    But.

    I just realized, while he is not calling Faunehm his mother, he is calling Vedrfolnir his father.
    So there's a 50/50 chance that one of them produced him through a biological way.
    Orn Khai came into being after Faunehm left. The reason he was searching for her, was half because he hated seeing his father sad, the other was because his name is a constant reminder of his father's feelings and wanted to meet the dragon responsible. In fact, Orn Khai came into existence BECAUSE Faunehm left, so in that way you could consider her his mother, but besides that, there is (In my opinion) little evidence for her being his biological mother.

    So if I am understanding correctly, while we know for sure dragons can and do asexually reproduce, it appears it is still unknown/ambiguous/undefined if dragons can also reproduce through sexual reproduction as well (like how some real world animals/organisms can reproduce both asexually and sexually)?

    (reviving this thread to see if any new information/inputs on the topic have come up since then)
