Vortigern
Welsh · mortal · post roman · Recorded classification
The thing he is most famous for — inviting the Saxons in, and the tower that will not stand until the two dragons under it are released — is on this record only as 'the dragon prophecy', because that is how the treatment consulted names it. The dragons are not ingested: the treatment names a prophecy and not two beings. Dinas Emrys is a place.
