Sad and true, Oli sounds like they truely want to put a face to those names. Makes them real people like her/him?
Oli get yourself figured out your confusing me now!
Also we Australians have a saying that kinda fits here. ‘Less We Forget’ a reminder to remember the dead and the veterans who suffered so we could have a future. Feel like it fits the old Drekir. ;.-.;
Also nice work with the facial expressions and body posture, really gave that shock and unease the characters had for the conversation.

Yeah whether or not Oli is growing as a person they also need to learn a little bit of tact, intentions aside.
It particularly fits the drekir here considering their whole religion spawned from remembering the martyrs who died "so they could learn". Though there is a lot of tragic and dark rememberence for the massive numbers of drekir who didn't make it out of the first 4-5 years and especially the 1st year post awakening.
and thanks!

This elder feels like the first Drekir who Oli would try to that prove she isn't a bad person to. Like hopefully when she tells him she didn't loot their graves, exactly, she would try to be gentle about it. That she just asked those invasive questions because she still needs things to anchor herself in the here and now and remind her that all the people and the deaths happened and she needs to be more present.
Hmm, since turning your handwriting into a font, it feels like some of the text is missing some emphasis, like underlining of some words, or italics, just to help to feel certain emotions being said. I really like the harckening back to the past, and maybe I was just expecting to see like seething expressed through some italics or something. Just a little late feedback about the font! Keep it up, I'm super interested in this world!
Considering the unimaginably harsh situation, l find it inconcievable that any and all means of survival weren't undertaken by humans who awoke as Drekir in the dragonscape, and will forever scar those who participated with an unbearable memory. A memory unlikely to be shared with a possibly judgemental stranger. In this instance, the tragedy of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 in the Andes mountains comes to mind.
I assume with the Uruguayan 571 reference you're referring to cannibalism. That would likely happen in the dragonscape, both in the early years presumably by desperate people and by at least two notable cultures in the dragonscape. The Otterboy culture being paritcularly known for ritualistic cannibalism both of the dead and of drek eggs for mostly religious reasons.
Again there is a reason the story picks up decades after the early years, kinda atonally dark for a story about colorful dragon raptor tribes.
Though this is one of those cases where cannibalism is highly unlikely considering the not burned, relatively intact and not heavily dismantled state of the bones and also the heartfelt note. So its not that.
Dwights probably just traumatized from those bleaker days and likely had personal ties to those two folks and is at least partially offended that some stranger dug through their skeletons and is now asking questions about them. It's a personal affront as well as a cultural affront (with scorchers being ancestor worshippers) as well as a reminder of very bad days.

As someone who survived the early years, and became an elder within a drekir tribe who worship their ancestors, l'd imagine Dwight is accustomed to being asked questions about those difficult times. Considering his reaction, clueless Oli has definitely not left Dwight with a good first impression.
They sent a stilted scientist to a land they thought was insane and dead, but turned out was full of people. Oli is not an ambassador, and I'm afraid he's severing a lot of potential ties his group could use later.
Ash could be nicer about it -- though he is revealing a lot of information as it is -- but no one's gonna argue about his behavior not being justified, especially since Oli's been so rude.

Yeah very much a blacksmith at a pottery class situation, and diplomacy may be a huge problem but to be honest I think every objective Oli entered the dragonscape with have most all been failed... at least getting out hasn't been failed!
So I imagine at this point Oli isn't really thinking of themselves as anything less than needing to get out and not necessarily mulling over the implications of their social interactions. I imagine a drek as old as dwight has a good list of things they want to talk about and things they don't want to talk about and its a bad line to cross.
