and why not throw another non sequitur into the mix, a quote about Dragon Medicine from Shamanic Ways

For those who believe, Dragons can play a very important role in one's life.
A Dragon may also be a very powerful spirit guide. They are intelligent,
insightful, knowledgeable of the ancient ways and world origins, and have
great wisdom. They are also playful, yet cunning, able to phase between
worlds, familial and extremely protective, and must never ever be taken
lightly or for granted.
