" Then the dragon was raising her head, the scales of her jaws dripping red
with gore. She licked her lips and shivered, huge and proud and dreadful, her
razored tail lashing, gazing about with red-glowing eyes. She took a long,
shuddering breath, her eyes focusing upon Ilska and Drekr standing before her,
small and insignificant against her hulking form. "

― John Gwynne , The Shadow of the Gods (The Bloodsworn Saga, #1)
