Okay. I got frustrated trying to make it work, so aggroed it and killed it. Then out of spite, I took the picture. It counted.

Description
Well, now that you've cut your teeth on some starter shots, how about we move onto something a little spicier? I spotted a gorgeous proto-drake flying around the area behind us. Beautiful horns, scales crackling with electricity... Probably the work of the Primalists, no doubt, but art is art! See if you can get a picture of the proto-drake and some of its eggs. You might have to climb up a bit to get a good shot!
