decides to seek the dragon in its lair, and prepare to attack the sleeping beast only to be ambushed themselves by a band of dark elves. Naga continues to fight despite being shot with several arrows until she succumbs to the fatal wounds. The Princess and her accompaniment of warriors fend off the elves in time to turn their attention to the awoken dragon. Lord Artemir attempts a valiant charge only to be consumed in a gout of flame, perishing. The wand given to Alora transforms into a spear, and the Princess pierces the dragon's heart. As the dragon dies, Freyja collapses and confides in her dying breath that Alora was her daughter. Reinforcements of dark elves arrive but concede victory and allegiance to the Princess as she brandishes the spear aloft in triumph. Though the dragon is defeated and the war with the dark elves is brought to an end, the group of adventurers gathers for the bittersweet funeral of their fallen comrades. The king dies during Princess Alora's return journey, but she ascends to rule the kingdom with Sir Cador at her side.

Release and reception Dragon was released direct to DVD on December 12, 2006. Like many other films produced by The Asylum, Dragon has been dubbed a "mockbuster" by critics, many drawing a parallel between the release of Dragon and the film adaptation of Eragon. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 38% score, meaning rotten with viewer reviews that stated things like "Utter rubbish! epic action adventure, this film should be taken from the shelves under the trades descriptions act for misrepresentation." Christopher Armstead of Film Critics United gave Dragon a positive review, opining that the CGI was almost passable despite some rough spots. He described the film's fight sequences as "some of the worst staging I’d ever seen as it looked like the actors were simply trying not to get hurt as opposed to actually fighting each other." Armstead stated that the film was enjoyable in comparison to others by
