Ok correct me if i'm wrong but the only great dragons we've seen actually die have either done so at the hands of other dragons or offing themselves. Dragons have taken hits from Orbital lasers with no real affect other then scar tissue. Ghostwalker more or less single handedly kicked the Azzies out of Denver. Another single handedly razed Tehran to the ground. Am I the only one who rolls their eyes a little bit that dragons seem to be the only beings in the whole settign who are out of the realm of possiblity for anyone but themselves. Even immortal elves have bit it (although at the hands of Dragons). Does anyone know what possible point this serves other then to pay homage to earth dawn?
