Final Day of Smaugust 2021. What a ride it was. I'm actually kinda surprised that I was able to finish this challenge. But now, I'll definitely take a break from any further challenges... at least for quite a while.

Compared to species like the Black or Ore Dragons, Ryu Dragons are nowhere near as aggressive but are definitely reclusive. They prefer to remain within the confounds of their own species. The few lucky researchers who were granted a brief glimpse into their society noted that Ryu Dragons operate based on a sort of clan structure, with the eldest and most experienced dragon serving as either the patriarch or matriarch of the group. It is unconfirmed whether or not they have complex "political structures", but when compared to other True Dragons, who embrace a more naturalistic lifestyle, the Ryu seem more... sophisticated, even if they aren't any smarter than the other species.

And, for the last time, a link, to my prompt list: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/43043260/
Thanks for watching and following my Smaugust journey.
