While I was researching on Dragon Kingdom and some of the Sonic Universe Issues, I saw that picture of Endless Reach and began to think why the Gossamer is the only clan having a bride that completely covers herself  in a robe, and it reminded me of an Islamic woman, so I began to make some research on the connection between spiders, spider-webs and the islam, and I found an interesting quote from the qoran here:

“ The outcome of the conflict between the spiders' weak silk and the iron of the swords was the defeat of iron. My house is considered a parable of weakness,  ''"Verily, the frailest (weakest) of houses is the spider's house." ''I sat in my house protecting the noble house of Islam and guarding the Prophet of Allah, Muhammad ibn ' Abdullah”

 I was really interested in that quote, because it had some really interesting connections to the four houses when you think of it as a text about Dragon Kingdom.

 Let’s translate that to the storyline of Dragon Kingdom’s war;

 ‘’The outcome of the war between the spider’s weak clan and the iron dominion was the defeat of the iron dominion, my house considered a parable of weakness. ‘’Verily, the weakest of houses (or clans) is the spider’s house.’’ I stayed our cave protecting the noble clan of Gossamer and guarding the Bride of Endless Reach.’’

 (or something like that, I’m not the best English-speaker)

 And it would make sense, because the gossamer clan is the clan that nobody really cares about, right? I mean the Raiju Clan and the Yagyu Clan both are in the Eggman Empire, and the Shinobi Clan is still quite powerful, but no one really seems to care about the Gossamer, right?



 And just for fun, I want to admit that ‘Gossamer’ is just another word for spider silk. Yeah, I’m having just a lot of fun analysing Dragon Kingdom and it’s roots in the east.
