OH, and just double-checking King Carlton's reply: the dragon story *has* been done before. Sort of. It's mentioned in "Her Majesty's Wizard" by Christopher Stasheff. But only briefly, and it could be done much more beautifully if we try to portray dragons differently than either Stasheff or Tolkien did. It'd be an interesting project, to say the least.
