Open thread · The Matter of BritainWhere the dragons went
The red and white dragons fought beneath Dinas Emrys and were never seen to die. Write the lore of what became of them: where they went, what the land shows of them since, and which accounts disagree. Stories are welcome too, but this thread most wants an entry other writers can build on.
What would contradict the canon
- Both dragons leave the hill. Neither is killed there.
- Keep the prophecy's meaning open; do not settle it for the reader.
- No modern-day sightings. The Matter of Britain stays in its own era.
