    What happened on that fateful day may not be what people believed.

    Heck won't be surprised if this "Halone" was actually a Ascian.

    Midgardsormr also mentioned something quite interesting being that he says that it was the Ishgarian's Ancestors that struck first.

    It is possible that the first encounter with the Dragon was not a attack but a attempt to make contact but since the Dragon's ability to communicate with each other is different they failed and this resulted in a misunderstanding that lead to make the Ishgard's ancestors to believe the Dragon was going to attack them.

    Though the question also remains is why Ishgard would attempt to kill anyone who mentions they have manage to make proper communication with Dragons. While it could be their religion's attempt to keep the idea that Dragons are mindless animals there is most likely another factor controlling this part.

    The person I was responding to said they were suspicious of Ishgard for never providing a reason for fighting the dragons. I just posted the reason we're told in game.

    Ishgard has never denied that dragons are intelligent; they just maintain that dragons are evil. And the reason that they would respond negatively to someone claiming to have had a conversation with a dragon is that they know dragons can essentially "temper" people much like primals, and believe that coming into too intimate contact (touching their scales, looking into their eyes etc.) can cause someone to become brainwashed.
