Previously, when the Creation Dragon Empire was still starting out, a lot of Destruction Dragons had been saved by the lions and prevented from being pushed to near extinction.
The lions obviously did not do this out of their good nature, they didn't even have a collective good nature.

The Dragons, whether Destruction or Creation, were very valuable. Equally as valuable as the wolves and hyenas.
If they had these dragons as vassals right from the start, a lot of things would have been easier.
Unfortunately, even during the time of Ibadon, getting Destruction Dragons as vassals was inviting trouble and it was usually not worth having a few hundred giant winged lizards bowing solemnly while still under the pressure of an army from Draconic Heaven.
But now, things are different.
