With nothing else left to do, Lex turned and looked towards the dragon. Truthfully speaking, involving dragons into his plans was a risky move on his part. Unfortunately, it was necessary. When facing an enormous organization that even the Henali struggled with, Lex wanted each and every asset he could gain, and dragons were one of the most powerful races in existence.
If he could harvest their power somehow, it would go a long way towards fighting off Sanguis Pluvia. Unfortunately, asking nicely was not going to work, and no matter how irredeemably evil and corrupt Jeffrey was, he was not stupid enough to provoke the dragon race. It would have been nice if Lex found evidence of him trying to clone dragons or something, but Lex did not believe there was any entity stupid enough in the universe to try something as provocative as that.
