Is it ingenuity of hubris to refine the mighty scales of a dragon down into this thick and sturdy leather?
To the Wild Knights it was the natural order. Hides became leather, which became a resilient second skin they would wear whilst riding into battle. Favoured by archers and scouts due to the nimble flexibility of the scales, whilst still acting as a resilient bulwark against sword, arrow and claw alike.
To the people of Emberwood village, however, such sights were akin to blasphemy. Whilst the green dragons showed little mercy, the villagers loved and adored their majestic draconic protectors, Imaru and Xikotal, and they thought that wearing the skin of their kind might potentially cause offence.
