Ciril was expelled from the dragon knight guild for wanting to connect with dragons on an emotional level, while the guild and society viewed dragons as mere tools. Even after expulsion, Ciril didn't change his mind. Using dragons as tools might be efficient in the short term, but in the long run, Ciril's approach of emotional connection proved superior. When the guild finally realized this, they apologized, but it was too late. Ciril, along with the dragons who had grown to love him like family, had already risen to the top.
