Listen up, lads and lasses. I'm not a scholar or an artist. As a dragon hunter, I'm more comfortable with a sword or crossbow in my hand than this annoying quill pen. Here, dragon, let me stab you in the eye with a pen. That ought to fix ya. But truth is, I've seen too many young dragon hunters go off and get themselves killed, because no one gave them the gritty details of the business. So I've decided to write this book to pass on some of the knowledge I've gained from experience. I'm going to tell it like it is. If you don't like what I have to say, go ahead and leave this world in a blaze of flaming glory, because that's what you're going to get if you race off to hunt dragons untrained and unprepared. So read carefully, practice hard, and hunt smart.
Kumar Raza
Understanding Dragons
Many books about dragons have been written by scholars over the ages. Most are heavy tomes that subdivide dragons into thousands of different species, give exotic names to every bone, muscle and scale, and discuss the principles of dragon physiology and flight. If you are of a bookish nature, I suggest you travel to the Chronicler Jati Repository in Daro and ask the head matron there for books on dragons. You can read about dragons until your hair turns gray and your teeth fall out and never know all there is to know about them.
Or
You can read this overview of dragons and then devote your life to hunting them rather than studying and classifying them. Like the old saying goes, You will never understand a dragon until you look it in the eyes.
Dragon Classes
All scaled creatures with legs are considered dragons, including those that also have feathers or fur. Dragon is a generic word used for all classes, types, and species of dragons. For instance, if my pet kitrat peed in my boot (again), I might holler at it, "You stupid dragon. I'm going to skin you and eat you for dinner," although the kitrat is technically a tame lesser serpent.
Dragons are divided into two main classes, majestic dragons and serpents, which are characterized by the formation of the hip joint.
