Dragons thru the ages

By

Billy Brent

Intro

• Almost every civilization on the earth has legends of the same mythical animal civilizations that had no contact with one another yet they all came up with the same animal from China to the Aztec's even the Inawits that live in a frozen land where no reptiles are found even they have stories of this animal the dragon

Ancient

• This dragons story starts in the age of dinosaurs he hunts them and fights them he fights for territory to get a sours of food and the thing that every young dragon needs to pass on to the next generation he uses his weapon’s with skill and takes over the territory but his triumph is short lived

KT event

• At the peek of the dragons success a meteor the size of mount Everest crashes in to the earth and kills all life on land nothing bigger than a cat will survive how did dragons survive long enough to be remembered by humans

Marine

• The dragon that did battle with T Rex had a cousin a marine dragon this dragon is long and slender its winds evolved in to fins and its tail is a ruder it lives off of fish it occasionally had a encounter with a shark but that’s just one more meal

Forest

• After life reestablished its self the marine dragon moved back on to land in to the forests of china and became the forest dragon this dragon hunted the small mammals of the forest when its hunt is disturbed by the mighty tiger it hunts down this threat and kills it one less rival one more meal it scorches away the tiger fur the fire atracks more curious mammals

Human interaction

• The humans steel what makes the dragons so powerful after they take the dragons fire they hunt down the dragon forcing the dragon to leave its home in the forest

Mountain

• After the dragon left the forest it went to the mountains to the west it lived in caves when the ice age came along it hunted the mammoth's that roam across the grass lands below after the ice age the food has grown scarce and the dragon has been forced to pick off the farms of men this forced the humans to start the knights to stop this threat

Human interaction

• The humans of that age killed the dragons the last of a legendary line of animal’s or maybe not dragons are still out there in the deep waiting to return to land and take its revenge for all the harm that we did to its ancestors

Legend's

• the Persian legend of the dragon there was a knight that was leading the king thru the desert they stopped at a spring a dragon protected it whale the knight was asleep the dragon moved in the horse woke him but the dragon went back in to hiding when he went back to sleep the dragon came back out and again the horse woke the knight and the dragon left the next time the dragon got to close and the horse woke the knight the dragon could not retreat and it was slain by the knight

Saint George and the Dragon

there was a dragon that lived in the swamp lands around a town it pillaged and killed countless people so to prevent the dragon from attacking any more the village sacrificed someone for it once a week soon the town leaders daughter was chosen to be the sacrifice when the dragon came out for the sacrifice a knight came riding up and jabbed his lance in to the dragons head killing it instantly

Modern dragons

• Dragons in the modern days play parts in video games always the bad guy something for the character to fight

Conclusion

• Myth or real that is the question so many civilizations in the world that had no contact came up with the same legend so isint it more logical to beleve that they where real

• Now after all this do you think that all the civilizations where just making it up or do you believe that dragons actually existed
