Dragonrider - Tumblr Posts
The Dragonrider šSwipe for close + timelapseš . . . First post of 2020! Luella starting off the year not playing games! I was trying to get this done on New Years Day but sleep cycle said not today. Guys, when I tell you that I was having so much fun doing this drawing, Išš¾MEANšš¾IT! Her character development is just *chef kiss* perfectionšš¾ Quality Content I absolutely love that when you look at my Luella drawings from the past to now, you almost see a timeline. I love it. This was originally going to be me sketching more outfits for Luella but then I thought āWhat about what she would wear while dragon riding? You canāt wear random stuff.ā And then got carried away. The little story that I made up in my head is that this is 15 year old Luella getting ready to wreck Grindelwaldās shit. Raju (yes, the dragon I spammed yāall with finally has a name) is of course, right behind her and they are prepared to wreck stuff. In conclusion: We stan harder than before. . . .

okay so I am currently reading NUBIA, ETHIOPIA AND THE CRUSADING WORLD, 1095-1402 by Adam Simmons and WE HAVE A DRAGON SIGHTING:
...in 1267, Roger Bacon continued to discuss dragons flying to Ethiopia from Latin Europe and told how dragon meat was used as a remedy for old age in his influential OPUS MAJUS amongst multiple pages of supposed information on 'Ethiopia'. MIGRATORY DRAGONS! But wait - there's more! Here's the relevant endnote for this passage: The passage regarding dragons being a secret to living a long life and increasing intelligence, which is why 'Ethiopians' come to Latin Europe to fly them back, is on II:211 (Bridges text); II:624 (Burke trans.)
OK so (a) where is my historical Norse fantasy featuring Black dragon riders coming to tame the dragons and ride them home to 'Ethiopia' (not the modern Ethiopia but Nubia, which today is in Sudan) and (b) I have to find out more about this stay tuned
