Dragonkind - Chap 7 (CWS)

__TOC__
Dragon. The very word conjures images of terror in even the heartiest, bravest soul. To most races, those visions are of wings blocking out the sun, of deadly breath belching fire or acid. Great maws filled with daggered teeth haunt such dreams. Huge paws tipped with claws like sharpened swords lend a bitter realism. Most know these majestic creatures as thundering engines of destruction that plunge suddenly from the sky. 
Dragons have ancient histories and traditions, however. Their lives are filled with not only blood and the hunt of sport, but of long-established cultures and civilizations that were old before the first human learned to make fires or tools. 
What drives these great and terrible creatures, what forces shape their perceptions of the world? Surprisingly, dragonkind can be defined in a single concept: They are products of time.
