I'm thinking on it right now...

A couple of years ago, the dragon-dream connection prompted the idea that dragonewts are so weird because they are simultaneously dreaming and fully awake. The idea may not hold water nowadays though.

The dream magicians of the East Isles probably do have an opinion about Kralorela and draconic stuff in general. I guess it's on the line that the Kralorelans do stuff with dreams, but that they aren't aware that that's what they are doing. They are thus not quite in control, playing with fire...
