They are believed to go through an endless cycle of creation and destruction. Each has its fair share of worshipers, mainly just people who hope revering the gods will help protect them from natural disasters.

The myths speak not of the creation of these first three dragons, starting long into their lives. The three are referred to as brothers. The myths say that in ancient times these three dragons existed, Pyninra and Gulnide both had positions of great power in the world and constantly opposed each other until Ulnur approached them to unite with him under a certain cause. The three worked together to gain great power and then traveled beyond the reaches of the sky to complete an unknown task. They returned long after and with their great powers worked together to create the dragon races before leaving again and never returning. Many believe the three can now be seen in a certain star formation in the night sky.
