aged from inside the mouth and inside the mouth was circular and smooth brown stone yet had a few bumps and cracks at some points. At the craggy base of Belone the path came by at a straight and widened line and continued off into the mountains.

I focused in on the inhabitants in the base. The waves were getting the attention of many underground creatures.

"More can sense our presence, make haste, we need to get inside," I said looking up into the sheer rise of the mountain into the gloom of fog toward the sky.

We passed into the mouth and down an incline until we were level with a passage of stone blocks lining it all around dull white with many chipped and fallen to pieces that added some piles of rubble here and there. We arrived at a gate which was a stone wall that met the walls of the cave all around except at the ground where the portcullis and double wooden door met there in the center. Sko made a lift motion at the portcullis and it rose with a loud screeching metal upon metal sound.

Sko held up a hand as the gate opened and bats started spewing from inside and I gasped as the smell from inside gave way to me with thick air and human and non human remains strewn between the next part of the tunnel and the next gate.

The bats must have came from the higher up windows of the gates where the guards of old would watch the tunnel. I thought of what other creatures inhabited the mountain. Then something knocked me over and I immediately sprung back up and swooping around was what looked like a cross between a hawk and a dragon yet retaining the outward shaped of a hawk while being longer in length as a dragon and having a long shinny feathery tail.

I did not have the time for this and I heard loud multiple screeching from back up the tunnel so I gestured at the dragon hawk and yelled, "Paralysis!" It dropped down to the ground with a thump, twitching.

"The door, Sko," I told the Masprit and Sko made a lifting motion at the next gate and the portcullis lifted but stopped halfway, the mechanism stuck. I ducked under it and willed the inner door unlock and open and rushed, as the wind, into the tunnel but was immediately stopped ahead by several large rodents sleeping in the way between some rubble.

"I don't have time for this," I shouted waking them up and I stormed through them stepping on one making it squeak and they all scattered away from me as I passed up to the next large double doors. I started to sense a very deep pulling feeling.

"Demons? Sko, can you take care of them," I said to Sko. I was disappointed that isn't wasn't Sidge. After the trouble so far getting there, I realized how warm and non violent being inside his stomach really was.

"Ias? You're going to need to confront this anyways," Sko called to me.

"When I get inside," I called back and turned my attention onto the door and willed it open whereas it cracked and burst open assaulting me with heavy stagnant air and face to face with a ball of energy.

"Stop!" I cried at it and it froze as I went by the crumbling stone hallway with crumbling tables and chairs along the sides with four doors evenly spaced on each side. A few tattered faded cloth banners hung from the top but I didn't take in anything else and oriented on the far door at the end of the hallway but a fore I got to the second set of hallway door blobs of goo rose from the cracks into the ground and confronted me shaping into human shapes and my frustration and anxiety cause me to unleash my wrath upon them vaporizing them into the air. I made for the door at even pace whilst I heard faint screeches become more sheer as well as louder and closer and I got to the door and flung it crashing opened and it was quite a large door taking up half the wall and I entered the circular room that extended upward to the top of the mountain. I immediately turned around facing the splintered door and backed to the center of the room and said in a whisper, "I'll deal with them now."

I saw something move down the hall in the tunnel and everything was quiet. Then I saw the creature enter the hallway huffing deeply and it looked down the hall and saw me and immediately screed. It was a deep black corporeal form that appeared to be serpentine or draconic. It couldn't be draconic. Then, I realized it was using my thoughts to take form as masprits did. I thought about Sidge and Sidge is what appeared to me, bull-dragon form fully as I remembered him.

With a leap it was bounding toward me and as it reached the door it took a leap and was instantly on top of me.

I was swallowed again and subjected to a bout of sexual bliss again over the bumpy yet squishy smooth descendence into the demon's Sidge stomach and I immediately sat down. Concentrating, I set up a barrier on the exits out of the sky room and sent my thoughts to the creature, "Sidge? Ah no, your name is, Zazar. You can't escape this room Zazar."

