With the activation of the Authority: Gluttony, David had thought he would see everything his Red Dragon ancestor, Christoph, had glimpsed. Instead, he saw only a river—a mighty stream of time.
Through it, David seemed to see the origin of the Multiverse. He witnessed the grand Dawn War, saw the Dragon God Tiamat raining down a meteor shower that birthed a host of dragons on Toriel, and also beheld the tragic and lamentable Dragonfall War.
Everything was like an epic tapestry unfurling before his eyes.
In that instant, David had an epiphany.

The collective memories and experiences of all dragons, linked together within the river of time.
The ultimate confluence of destiny.

He suddenly saw a figure on the banks of this river of time that made his scales prickle.
