I find it interesting that Kalameet, supposed to be the last Ancient Dragon, only has one set of wings and is noticably different in form from other dragons. Seath, the Everlasting Dragons form the intro, and the Stone Dragon seem to have a common trait: they sit up straight. Allow me to explain the significance of this. If we look at Kalameet, we can see that he has four legs and cannot sit like the Everlasting dragons or Seath can. This points out another point: the ED's, Seath, and Stone Dragon all have "hands". If you think about it, we never actually see any Everlasting Dragons with legs, just their front claws, which are in fact hands as you can clearly notice the opposable thumb joints. Seath even shows this in the opening intro when he grabs and crushes something in his hand. I'm not sure if this shows a distinction between Everlasting Dragons and Ancient Dragons, as items related to the Stone Dragon do infact refer to him as ancient, but I find it odd that somewhere along the line dragons would go from four-winged creatures that sat up right, had opposable thumbs, and possibly no legs, into two-winged creatures with four legs and possibly no opposable thumbs.