I sensed the creature's thoughts such as how does he know my name and what does he mean I can't escape whereas I felt an abrupt jerk and whirl o the stomach and the whole of it started to jiggle and jerk me around a bit but suddenly stopped followed by waves of shock starting around me and from outside the creature and above I could hear a gurgly scree. I attuned my senses outside seeing through the creature's eyes I was faced the doorway I crashed through and the creature now smacked an invisible barrier because his claw ricocheted off the air there. The creature's thoughts were hostile and his stomach bubbled and gurgled all around the folds straightening and the whole slowly expanding and contracted slightly.

"How would you like contentment for the rest of your days?" I thought to him thinking about how fun it would be to have an incubus or succubus. The thoughts resounded back to me as: I want to get out! I want to get out!

That put me off but I wanted to force it but I also had a overnagging thought to let it play naturally, so I teleported outside it and sat down at the opposite side of the room from the door I crashed through. I stood there and watched the creature's belly sway and jiggle as it slammed and swiped the barrier and grunted and screed at it. Then there was a gurgle and it whimpered.

I lifted the barrier and the creature butted the barrier with his horns and finding it gone exited and looked down the passage and went down it and toward the second inner gate.

"Sko?" I asked and turned my attention to him as he appeared.

"Yes, Ias," Sko said.

"I'd like five or ten minutes with that," I said.

"The demon? Oh." Sko asked looking at the exiting dragon.

"Now that I think of it they were not all there. Some stayed behind," I explained to Sko.

He shrugged looking back at me, "I can tell that you want something deeper with Sidge as another form or as he is. It seems it would be but honestly all this to get him as...?"

"Psuedo Dragon, a pet. He needs to be shown that our relationship is mutual. I don't want it any other way. I'll have to go and find him and talk to him about it, I'm hoping he'll come back," I said to Sko.

Sko nodded, "Sort of a Mascot?"

I grinned at Sko, "I've kind of liked to have a dragon as a pet still."

"For belly and stomach purposes," Sko said indifferently to me.

"Perhaps, yet a familiar isn't too bad," I replied as I said that I realized how fruitless I was being and I looked at Sko with a smile.

"What?" Sko asked.

"Register my thoughts," I told him and I thought about having Sko as my familiar and had pictures of the creature Sidge in my mind.

Sko laughed, "A solution good enough?"

"Just a pole that I might climb from time to time," I told Sko and I outstretched my hand toward the passage and called after him, "See you later!"

"True, after all this is pure experimentation and speculation," Sko commented.

I turned to him and I looked around thoughtfully considering my surroundings, "No, it's not necessarily that. It isn't entirely make believe anyway. But down to business and have fun with my angels later."

"What business should we attend to?" Sko said to me. I looked at him and his indifferent expression and decided to let him have a say, "You are my assistant or, well, that may be still subservient so how about and equal partner. Anyways what do you suggest," I said smiling as Sko balked at me.

"Well... I... I..." Sko sputtered back at me.

"Assume form at will," I said and Sko nodded and became a foggy transparent corporeal cloud form before me.

"What do you suggest we do?" I posed the question again.

Sko looked around the Skyroom and made a motion with his head to the right and said, "Here's a good place as any. You really haven't been here before."

"No I haven't," I replied and I examined the dark skyroom seeing it went up and up into the darkness, "Illuminate," I said.

The whole of the room nearest me responded by erupting into light. The Skyroom seemed to be in bad shape with drops falling down from above where the illumination ended yet the walls had spots that had missing blocks of whole crumbling sections. Along the ground were piles of rubble and earth and the storm drain at the center had half the grate bashed in and rusted over.

"What should be fixed?" I mused aloud.

"I will start on the walls," Sko said and floated off the ground and to the wall where the section had started to crumble.

"I'll join you in a second, let me sweep the floor," I told Sko and went to work at it. After I had fixed the floor I joined Sko in fixing the walls. I thought more focused when I thought while I worked. I pondered over the dragon, Sidge, who had left us and the turn of events. It was but for lust that I wanted him as a pet but I already had a familiar in Sko and quite a familiar he was.

