You had recieved word about an ancient dragon that inhabited the Ice Plains.... You thought it was a myth so you had no worries when you found out that you had to pass through the plains. You certainly didn't expect it to be a dragon-human hybrid.

.... And you certainly didn't expect that the dragon would be being hunted either.

The dragon was surrounded by a large mob of hunters. He was already severely injured from previous battles and was therefore struggling in this fight.
