One of the biggest dragon species is living in the northern regions but after many wars and climate changes this race is dying out and only rarely found. The famous Blue mage Merlin build the big dragon cove fortress, where he prisoned a green dragon and studied its behavor, he found out that, with the right approach, the dragon was rideable, soon he trained dragon riders and so the green dragon became a war instrument.