I had a notion to assume Sidge's form and see what it felt like. I'd assume serpent forms as well as dragon forms before but not like this. I was out of practice as well.

I was a little concerned as to what we would find here as we cleaned up the mess. I was the prospective mortal immortal but it was these thoughts that reminded me of my still part of mortality yet I was half breed and I knew neither would or probably could fully accept me. It seems I only had Sko for what it was worth yet I realized a point in that I didn't consider Sko much yet he was an independent familiar who had stuck with me and came to me and performed admirably. I felt obliged to give something back to him but what?

"Sko," I said.

"Yes," he replied from on the opposite wall. We had risen quite a ways above the floor and the illumination followed us and the walls didn't look any better on the ways up.

"If there's anything I can do to give something back. You've been beyond good to me, it's indescribable," I told him.

Sko was quiet so I went back to applying the metagic and restoring the wall at it quickly restored before my eyes.

"Demons..." Sko suddenly said making me jump.

"What?" I asked with a slight uneasy smile on me and I turned around and my smile vanished and my heart dropped out of my body as Sko had assumed a dark misty shadow in the light. A typical demon form.

"Am I a demon? It's what you fear isn't it?" Sko rasped.

I looked at the shade for a moment then I realized that this was his own doing so I smiled heartily and said, "No, I don't mind demons. I told you you could assume anything you want."

I turned away and sighed and continued to work on the wall where upon after a few minutes Sko said from behind me "Don't worry, I don't need anything. I will stay with you till I am no longer able."

I looked over my shoulder and saw he was back in his previous form.

"Thanks," I said looking back to my work.

We finished the skyroom after to what my guess seemed to be an hour. There was a large stone boulder blocking the way up but we removed it and the night sky opened up above us and soon we were at the top of the mountain at the top of the battlements of the tower ring. The view was breathtaking to me, expanding in all directions as a sea of clouds nearest the mountain ringing the base some ways below and finally ending in a sea of green.

Then from the clouds shot a dark patch which ascended up straight for the tower. I immediately ducked and it flew right overhead and off the other way.

"What is it Sko?!" I said.

Sko looked at it as it came closer then as it made another close brush with the tower Sko said, "You know that boulder we destroyed?"

I felt my limbs go cold, "Oh no! It had a nest atop it."

"Yep," Sko replied.

I jumped into the hole and enjoyed the fast free fall, alighting just as I reached the bottom settling gently down.

Sko joined me soon after, "I put the boulder and nest back."

I sighed relief, "Thanks Sko, and for the foresight. Ugh. What next? North South West or East passages?"

"How about we go to the entrance and repair the doors and passage tunnel there?" Sko suggested.

"Ah... Good idea," I said, though I was starting to feel tedium at the task.

We made our way, opening the newly repaired south doorway. There, were met by a creature that was one of those large rodents but it squeaked and ran the way into the tunnel and hid behind one of the stone piles. I slowly moved on and to the stone piles and saw a hole near it. I tapped the rubble on both sides and it vanished so I turned my attention to the state of the stone bricked tunnel covered in grime and tarnished, bits of white did show through but I was only worried about the broken and crumbling parts for now.

"We have no need to repair the hole at the bottom," I told Sko.

"Only the damaged parts." Sko said.

"Don't cover up any holes up above or anywhere here. Next will be the doors and only to repair hinges, door, and the outer frame in such a way all down the tunnel until the stone passageway ends," I explained.

We set to work repairing the crumbling passageway and the gates.

Ere we got through the inner gate the Dragon griffin swooped at us again. We backed into the section before the main entrance and repaired that instead of going on.

"I don't want to upset the animals that are already here," I said to Sko.

"Maybe if we go invisible we can repair around it. There must be a nest or the thing is protecting it's home," Sko replied and I nodded so we went invisible the rest of the way repairing the first gate and the tunnel between it and the inner gate.

