Dragon Scales Quotes

“Puddles of rainwater glowed like the discarded scales of a dragon.”
― Tan Twan Eng, The Gift of Rain

“My wings made their way out from my back first, the easiest step as I settled in for the rest to follow. It was like flexing a sore muscle that you never really use as my spine popped out the deep-green plates that would make up the ridges on my back. Growing longer, harder, scales rolling down my body as they came to life, limbs stretching until everything felt in place. Deep-green scales covered my body, and I flapped my wings experimentally a few times, testing the wind for takeoff. The roof of the mansion that had looked so big before was now eye level as it gently burned to the ground.”
― Sabrina Blackburry, Dirty Lying Dragons

“Indo’s white scales appeared as an almost iridescent opal, each one evidence of the magic within. He might not have been able to breathe fire, but it ran through his veins— one way or another.
To think I owned a magical sanctuary with a dragon… it felt inconceivable.”
― Taylor Epperson, Second Time's a Charm
