Description

Dragons, nasty creatures, but necessary in war.

Most of the time they want nothing to do with humans, and will unceremoniously murder any in sight. Dragon riders must always stay vigilant, else they might just become the victims.

That being said, some dragon riders, if they survive long enough, end up developing symbiotic relationships with their mounts. Especially in times of war. You see, dragons love war. If you lead them into war, they relish in it. If you feed their thirst for death and destruction, they will come to respect you, and listen to you... and that goad you carry, will no longer be used to smack them into submission, but to simply point them to the next target.

Nice composition, I think I can almost feel the heat from the flames all the way over here. Detailed background too. Good work.
