Age of the Dragons Plot Summary

What happens in Age of the Dragons from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 1-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Harpooner [Corey Sevier] joins captain [Danny Glover] aboard the armored Pequod, a landbound vessel built to chase dragons across a sunlit, myth-rich realm. The seven-strong crew ostensibly hunts the precious vitriol, a volatile liquid housed inside the fire-breathing winged beasts that powers their world.

Ishmael comes to learn that Ahab’s mission is driven by a deep vendetta against the great white dragon—the colossal creature that scarred him decades ago, left him injured, and claimed his sister’s life. Forced to shelter from the sun due to his burn wounds, Ahab pursues dragons with a relentless, almost fanatical zeal, with a particular emphasis on the white one.
