After the war ended in victory, David left the military in search of greater adventures and signed on as a vessel repairman on a clipper ship bound for India.

A storm blew the clipper off course and it was smashed on the reefs of Dinotopia. He was luckily washed ashore along the eastern coast, while other survivors were carried by dolphins to the opposite end of the island. David had landed on the beaches of Volcaneum, and was warmly greeted. After his first summer in Waterfall City learning Dinotopian ways and customs, he moved to Pooktook where he used his metal skills to his advantage by working as a blacksmith.
