No living comprehends the Dragon's mission in game... All belive he is an incredibly smart beast... Now this is speculation but what was grigori doing while you were slaying griffins and stuff((your character probably fought monsters for a few months before finally battling the dragon(for the sake of story- not your true night and day system)) He was probably FSU'in all over the world just to prepare himself for the battle. I doubt he just took a nap- then nobody would fear him(no one would even care he is napping on a mountain that is far from civilization) just speculation on my part... Dragon is the harbinger of chaos(and order if you think about it) trying to temper the will of a special warrior. He only exists to create reasons for the arisen to want to fight him.(steals your girlfriend, destroys your town a lil, eats a few grandmas, attacks nearby cities?, and etc.)
