The nature of history itself defies us. To know with certainty what the last Dragon Emperor thought or planned or schemed would require not only an understanding of the draconic mind lost to humanity {if indeed it were ever available}, but also a comprehension of the particular form of madness which took him in the violent days that ended his reign. Certain facts are known: that Morade's clutch-mates contested his selection to the throne, that the battle between them raged for three human generations, that their end marked the opening of the ages of humanity. But these are generalities. Vagaries
