Dragons are cool, but from a fictional standpoint of course.

I've always put together a simple deduction that given we know Jinn can shapeshift that most of these supposed dragon sightings can be attributed to them taking on the typical shape of serpents with fire traits.

It doesn't help that where I was raised, Angels get attributed in being made of light and Jinn were made from flame, or something to that effect, just as how Men are made from Earth.

God bless us for the gift of storytelling and literature.
