>>50004064That's usually how it goes, yes. The humans can only do so much, their bravery and strength can only go so far against Magic (which dragons are usually heavily associated with, in fairy stories). So to even the playing field, the fairy folk help the brave human risking his life as a squishy meat-bag by giving him magic items to kill the dragon, either magic armour to protect him as the dragon is susceptible to regular human-made steel or a sword imbued with Fairy magic in the cases where mere metal alone won't end the Dragons reign of terror.
That's always been how it goes, human proves he's noble/worthy enough for the fairy folk to help him kill the dragon where many valiant men failed. %00 years later, we get autistics crying because their big, scawy dwagon gets cold-cock raped by pink, cute fluffy things.