As we moved up the tunnel toward the entrance, I could hear thunder echoing outside, "It's a good thing we're inside."

We finished the tunnel and returned to the Skyroom.

Primeon consisted of several floors which I knew about even before awakening the Altimentor in me.

The floor we were on was the general convening floor and had four rooms square in each corner of the fortress between the halls. Each end to the north west and each gave way to a tower and a stairs which gave access to the other floors. In the old times, the groups of the four rooms were labeled block A B C and D and given such by designation.

Yet first the floors in general.

The floors underneath the first floor started with a floor dedicated to training and experimentation and included a set of labs. The next two floors included the stores both of weapons, food, clothing, etc.

The floor above the first one held barracks and command post for the soldiers which once guarded the fortress. Also, the southern end opens up and has double reinforced stone tunnels which lead down to the two gates into their interior posts.

The Third floor holds libraries, studies, and record archives as well as a block section for special archives.

The fourth and final floor holding bedrooms, private offices, and other rooms of that sort. The stairwells on the north, west, and east ends continue upwards into towers which have combined posts, stores, and barracks themselves for the sentries which would be posted there.

A stairway starts above the second floor at the south end and makes it's own turrets.

The only differing floor is the fourth basement floors which are dungeons and have at each block one single room with three smaller blocks having cells while a fourth one is the jailers room.

There is a secret passage which leads to the rooms of the top tower and to the top tower itself and this is in the bedroom of the Commandent of the fortress. It is beside the bed and is a movable part of the wall accessed by pulling at a brick. It has a passage that leads down and to an escape route to the mountain's base as well as a passage that leads up above the keep circling around the Sky room into the tower rooms section.

The reconstruction of Primeon while being careful not to disturb any resident creatures took several weeks and had several incidents, that I'll relate.

There was one room upstairs in the bedroom which had a pendant in the shape and resemblance of an emerald green dragon eye.

This pendant of the dragon eye had a unique summoning ability. It was a summoning that put the summonee into a state of forced intimacy sort of a summoning love potion.

I knew exactly who I wanted to summon for such a duration. I also considered the potency and duration and found that I could use the summoning Gem an unlimited amount of times, being an Altimentor. I could also increase it's duration but I decided to leave it as it is. I found the main duration of intimacy to be one day with potential lasting effects that depends on the summonee.

I was going to summon Sidge yet not in the bedroom. I moved down into the Sky room and bringing the gem above me and calling at it,

"I summon Sidge."

A great green light burst forth from it and showered down to the ground forming the outline then the form and color of the dragon cow sidge. I took the gem and let it down and looked at the creature.

It looked at me and immediately came up to me and nuzzled me at my side. I took my free hand and holding the gem in the other caressed the rough yet furry top of it's head.

"Was you mother or father a cow?" I asked the creature.

"I don't know about my father. My mother is a dragon so I am a dragon." The creature hissed softly.

I didn't doubt that fact and the fact his form might not go over well wit other dragons, "How do you like other dragons?"

The creature snorted at my side, "They had fun with me at first, sort of a play of youth. Then when you get older, females just don't come near you and I don't feel entirely right around them either."

I felt slightly guilty at the summoning love spell and I almost cast the gem down the grate in the room yet I snapped my fingers at the creature and moved away as it was released from the spell. It looked lost for a moment then gave a grumble upon seeing me and backed up against the wall looking at me warily.

"I will get you a mate," I said stamping my foot at the creature.

It looked square at me and I felt a wave of understanding from it.

"When?" It hissed and I blinked surprised at such a quick response.

"I'll start now, there may be one on this world," I tried helpfully and the creature moved a few steps from the wall toward me. Yet I knew that it was the chance roll of the dice that he existed the results from the lower masprit basic functions, and not with any interference from us Gods, with hardly even using my senses that one did not exist in the world. I resolved to allow it to be at least for now but from what I knew of animals, a mate may not want to mate. Animals, at least some, choose whom to mate with.

