I bet there are two competing forces, perhaps two Covens of Hags, Fey Lords, land spirits or something along those lines who are playing the Bracken/Blackwood feud as a game, with the dead on either side being the manner in which they keep score.
Player One: "Haha, I just got another Catelyn! Those are worth three points!"

Player Two: "She isn't even dead yet."

P1: "It's only a matter of time now."

P2: "I play my Dragon card."

If only we could be so lucky. Its would be so much easier to deal with a handful of errant faeries by being a combination of draconic and displeased in their general direction. Human stupidity, however, is not so easily eliminated.
 
The Dragon could flee.
Let's say worst case, it's a Wyrm or older, then a Miracle to port himself
There are ways for us to guarantee beating it on Initiative, and from there Timestop = roflstomp.
Preparation decides the field, as far as I get the difficulty of the encounter.

And we can have all the preparation we may want.

Just so it's a bit clearer why I am willing to try and have the Red Dragon Orb eaten now:
Cost of Harvesting Venom revealed: CR 25 Sacrifice
Yes, Yss venom is something that could potentially kill a divine avatar and harm the god behind it.
We can use this sort of tool.
I don't know when it might come in handy, but then again, none of us do - having it on hand just in case sooner rather than later seems a good idea.

And the Ancient Red really doesn't seem like much of a problem with proper preparation. Even if he breaks out and we use Yss - we would lose nothing but an objectively useless Orb.

And we can have all the preparation we may want.

The feud could even be part of a centuries long murder ritual which used the deaths of members of both families to keep a supernatural being powered up and awake during the waning of magic. :o
