1: It was originally a worm. How it got there is unknown, I believe. It was just there. And it ate and ate and grew into an enormous serpant.

2: The one it calls its master is the Shadow Lord. The Shadow Lord came and probably used his dark magic to corrupt Reeah's mind and make him do his bidding. Though a serpent would be greedy and want things, I guess. The Shadow Lord let him have the Opal and a crown in which it was embedded. Reeah can see into the future after that.

3: I don't think they did that often. Are you sure you're not talking about the few times they were spotted flying with the gems to scatter frem across the land? Otherwise I think it would be to check on Reeah and the Opal's whereabouts and make sure the g em is asfe.

Also, Josef said that last thing because he feared that the Belt of Deltora was no more, or at least that the gems were taken from it, and that the Shadow Lord had at last invaded the land and would cast it into a time of ruin and dispair.

Stay creative,

Best,
