Regarding Dragons in Nirn, Second Edition

by Gilsa Hlervu

A treatise on dragons in Nirn

---

esigned to give you all the information you need about the mythical dragons of Tamriel, this is an updated version of the previously biased and inaccurate report detailing that dragons throughout Tamriel did not exist. I have evidence that that is incorrect, and I'll assuredly give you a nice read on some of the least known entities to roam Tamriel.

Unlike any previous accounts, where dragons were perceived as evil, felonious beasts, this was hardly the case. Although the word "dragon" corresponds much of the time to Akatosh, they in fact are not simply part of a god's being. Dragons have helped the empire in service, as well as Akavir...for quite a few years.

Looking for a dragon? Well, it may not seem so easy especially considering that they often seclude themselves deep into mountains or deserts, and even so, when you do it may not be the most pleasant encounter. While dragons, such as the red dragon Nafaalilargus have spent quite some time in enduring service to the Empire, they still can be quite sensitive; especially in regards to anyone stealing their valued rewards. Nafaalilargus by the way, was sent by an Imperial Commander, Richton, to attack the crowns during 2E 864, and was paid rather handsomely. Although eventually slain by the Redguard mercenary Cyrus, Nafaalilargus put up quite a fight, one in fact to be remembered.

Not only by the evidence of this one dragon, but by the various sightings of Dragons found in Resdayn, along with the Alik'r desert, can we conclude that dragons may still be living in Tamriel today, just very secretly.

However, before you think of finding a dragon in Vvardenfell, remember that they were likely driven out long ago by cliffracers, according to an unknown source. Believe it or not, the great amount of cliffracers came upon the dragons like locusts, and the dragons were forced to move elsewhere, perhaps to northern Cyrodiil, or back to the Alik'r desert. Perhaps, even to Akavir.

Speaking of Akavir, although there are not many records from journeys to the Akaviri continent, we often hear Akavir as the "Dragon Land", as that is its literal translation. Like Resdayn though, dragons in Akavir are likely extinct. Although the name corresponding to the continent is true, they seem to have perished in a war between the Tsaesci and Po'Tun races. Although this seems like a problem, this source was cited from Mysterious Akavir, and well, Mysterious Akavir simply is not the most accurate source.

Everyone still hopes to see a living dragon somewhere, someplace. It is quite unlikely you'll want to see one, and even more unlikely to find one, but the intelligent creatures could likely still exist today; perhaps in places more unknown than I have suggested.