I looked at Sidge and squarely told him, "None on this world. Yet . . ." I looked at Sidge and I willed myself transformed into Sidge in form only yet not in mind.

The female genitalia additions had to challenge me slightly see Sidge being a dragon cow had the several stomachs of a cow yet had the one large main dragon stomach that let into the other stomachs. The bulk was heavy and my abdomen bottomed out and I moved on all fours to gain slight balance and tried to sit back on my butt and toppled right over. I felt my tummy and it was ruffed fur and my paunch was two times flabby and dense to the touch and feel.

I played with the bulk of it finding it to be quite jiggly almost a balloon filled with water. My demeanor and my state stayed the same and I was immune to the hormone change which would take down my ferocity yet increase my susceptibility and feeling.

I in fact got up onto all fours, the knowledge filling in and walked not so wobbly up to a wide eyed Sidge and pushed my body along the side of his and taking his face by my two paws and looking at him and his unsure expression saying, "Such a goody goody Sidge."

I gave him a light swat at the side of the face and laughed. He chuckled back uneasily so I put my hand on his neck and on his bulk and brought him down to the ground and pressing my bulk smoosh onto his I licked him on the muzzle giving a grin which I imagined was a toothy one.

I had to arouse his organs and relieve him of his startlement but his instincts finally took over and he wrestled me into submission sort of lightly locking his jaws on my neck and giving me a penetration yet the genitals were for show though the penetration was indeed a new startling thing for me making me jump and felt like a warm wet object inching quickly back and forth in me. Then he broke away and rolled slightly away but still looked at me and finally said a light hiss of thanks. I nodded slowly and looked up into the dark Sky room quite unsure of myself but I smiled and shrugged looking back over at Sidge I rubbed my hand or claw as it was over his rough yet dense bulk of a paunch and he hissed with a satisfaction. The belly was rough yet it had a slack quality and was all in all a warm jiggly pillow.

Sidge had five Stomachs and the fifth one took up a great section of it's abdomen. Seemingly it was a type of overgrowth that was somehow mixed from his mother and father. I speculated that Sidge's father was bovine and some type of bull. I wondered how that bull had forked such a potentially dangerous creature as Sidge's mother was.

Yet Sidge had a natural pot belly and I considered him a special breed called Pot belly dragon. Yet I liked it and Sidge. The creature was quiet yet sensible. It took up residence in the Sky room and kept it quite neat and deposited it's wastes down the grate which did not constitute to a smell being the drain went too far below the keep at a substantial straight drop. I only worried that the grate would collapse so I reinforced it with spell and steel.

Being the combination creature that it was Sidge had a voracious appetite soaring upwards to near and sometimes greater than near a ton of food.

Feeding time was interesting and I say this because I like such thoughts about stomachs and the upper GI tract. I find it quite a sexual and personal fetish. Coupled with the idea that I was fat and that I liked the creature's large abdomen I usually awaited Sidge's feeding time with an instilled anxiety close to exhilaration.

I fed him royally and made a particular bread dough with an odor and taste of meat mixed with grains to satisfy both the dragon and the bovine side.

Then, I materialized and carried a gigantic platter topped with several pounds of the semi cooked dough and set it down beside where he laid. He stood up on his hind legs as I came in. Then he immediately laid down and I laid down right in front of him parallel and made sure my stomach and belly pushed comfortably into his. I put one arm around his abdomen for leverage and whilst he had his head up and looking at the dish I fed him with smiles of deep infatuous grins. The globs of dough were about half the size of his head and I presented him with a glob and watched how he ate and swallowed it. I rubbed his belly a few seconds after he swallowed it looked deep into his eyes at which point he rumbled and closed his eyes as I rubbed his belly for a moment then opened them to accept another morsel. The process wasn't slow and steady. He belched at times and rumbled and licked his chops, he even without warning regurgitated some of it. Though it did not make a mess I figured that him doing such was a bovine reflex because he cleaned up the mess and chewed and swallowed the rest.

