What separated the four dragons septs in the first place?
The origins of the dragons are shrouded, but five septs were established pretty early on. Political differences between the septs have meant there have been occasional wars involving all five groups, most notably the Endless War of the fourteenth century, in which the dragons engaged in an all-out battle for supremacy that resulted in the Black Plague. The fifth dragon sept, the black dragons, disappeared in the middle of the nineteenth century under mysterious circumstances. The whereabouts of remaining black dragons are known only to Kostya.
