Sometimes you have a headcanon that is so divorced from the source material it should probably just be ofic, BUT ALSO so context dependent on canon that it makes absolutely no sense without the textual lacuna it is filling.
#this is about the series of progressively deranged leaps I have made explaining What's Up With Dragons In Middle Earth#ENTIRELY unfounded suppositions BUT only makes sense in the extremely specific context of First Age Ang and#to do this independent of the Silmarillion would require constructing Morgoth from first principles but also.#extremely out of left field within that context#anyway they're dwarves. dragons are what happens when you try to Orcify dwarves#well not to start with. but if you're Biblical Elf Satan you can get there.#apply distilled essence of Oath of Feanor to dwarf souls and then do whatever you want to their bodies#because Aulë made them and you're better than him and boom. Dragons.
