"Dragon humours have all sorts of uses, and leaving them to soak into the dirt is a crying shame. Whenever you're butchering a Dragon, remember a pan or something to catch all the good bits."

"It is strange, this reaction I have to garlic. In all my wanderings, in all my research, I have never encountered another vampire thusly affected. It is true that some popular lore holds that all vampires have an inherent weakness to garlic, but this is simply not the case. My situation, as far as I can tell, is unique."

--Vicente Valtieri, not realizing he has an allergy to garlic unrelated to his vampirism

Moraelyn: "Considering the shape of your mouth and teeth, how do dragons manage to speak the humanoid languages so clearly?" Akatosh: "Why, in much the same way that we can fly, even though our wings are not naturally strong enough to support such heavy torsos."

#uesp #the elder scrolls #lore #daggerfall #legends #According to all known laws of aviation #there is no way a dragon should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. #The dragon of course flies anyway because dragons don't care what humans think is impossible.