He finally got full and his stomach become firm enough that his belly rubbed and pushed up against me and pushed me away a bit. I retreated ere I knew it was uncomfortable. I felt joy and loved every minute of it continuously and I rubbed his belly with full affections.

I didn't think he would be I asked and we role reversed where he fed me. He told me I'd love the baked dough because I did bake it.

I was a little reluctant when he started to feed me but eventually I just pushed up against him and faced him with my hand around the bottom back of his neck.

He fed me each at a slightly faster rate I'd feed him and my stomach in mockery would feel full up and though I didn't need my body organs sending me the contented blissfulness that I seemed to feel from a full stomach yet I felt them otherwise it was a uncomfortable sense but oh a good one. Sidge did not rub my belly after and even pushed against me making it quite uncomfortable and quite awkward but things started to go a little slower and more intimate telling each other bits and pieces about ourselves how Sidge dreamt of meeting one like me and I telling him about how I had wanted to be intimate with such a big bellied creature.

After we were done, I changed back into a human form and Sidge snuffed, "I just only go for female dragons. I can't with males. I was just taken in so much. I mean, a friend is as far as I want to go. Awww, this is awkward umm what's your name?"

I sensed it was true in the dragon's mind. This one and only experiment to him was over. No doubt. The definition of a heterosexual male of his species.

"I'm Ias," I said smiling and stretched out a hand. Sidge presented a hoof shaped claw and I shook that.

"Sidge," He said.

"We'll get you some cow-dragon lady tail. I promise," I said to the Bull-dragon. He grinned toothily.

I went to Sko soon after, finding him floating around the rooms below the main floor. The room had many tabled sections with beakers and flasks and burners and ring flask stands to put them on, like a lab. Sko was sitting on a high stool at one of the table reading a book he'd picked up from the library which I chuckled at since he didn't need to read to know the book. He looked up at the chuckle.

I took the opportunity and spoke, "Can you roll the dice? Make a lady cow-dragon?"

"He's a real stubborn dumbass isn't he? Are you hoping he'll oh yeah I sense he is pretty straight. No deviation. That was definitely as close as he'd get. I'd not try it again being a girl dragon," Sko said absently.

"So, will you do it?" I asked again.

"Why don't you do it," Sko said simply and went back to his book.

I looked off to the side and said after thinking, "I will, sometime. Let's continue on with looking through and fixing things in Primeon."

The experimenting labs and that whole level of Primeon has some interesting devices, one which I find quite interesting. It is a sort of dragon compass. On the top of a metal pin sits a figurine of a dragon. One places the tip on a metal dish with the figurine in the air and the whole pin moves toward any dragon with the figurine floating atop the dish pointing to it. The compass can even flip upside down and the rest of it tips over the whole way without leaving the center.

Ere I took this out when Sidge was near, it lined up with him until I got too close and the pin flipped upside down floating still a line with the pointed tip stationary and the dragon figurine pointing at Sidge. The whole thing couldn't be more than the size of my hand.

The dragon compass was just one of the many items of the fortress experimentation levels yet suddenly the compass stopped pointing at me and flipped over snapping toward the south door of the Sky room then back at Sidge. Multiple dragons, I sensed that one just flew across the sky over the mountain.

I turned my attention back to the experimentation level. It was fixed with many wards and traps which did explain the fact that even though everything was coated with dust it was largely undisturbed. In a small side vault in one of the rooms I found one of my favorite items I like to carry around. It was a rod of silver slightly larger than me. It's power was almost too great for a mortal soul to handle and it almost had a life of it's own.

I arranged to have Sko embed himself to this Silver Rod giving it a double ethereal glow. A medley of other trinkets were imbued weapons and armor.

Although I didn't mind going naked I selected a heavy blue robe with light blue embroidery in a sort of square line square pattern. This robe had almost extreme protection yet the feature that I liked the most was that because of my presence near it the robe near absorbed anything touched to it. It had two inner concealed pockets which I put a few other trinkets in. One was the trinket I summoned Sidge with and the other was a dragon repellent gem that when invoked would generate a shield against dragon and dragon breath. This was called the dragon bane rithem.

