Nicht nur die Familie Dalton, auch die Lindwurm-Community, verbindet den 1869 von Colonel James A. Coffey als Handelsposten gegründeten Ort mit unschönen Assoziationen, da auch der erste Drache der Neuzeit bei Coffeyville getötet wurde.
"It was in a wheat field just south of Coffeyville, Kansas. It was late November. It's a month of mist. And we were caught in the open. The sun was setting behind us. There was nowhere to run. Twice it came in on us, and twice it missed the heart of us. And that's when I had an epiphany. You see, they have great vision...in the day. And they have even better vision at night. But in the failing light, they can't focus. Magic hour." - Van Zan in "Reign Of Fire"
