This is 110 words long, we can't use this vote because it has to be less than 100 words, remember?
Ah thanks. I didn't bother to check cause it seemed close enough when I eyeballed it.

[X] Whitebeard's Letter: Through elvish contacts, we know that some elves of Tor Vernath are asking for Bel'Shannar's assistance, putting Malekith and his allies under time pressure. The Mages Malekith visited were suppressed by Bel'Shannar, since he could not ally with them and do not have much incentive to care about magical backlash to the people living here - only that their patron succeeds and spites Bel'Shannar and that the Waystone network in the Far North is not totally destroyed. Prince Gimli is friends with Prince Laequalys of Tor Vernath and the elf and his own mages may have a useful additional perspective.
Apologies tagging everyone like this, had to change the Whitebeard letter very slightly to fit in the word count and ended up removing a few words.

We aren't required to fit everything into the combo concept. As is your entire dragon with all the comboing going exactly as planned would probably turn into a more effective combatant if the claw was replaced with one that had a simple 3×Fire engraved to add reliable AoE and everyone's go-to element for purging the esoteric.
Though that new(?) Weapon-MValaya on the sheet looks pretty interesting. Claws aren't strictly axes, but fairly close if you squint, and some 'The wielders's grasp cares not for magic or trickery'-combo seems reachable and close to the overall big savage dragon theme. It's not yet known to Snorri, but seems like something that could pop up in any random trade he encounters.
So one of the design goals I had for this was it to have a five piece equipment Set, and a six piece Set between its Body and Equipment as a stretch goal. No one is really going to get me to budge on this design goal or the others, since they are fundamental to the concept of the piece.
(The other two were It's A Kaiju, and Dragon shaped with the ability to fly)
The Armor, which is using very similar runes to Our Ashstorm is our AoE and chaff clear. If Weapon Valaya goes on Axes, it won't work for the Dragon - Runic Forms aren't flexible enough for it to also be used on claws if it specifies a weapon type. And waiting for a random trade is unappealing.
Now we might be able to go somewhere with Currents Spellburning and Spellbreaking, or some other Master Rune like the Albion Sword rune + those 2. That *might* work and its an option I'm keeping open.
