dragons had long been considered dangerous. Many believed them to have the intelligence of wild beasts for the longest time. Thankfully, new research has long since emerged, and dragons have been declared to have the sentience of humans and given basic rights. However, they are still considered to be slightly less than humans due to their unpredictability and animalistic tendencies. As such, all dragons were required to have a handler; a human who would care for them and take responsibility.
