I can't understand that schizophrenic dragon cult in Skyrim. Dragons are by far the biggest menace whom everyone is panically afraid of, and yet the jarl's castle in Hviterun is called Dragonsreach and various other places are named after dragons and many Skyrim players' forum posts make it sound like it's cool.
That's crazy. It's comparable to Russians renaming Moscow into Napoleongrad in order to celebrate their glorious victory in 1812, or the British honoring their WW2 heroes with a Hitler Medal .
Creatures that burn down villages aren't cool or fun or admirable in any way.
