Dragons are spawn creature. The only lay an egg after great many years. Egg shell are considered as the most precious on the world, more colorful,  glittering and beautiful than the most beautiful gems. Broken shell pieces still have great value after that. Dragons don't hatch so their eggs are always hid in dangerous places, are guarded by other creatures or buried under ground deeply. Baby dragons will break out after years, decades or mabe centeries.

Their blood gives people who receive it tremendous strength, muscle bodies and long lives. Because of that, in pass, many journeys had happened. The arrogant people who didn't know where their position on the world seeked and hunted dragons, the divine creatures. Blood and flesh of dragons gave them power while their scales, teeth, claws could be used as materials to make weapon. They were considered as wonderful and rare materials. The hardest and sharpenest things were made of them.
Dragons like to live in vast, quiet and clean places. They live in other places, deeply in ancient forest, on top of high mountains, on bottom of seas or hiding themselves in clouds but all of them are apart from people's places.
Though no one could prove it's real, some ancient people believed that they had ever seen real dragon. They believed that drangon brought prosperity to places they appeared.
Whatever, dragons are woderful creatures. They symbolized power, intelligence and authority of kings.
