Here there be a dragon bits question
I've been trying to remember details of the lore that I've read over the years dealing with dragon parts and their magical qualities or healing properties. I would love to be reminded of stories like the Greek legend of Cadmus sowing the teeth of a dragon which sprouted into an army. I know that dragon's blood is often mentioned, but I don't remember what it is supposed to do! What about the liver? The spleen? The heart? I know I've read about all of these things but I can't remember where!
Thanks for your help,
Alina

thank you!
Thanks Gormghlaith! I did a google search with different combinations of search terms and for some reason I couldn't find anything useful. Your links are great! I really appreciate your help.

Re: thank you!
I'm glad it was the sort of thing you were looking for (I got frustrated during the google search and typed in 'uses of dragon body parts'- clumsy, but that's how i found it!)