The piece which made me move relieved and anxious was sort of a sliced in half blue triangle gem with faucets too numerous to count that gave it a type of rise on both sides. This gem was an attempt at accessing dimensions from Pranoke and suddenly many dimensions opened up before me. There were rooms unused in Primeon. I wondered if I could take one room and use it as a dimension yet I decided to hold it off for now, there was many a thing to be done on Pranoke itself.

I put the dragon compass parts in the pockets.

I had stories of adventuring around Pranoke yet I still had Primeon to consider first and it's adventures.

Sko and I descended the steps into the darkened passage of the experimental floor, the first time we'd ever descended into it. I wanted to get a good look at it. Yet ere we descend the stairs and came into the main hall we were stopped by a triangular faced and bodied cat-like creature with drooping swords for ears and a cape over it's back. I stopped and gazed at the creature, tilting my head from side to side.

"Uh welcome sirs, it has been eons since we were last visited down here. I represent the head of the guardian protectors of this level of Primeon. We protect Primeon and especially this level. The others you may meet, I protect this level especially. Yet your power is great . . ."

"Can I hug you? You look so fuzzy," I admitted blushing a little.

"Um, sure, sir," The yellow fuzzy creature said and I embraced him. He felt soft and fuzzy indeed. I felt awkward but still happily courageous hugging him at first encounter but I could sense what he was, but I released him and he went back to floating in front of us a deeper shade of around the cheeks.

"You can do what you want, Debacho, don't mind us," I spoke to him.

"No, we yield to your power. I am Debacho, a masprit cait. The Drago-hawk you met at the gate is called Vigaush. Gesh guards this level, he is a troll, and old dangerous yet gifted weapon maker. The lower two levels are guarded by Elaejia and Nellms, two Cadis Draks. The whole compound is protected by reigning masprits totaling five. These few more so defend us from magical interference and general assault. We have had many guardians perish from age or desertment. We have tried recruiting others, including those giant rats you seen at the entrance. We have a bat rat upstairs called Redalis from the big mice families whom wandered in here. She's more an alarm than anything being as small as she is she is a natural enemy of Vigaush," Debacho told me.

"What about that black bird at the central tower?" I asked.

"That is a Nocturval and it has nested there for the season. A very large hawk type bird that goes out at night to hunt. We've tolerated her because she defends her nest," Debacho responded.

"Anyone looking after the meeting room level?" Sko asked.

"I was, you haven't really looked at it though," Debacho pointed out.

"No, we have decided to look at the state of the other levels. I can imagine how the meeting room looks," I replied.

"Well then..." Debacho struggled.

"Ias," I replied.

"Right, Ias, our new lord, we must have you meet our other guardians. As you realize, there's not many who wish to be inside all the time like this and maybe you can change the spells," Debacho said.

"Sure, I'll meet them. Who's who?" I replied to Debacho.

"There was an old sorceress by the name of Karen Kavenshire, somewhat of the Maginean race. Very Knowledgeable and a great record keeper. She used to look over the library. But then one day she was gone and Eckstal took over the library," Debacho continued.

I started laughing at the name and had to put a hand on Sko's shoulder to keep from ending up on the floor laughing. After the laughing fit passed I said, "That's Karen Kavenshire. She's an avatar. She's heh she's the Goddess of Knowledge, Lady Explore, she's my Elder Goddess."

Debacho's eyes went big, "No."

Sko and I nodded and grinned and both grinned and laughed a moment and Sko commented, "I'm not surprised. The Dwarven ingenuity and grit."

"Sorry, continue, Debacho," I said letting out a side laugh and grinning widely tittering stifling another full laugh. We were what we were as the God keepers, but we could still choose when and how to use the information we got. We paid special interest to the avatar names and always talked about what we did as avatars.

