This Species is Bonkers in the Head

The entire situation did raise a lot of red flags.

For starters, there were many reasons why an animal would go berserk, but would it forget the fear hardwired into its gene, which was handed down from generations to generations? That's almost no chance of that ever happening.

The 'safe zones' that the dragon knights had marked weren't always patrolled 24/7. The real reason why these territories were respected was mainly because the wild animals could sense draconian aura enveloping the safe zones, and the natural tendency of animals to steer away from other beasts' territory.

No matter how illogical an animal becomes when it goes crazy, it still wouldn't be foolish enough to trespass a territory enveloped by a heavy draconian aura—until now.
