Lore:Dragonfly

Dragonflies, sometimes called Dovah-Flies, are small flying insects commonly found in southern Skyrim and around bodies of water in the Azura's Coast, Bitter Coast, and West Gash regions of Vvardenfell. A number of varieties exist, such as the Blue and Orange Dartwings, white Regal Dovah-Flies, and a number of mechanical Fabricant variants from the Clockwork City. It is unknown whether the fly variants are different breeds or merely color variations. Dartwings are prized for their use in alchemy. If hand-raised from larval form, they can become devoted companion, and a common children's sport in Vvardenfell called "dodge-dovah" involves dragonflies.

Dragonflies have also inspired jewellers to make brooches into the shape of them, and the creation of Dovah-Fly swatters in the Clockwork City.
