Dragon Lands

The Dragon Lands are a region outside of Equestria known for being home to many Dragons, who are ruled over by the Dragon Lord.

Description

The Dragon Lands are located on a large island in the Celestial Sea, east of Equestria and south of the land mass where Griffonstone is located. The region is known for its volcanic activity, with volcanos and lava pools appearing prominently throughout the Dragon Lands. The area is arid and rocky, with mountains and other large rock formations and little in the way of vegetation in those areas that are inhabited by dragons. Caverns of various sizes dot the landscape, and the sky is perpetually cloudy.

History

One of the earliest accounts of the Dragon Lands is that of the Ancient Dragon Lord, who ruled over the Dragon Lands long ago. Sadly, after showing kindness to the young Dragon Scales, the Ancient Dragon Lord was betrayed and his Bloodstone Scepter stolen. This led to the Reign of Scales over the Dragon Lands, though little is known of this period. Some time prior to the formation of the Pillars of Equestria, future member Flash Magnus and his Royal Legion comrades were ambushed by a pair of Dragons while flying over the Dragon Lands. After an intense conflict, they succeeded in luring the Dragons into some storm clouds they had amassed, and were able to make their way home in safety.

Over a thousand years later, Spike would visit the Dragon Lands after joining in the Great Dragon Migration, though he and his Pony friends would leave shortly thereafter following an altercation with Garble and several other teenage dragons.
