People considered dragons to be magical creatures in ASOIAF (and their existence linked with the power of magic), but I don't see why. Why are they considered magical? Aren't they just another creature that exists in this world?
Are direwolves also considered magical? What about other creatures, like unicorns or manticores? What makes a creature magical? They can breathe fire, sure, but so can the Wyrms in the Fourteen Fires, and people don't seem to link them to magic.
Dragons live and bleed and breed and die just like all other creatures, there doesn't seem to be anything magical about them.
