Excuse me, WHAT?!?!
Also, the only formation not under the command of a woman is Our Hero's? Hmph. Harcourt is young, eh? Well, maybe someone ought to've been more conscientious in preparing her for command, eh? She's a couple years past 16 (when she went to a concert). Kids go to the arial corps at 7… that makes at least 9 years that the officers knew it was a good chance she'd be in command of a formation. Not enough time to start preparing her? hmph!
Oh yeah, and the ( spoilerdragon ). Good job, there.
That's not even getting into the small matter of the dragons' choice. They're sentient beings being used as warhorses. You can't have that in a story and not deal with it.
*sigh*
