What kind of ships are Vivacia, Paragon etc?

[fool-ish]

anyone writing longer texts will generalize on details they do not know enough about and either can't or just don't research deeply into. Typically those areas are the ones that are of less interest. RH appears to have some interest in making sure that her dragons have the natural physical ability to fly, describing the parts of this in detail. Whereas other authors either just say. "they can fly" or "magic aids them".

oh, and on the topic of non-RH dragons... What do you call a dead dragon (of the fire-breathing sort), no matter if it is male or female?

Gon? Sorry
