59 First Kiss Of Disappointment

The primary purpose of a dragon's fire in combat is to incapacitate or eliminate the enemy. 

The intense heat of a dragon can reduce a witches ability to cast spells, and greatly impact on the witches ability to sustain combat.

In addition to its destructive power, a dragon's fire during combat can also be used strategically to create barriers, control the battlefield, or force the enemy into a disadvantageous position.
