Message: <blockquote data-quote="Theo R Cwithin" data-source="post: 5382998" data-attributes="member: 75712">I envision the mythological western dragons as pretty bestial creatures, little more than animals, whereas the eastern ones are much more intelligent, and even spiritual.  That distinction makes me wonder how the dragons would relate to each other....  I can see the civilized eastern dragons hobnobbing over their hookahs, speaking wise things on topics of art and philosophy and inter-species relations. On the other hand, their western brethren are marauding the countryside torching villages (because "fire is AWESOME!") and seeking those tasty little metal-clad meatballs (what the bald monkeys call "knights").  The eastern dragons would regard their western cousins as barbaric brutes, and the westerns would view their oriental relatives as elitist snobs.Perhaps the two types of dragon even waged war upon each other, for dominance, or pride, or some other inscrutable draconic reason.  Indeed, maybe it was these wars (largely fought far from the prying eyes of human civilization, of course) that kept the dragons' numbers down, allowing Man to replicate like rabbits and eventually take over the world.</blockquote>
