Dragons are quite possibly the most annoying creatures in the world. Covered in every color combination of scales and feathers, they’re the unholy embodiment of a rainbow. I’ve never seen a dragon with less than a dozen colors, but the ones who insist on having every possible shade variation are the worst. For all their creativity, most end up looking like some kind of exotic rooster with four legs, long jagged teeth, and a distinctly reptilian look. How is that even possible, you ask? Trust me, they manage quite well. Our dragons are not noble and wise by any stretch of the imagination, no matter what my simple-minded fellow villagers seem to think.
Even worse than their appearance, however, are their personalities. The unpredictable savages are the worst possible creatures for a poor village to raise. Not only will they go on rampages that end with the deaths of dozens of villagers and the destruction of many of our houses, but they also mutilate each other. Come market time, when those that are maimed bring in less money, that also hurts us. Why the Elders didn’t decide to raise a more peaceful species I’ll never know, but it’s too late now. The treaty has long been carved into stone and some other prosperous villages are reaping the rewards of a calm existence farming with the elves or fishing with seals. How I envy them. All dragons are selfish, brutal beasts, turning against all others over the simplest of reasons, often with no reason, and for that I despise them all. Elves and seals don’t kill their High Keeper for no reason, the week after they accept him.
