Nidhogg is Nidhogg and would probably smash his way through the Shroud like he would literally anywhere else, but he's not exactly possessed of much sense anymore.
Midgardsormr I feel could probably go either way; I would imagine he is aware of the Elementals and their position, and I doubt he'd ever antagonize them without a deliberate reason. But I'd wager if he did come up with a reason he wouldn't hesitate to follow through.
My original post was created moreso with the lesser wyrms in mind, though; the Svaras, Aiatars, and Isgebinds. Like, what happens when they stumble in wounded and on the run, crushing flora and devouring fauna in an endeavor to escape and recover? Or what if a dragon wanted to create a breeding/hunting ground away from Abalathia's Spine (much like Aiatar did in La Noscea)? Stuff like that.
A bit of a tangent, but now that I think about it, I'm also curious as to the Elementals' position on invasive species of flora.
I believe the lesser wyrms are characterized as having far less intelligence as compared to the great wyrms. Â If they were foolish enough to run to the Shroud for cover, I doubt the Elementals would be okay with it. Â After all, they'd be bringing their war to a neutral third party (I very much doubt the Elementals care overmuch for the wars of mortals, especially given the history of the War of the Magi).
