“Women changed their entire lives, embraced it from one stage to the next and emerged stronger, more resilient for the changing. Men, it seemed, strove to keep life unchanging and predictable.

“We didn’t have words. We didn’t have writing or maps or language, but we had music and in that music, we spoke victory and loss, sadness and rage. We sang fire and water, earth and sky. We wrote the history of the Battle of Lamos and told the story of Selisanae of the Sun and wove the tragedy of the lives and deaths of dragons in every land. It was marvellous.” SongLanguageMusicWordsDragon Book:Dragon of Ash & Stars: The Autobiography of a Night Dragon Source: Dragon of Ash & Stars: The Autobiography of a Night Dragon
