the eastern passage
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 299
|
East; the Way of the Ancients. Fred began to walk in that direction and
as he did so he tried to remember what he had been taught about dragons.
It begins and ends with an egg. A she-dragon comes heavily out of the night to some watering hole. It drinks, then squats for a while by the pool and lays three eggs, over which it scrapes a low mound of earth and dead scrub. It warbles to itself all the while as it does this. Far to the north, over the mountains, a streak of flame shows for a moment against the stars, where the old male dragon is still asserting it's right to the mating-pool. ~~yep, and the Kingdom is in the north and these be the mountains (even if I am gods know how many fathoms below the surface of them!)~~ Finally Fred looked up from his academic reverie but not before his left foot stepped into a puddle of mucous. "Ah, crud!" he cried out. "Stupid, no-good dragon piss!" "WHO you calling stupid?" asked a deep voice to his right.
