I love dragons and I've always have. They are probably the most amazing and most powerful of all fantasy creatures combined. They are also considered to be the most mysterious and thus misunderstood creature as well. They are one of the only creatures that I have believed that existed a long time ago. They lived during the dinosaur era up to when humans began to walk the earth. Dragons were considered the most dominant of the animal kingdom until the humans showed up slaying them for eating their livestock and to make money off their hides and horns. Even when they did successfully kill them, they most likely died in the process, and were never able to return to tell the story of their existence so their bodies remain frozen in time. Even today dragons might exist just as they evolved into modern reptiles as a way to hide from humans. Some dragons even might have been shape shifters and even today capable of changing to look like humans and live among us, but even the dragon disguised as a human evolved to the point where, he/she never knew his/her true identity. So from that dragons only exist in myth, found in books and folklore. Not all people wanted to kill them, but more to understand themas for who they were and respect them. Only few have succeded in gaining such an important bond between dragon and man. Even today we are still learning about draconology (the study of dragons) unreveling the truth that remains hidden. Until we learn to believe and respect them, wall reveal the truth, because if they do exist, they will come out of there hiding that has long been darkened by war and betrayal and through understanding and trust we become one once again.
Understand that this shows what i think dragons were like, since they could of been anything, or nothing at all, but just a figment of our imagination.
