Dragons (According to Shyvana's New Lore)

Firstly, just want to say I absolutely LOVE the new Demacian lore, especially Shyvana's. I have a few questions though. It is said in her bio that female dragons pass on their elemental rune hearts to their daughters, either being air, earth, fire or water runes (this is nice because it actually explains why we have four elemental dragons in Summoner's Rift). However, does this mean that the sexual dimorphism for Dragons is that the females are elemental and the males aren't? If so, that's really cool, and does that technically mean that the four elemental dragons on summoner's rift are female, and the Elder Dragon is a male?

Interesting part about Yvva being an infernal drake... Infernal drakes in the game have four legs and two wings, while Shyvana's dragon form has only two legs and two wings. So even in dragon form, Shyvana is an abomination to dragon-kind.

I liked it too.

It's a little odd at first, but at least it's better than trying to explain human-dragon mating practices.

I always thought it was the male that was human

You'd be surprised at what can fit.

My question is this:

Is a Dragon's egg fertalize before or after it's laid? Because some fish eggs are fertilized after.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case for Shyvana, otherwise she literally has two daddies, and that would spook a lot of people regardless of species.

The elder dragon is not a common male dragon for sure: female dragons are probably much larger and fiercer than males, considering that Yvva easily killed her old mate. Anyways, the elder dragon could have reached that considerable size by growing throughout his/her entire life, or the magic that empowers him/her is special and rare.

Or the elder drake is simply an especially powerful male draon,while Shyvanas father was simply average(or below average)

from the lore i get that Shyvana was going to be a normal fire dragon ,from both parents that are dragons , but what made her have a human form is the mage that attempted to steal the power within the shyvana's egg but instead he infused some humanoid magic . and her mother is a fire dragon and tried to kill which she couldn't since her father ran away with her
