ĭuring that same battle, the valiant Dragon Prince Learfin and his mount, Galrauch the Gold Drake, were leading the left flank of the Elven host against a vast force of Daemons of Tzeentch. The most renowned of these duels was the one that decided the Battle of the Isle of the Dead, where Lord Aenarion and his Dragon Indraugnir fought against four Greater Daemons, one sent by each of the Dark Gods. The epic clashes between these mighty creatures were events of such magnitude that the mortal warriors could only witness them in awe, to later turn them into the songs and legends which have survived from that distant time. The strength of the Dragons could only be matched by the greatest of the Daemons, living incarnations of their god's power.
These great wyrms were the nemeses of the armies of the Dark Gods, diving from the skies upon the evil warriors, crushing and incinerating them in their thousands.
Galrauch, the Great Drake, is an ancient Dragon possessed by the will of the Lord of Change Fateclaw, becoming the first of the Chaos Dragons.Īt the time when the Elves fought their great wars against the tides of Chaos under the mighty Aenarion, Dragons were at their side.
