“You’ll do the right thing, even if you’re afraid. You always do.” - Davion, DOTA: Dragon’s Blood, book 1 episode 6.

[synergetic-prose]

Initially I wasn’t sure if he was just saying that to make her feel better. Mainly because the decision to go on the faster, more dangerous path in the snow wasn’t exactly a good choice.

But you know what?

He’s probably referencing her taking him in even though he’s basically part dragon. And also when she made the decision to cut her line so the others wouldn’t be dragged down with her.

Who calls the Dragon Knight?

I haven’t talked about the DOTA: DB series enough but I love the parallels between Davion and Mirana.

Davion, Dragon Knight:

First see him self assured in his position.

Has a life changing event in a cave/cavern.

Now that he’s soul bonded (or whatever you’d call it) with a dragon and no longer in complete control of his body and mind, there’s the question of whether he can still slay dragons (ie his anger with Kaden cutting up a dragon which is actually Slyrak’s anger).

He no longer is happy/proud when he announces himself as a dragon knight (that I recall).

Has a nightmare where he says “I am nothing” which is echoed by Slyrak, “nothing.” Which, without his title of Dragon Knight he feels like he is nothing. And/or mixed with the fact that he’s not in control of himself so he feels like his life is nothing.

Mirana Princess of the Moon:

First see her looking for the lotuses via an elf, which we later see there’s tension between humans and elves. Then later at the black market displays complete calm in the face of danger.

Has a life changing event in a cave.

Prays to Selemene, saying she is nothing (and in the next episode Davion says he’s nothing in his dream).

Expresses not knowing who she is anymore.

We also get little bits of information that sounds like her uncle in the Helios Imperium is looking for her, so that elf saying she’s “princess of the moon, princess of the sun” could be that she was a princess even before Selemene.

So further conflict of who she is, especially with the growing doubt with being a member of Selemene’s followers

I finally started to watching Dota dragon's blood and its awesome I am now at episode 5 and so far I really love it

So I had to sketch something from it it's actually the first time since maybe 6 or 7 years that I draw a dragon 😂

This scene

[synergetic-prose]

Hear me out: lgbtq+ Mirana and Davion.

Why?

M/f doesn’t automatically mean straight.

Mirana showing jealousy (or at least saying “I’m not jealous”) when the new priestesses think they’re the favorites of Selemene.

And then again with Davion when she thought he was avoiding her (which he was but not bc of something she did)

Davion having some hero worship (maybe mixed with a crush?) when talking about how he once poured a drink for Kaden.

Missing her hours <3

Yeah so I was making illustrations but i realized i painted on the wrong side of the paper.

Invoker: On our side we have facts, science, and reason. All Selemene has is fear-mongering and lies.

Invoker:

Invoker: Oh my god, they’re gonna win.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: DOTA: Dragon’s Blood (Cartoon) Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Characters: Davion the Dragon Knight Summary:

just the world’s shortest character study thanks to a friend who wondered if one of the reasons Davion seemed to embrace celebrating with villages after he killed a dragon was because, deep down, it reminded him of his own lost village. Set before the beginning of the Netflix series.
