Okay, I think you need to slow down. Everything just seems to happen out of nowhere. Build the world up a bit more first.
And I have to wonder, why would dragons even use equipment? They've got scales that can withstand molten lava. Claws, fangs and fire for weapons. Why do they need anything else?
7330742 I'm guessing from your profile pic you are extremely fond of dragons, to be exact you are quite probably are a dragonologist as in draws them studies them etc. Would I be correct?
Thank you for the feedback, the next chapter is much slower than this one. I wanted the sudden start to the story, to bring interest to the story by leaving blanks.
Though now that I explained what I tried to do, what do you think I should if I were to rewrite this chapter emphasize on?
PS: I made the dragons use Equipment as it would make it a more interesting story in future fight scenes. If I left them with their default way of fighting all I could really say, was that they swiped and blew fire at each other. Whereas with a sword and armor I can describe how the armor or weapons were damaged in a fight, emphasizing power levels easier. That would be like not giving ponies a sword or armor cause they are literally horses. Horses cannot talk or use magic. This is a fantasy Novel, so it does not have to follow logic.
7330866 Err, well I'd certainly like to, but unfortunately I really don't see how anyone is supposed to study a mythological creature. However yes, I am a big fan of them.
I guess if you wanna draw viewers in by having a really fast-paced start, that's fine, but at this speed, it kind of just feels like a wall of text. The best stories immerse the reader in them. Describe how the characters are talking, how they feel, etc.
If you wanna make dragons use equipment then you can, but I guess the bigger problem for me is that from the way it's written here, they'd be completely helpless without it. As in, when Spike was disarmed in this chapter he kinda just acted like he'd already lost, where realistically that would have minimal affect on his ability to fight. Take Twilight for example, she practically never puts on any kind of armour or uses any weapons, but helpless is far from a word you'd describe her in that state.
7330913 you have a point. So you would say that what I lack is spike actually using his claws and teeth, and dragons breath for example, and in terms of story, it lacks feeling.
I'm sorry if I annoy you, I'm just trying to narrow down the problems. As I don't have a proofreader yet, but I offer the position to you if you're interested.
7330939 Kind of. It's more along the lines of implying he doesn't even have them in the first place. Nowhere in the narrative did Spike even consider those options, and that kinda makes him look like an idiot.
If you want me to proofread I guess I'd be happy to. Just don't take everything I say at face value though. Everything I say is a suggestion, nothing more.
7330944 it's all good, I won't I only use suggestions that appeal to the story plot I have.
