Any idea what a “dragon of twilight” is?

In the twilight of the gods story a type of creature is mentioned: dragons of twilight.

Now this title might just be an exaggeration by the ascended that was reminiscing about his glory days, however he mentions how he and another ascended rode them to the “highest peak of the world” (which I assume is mount Targon).

These beings were never mentioned before and even though the story came out a couple of monts ago, I haven’t seen any discussion about them in the past

Maybe the kind A. Sol is of?

I doubt this. Celestial dragons are rare, and I was under the impression that it took a lot of effort to subjugate just one dragon - and even then, the Aspects' control of him wane as the years go on.

Swain has a kill quote for Aurelion Sol where he says Aurelion may have siblings. Additionally in the Lissandra story it says Cerylda lost her voice when she tried to command the first twilight. The options as I see it are:

Aurelion Sol's less powerful siblings, although I think the idea of him being a semi unique and rare being is way cooler than there being lots of twilight dragons.
Some Zoe familiar she created in the likeness of Aurelion because he loves her so much.
Targon is more than a city of gods, it's a biome with it's own creatures we don't know about yet.
Something to do with Cerylda's voice being lost, although she could have tried to command Aurelion and been punished for it. Additionally, because twilight is an astrological phenomenon, it's possible that the "first" twilight was the original arrival of Targonians to Runeterra and is unrelated to twilight dragons.
Twilight is a cool sounding word Riot likes to throw around.

I would imagine it's some construct created by the Aspect of Twilight.

It has to do something with the aspect

Edgy dragon teenagers.

Or just some random lore that riot left there just to avoid retconning when they want to expand the lore

Might just be referring to how the Aspect of Twilight treats A. Sol.. Or might refer to A. Sol being present and commanded by the Aspect of Twilight at the time, therefore a cultural connotation of the dragon belonging to twilight "Dragon of Twilight" Idk lol xD.
