Like that Danny Nereese woman who used her dragons for warfare? I heard about her a while back.

[ He wasn't impressed with what he heard, tbh. Also, he sucks at remembering complex names on the fly. ]

Maybe being a king just spoiled him, I get the feeling it might do that. Viking warriors gain great honour when they die in battle, some of the tales are incredible, but you wouldn't want them for a king if they survived.
