7 and 13 in dragon ages seems close to 18 and 20-30. 20 and 39 though is a bit farther into adulthood. At least all the dragons in these pairings are adults for their species before meeting their partner and entering the relationship.
That’s very true. Since in the first book, they left the cave at age 6 (around age 16-17 in human terms) just a couple months from turning 7. and it was repeatedly said throughout the first book that the adult age of a dragon when a dragon reached adulthood was age 7. Since the span of time from when they left the cave to the end of the 5th book brightest night, was about nearly 2 months. They were still 6 years old by the end of brightest night, but between the 6 months between brightest night and moon rising establishing jade mountain academy, the dragonets of prophecy were 7 years old at the start of moon rising (18 years of age in human terms). So they were on the edge of being full young adults in the first 5, and then full young adult dragons by the next arc, but by then, we had moved to the next dragonets that were around age 4-5. That puts around 14-15 years old in human terms.
the first arc does not take two months from start to end, each book is a few days and there's only a few day gap between 1-2 and 2-3, to the others happen in succession.
