A taboo? - Snippet from COSMIC WARS for #WeWriWa #SciFi

This weekend, I’m continuing a scene from my latest release, Cosmic Wars , Book 5 of the Grand Masters’ Galaxy. The Griffins, Violet, Athanor, and their son, Varan, are at home when their dragon friends visit with their baby, Istros. You can read last week’s snippet here – https://auroraspringer.blogspot.com/2018/07/dragon-friends-snippet-from-cosmic-wars.htmlI’ve skipped to a little later in the chapter. Excuse my misuse of semicolons.
While the baby dragon and boy splashed in the shallow water of the stream, Violet described the planet of Gorland and its inhabitants; she concluded, “The Nulls, like dragons, are immune to our zyzost powers.” Athanor growled, “They have joined forces with the Ixioths in our galaxy to invade remote planets and capture new slaves.” “The fate of Vrons lies out of the claws of dragons,” Ythris hissed, rattling his scales in displeasure. “The scales,” Violet sent. “You phrase the request, my persuasive wife.” She rolled her eyes at Athanor, and turned to face the Black Dragon, “We have a question for you, Ythris.” “A Zyzost Vron may ask,” His great golden eyes glinted in sudden interest. “Master Smith Stimon suggested dragon’s scales might be impervious to the Nulls’ weapons.” Ythris rattled his scales, while Istrelle stilled. The dragons’ flare of emotions made Violet hesitate; had she overstepped a boundary?
