A black and grey dragon coiled around a sword with runic circle border.

This tattoo features a detailed, black and gray illustration of a fierce dragon coiled around a sword. The dragon has an aggressive expression with sharp teeth, a long, pointed tongue, and prominent horns on its head. Its wings are spread wide, with visible veins and a slightly tattered appearance. The dragon's body is covered in textured scales, and its claws grip the sword tightly. The sword is positioned vertically, with the dragon's body wrapping around it, and the blade extending downward. Surrounding the dragon and sword is a circular border inscribed with runic or ancient script, adding a mystical and arcane element to the design. The overall style is bold with strong line work, shading to create depth, and a dark, intense aesthetic.