"Eckstal and Wovelmlos akin to a neat tidy intelligent race. Eckstal kept up the upstairs quarters. Wovelmlos kept up the first floor," Debacho continue to explain.

"What about the guards?" Sko asked.

"The entrance is from the second floor and includes the main command post. Also, there are barracks or siege barracks at the four towers and the two gates," Debacho said.

"Thanks, Debacho, lets go meet the guardians then," I said with a smile.

"Will do," Debacho said alighting into the air and turning away floated down the hallway choked with an unkempt air and had an old rotting flesh smell that I imagined would turn the stomach of much else.

We skirted around the center of the hallway where the hallway circled around the supposed lower level of the Sky room. Then we were in the eastern hallway dotted by two sets of double doors on each side equidistant positioned to each other evidently leading to four rooms off of the halls. Debacho floated up to the far right double door and they swung inward from him and he passed inside. Sko went before me and we went into a room covered in soot over stone brick. In the center was a large forge with a large heat hood hovering over it. This gave way to a pipe which vent to the far east wall and into it.

Elsewhere, hanging on the walls and littering the floors were weapons and devices of metal. Several metal chairs were in between the trinkets about. Beside the billows was a trough about the size of the stone forge and hanging about the forge were hammers, billows, and other blacksmith tools.

On a chair aside the forge, leaning up against it with one elbow to prop him up, was Gesh. He was asleep and snoring audibly. He was a pudgy creature, big and green his skin rough and gnarled. His legs were long and so was his nose. He had gray hair and a few warts on his face. He wore a loin cloth around his waist and which stretched out to his knees yet I could still see his dick under there. He was dirty as well as old lightly coated with ash which made him look a darker green.

"Gesh," Debacho said.

I nodded and said," Gesh, Troll weapon maker. Has made weapons for mentors, kings, and warriors alike free of charge as long as one has many raw ores and rare metals and celestial metals available to him, also makes armors."

Debacho stared full on at me, "How?"

"He does know everything even though he is limited linearly. He just likes to keep silent for the audience," Sko explained for me and I nodded.

I turned to Gesh and sang, "Wake up Gesh."

The troll woke up and stumbled to his feet, "What the slivers?!"

"Gesh, we have new masters," Debacho said.

I didn't wish Debacho to get away with that so I became visible, "Nah, you can do what you want. I appreciate the creativity of honest to goodness weapon smithies. Anyways, you Gesh and the rest are free."

Gesh bore his eyes into me, "What?!"

"Gesh, this is the creator," Debacho told Gesh.

The troll became wide awake at this, "Yeah right."

I laughed at his reaction, "Maybe I could put you to some use. I'd make my own grounds outside. I'm not sure how I'd use your skill."

"Whether or not I anything I make in use I am happy to make any and everything if I have the materials and they are raw enough... And I gotta' shit!" The troll said and went out through the door we came through and to the right. The last part caught me off guard and I stared out the door after him.

Debacho hovered up and faced me, "I'd still like to stay with you if I may?" Debacho said, his expression imploring at me.

I looked at Sko and he looked at Debacho, "Yes, Actually he was going to band together his old team if he can find them. There's some that won't necessarily stay in the Silver stream all the time and Inskirus is no exception. Explorers and helpers a like. It's up to you if you want to help with such a task?"

"Yes, of course," Debacho said with a nod.

"Then, I'll give you a task. I need you to tell the others what has happened. Sko, you resurrect Zeck and Slas and inform them. I need Nellms and Elaejia and Redalis, Vigaush, Gesh on my team. I will get Sidge myself. There remains the task of Alvin Abernous, Wovelmlos, and Eckstal which I will talk with all ere we get everything started.

"There are more, no doubt, yet those for now. Don't worry about talking to Gesh, I'll explain things to him ere he gets back. And, oh yes, there is a full dragon of whose name I forget... Sedas!" I conveyed to them.

"Then I shall see to it," Debacho said and vanished.

Sko winked and was gone himself.
