When the end of the rainbow crashes into the sea, one can see all the colors of the Giant's favored beasts. From the glorious hues cradled by the sky, to those glassy colors that transform the light. The righteous are transformed, those that love their creators. But those who see themselves as scorned have reduced themselves to instincts of their baser. When the two intersect at the rainbow and sea, one can see the way they are meant to be. For the hideous truth of the dragon's creation, was that they were formed to become the ultimate abomination. Their forms stretched and DraKaise imbued. To become a being so great as the wretched snake, a complicated tool only fit to be used.> Quote > Text > Description > Colors > Life Cycle The ultimate predators, beings that are said to be made purely of magic, Dragons walk the earth of Ithungsida and pollute the skies with flames. But the chants of the ancient Elves say that it wasn't always this way. No, in the time before the third age and the creation of Arydia, the giants had less control. Twice they destroyed their attempts at creating the world and maintaining it. Before they set about Creating the Knotted Snake part of their creation of the Snake included finding the best form for it to take, so before the dawn of the third world, they created Dragons. Some dragons viewed this to have been manipulative of the giants and they instead identified with the new creation that had been wrapped around Arydia as a way to keep the giants from destroying it, the The Knotted Snake. These differences have grown in the species and marked as a large divide between the so called "Chromatic" and "Metallic".

Where are these quotes from?
The Dragon's cry of Creation was recorded by the initial Dwarven settlers as they roamed the new land of Ithungsida and persuaded Humans to part with the land's secrets. More modern interpretations have ridiculed the translation, but the cry remains in circulation via stories and bards.
