Here There Be Legends, by ArtieStroke

"So, I've been meaning to ask something," Ditzy said, one eye on her homework as Kikai perked up.

"Hmm?"

"So, obviously the Munarin and Vaucoi were... involved in the past? With Earth and stuff, I mean."

"To certain degrees."

Ditzy tapped her pencil to her chin, "So... were there any other, uh, aliens that...?"

Kikai nodded, "Yes, a few, though I must admit, not all of them were the savory sorts," she said, shuddering.

"Yeah?"

"Well, there was one empire in particular, though I must again admit, having gone through the tragedy of losing their home world, I can see why they might have lashed out so much."

Kikai looked up, Ditzy now sitting at the edge of her seat, staring with rapt attention. Kikai cleared her throat.

"The Empire of Bahamut. Incredibly strong warriors, if rather too fond for battle for my taste. Their world was unfortunately lost; official records at the time stated that their sun went through a premature supernova. Aside from their strength in combat, they were surprisingly genetically malleable. There were very few cases where a Bahamatian couldn't pass their power along with another sapient species."

"Huh. I think there's a myth about a dragon named Bahamut on Earth."

"Yes, the very same."

The five seconds of silence that stretched between them seemed to last an eternity.

"...You know, at this point I probably shouldn't even be surprised that dragons were actually aliens."
