╰───►THERE were dragons, when I was a boy. There were great, grim, sky dragons that nested on the cliff-tops like gigantic, scary birds. Little brown, scuttly dragons that hunted down the mice and rats in well-organised packs. Preposterously huge sea dragons that were twenty times as big as the big blue whale. Some say that the dragons retreated back into the seas leaving not a bone, nor a fang, for men to remember them by. Others say they were nothing but folktales to begin with. I'm okay with that. Legends say that when the ground quakes or lava spews from the earth, it's the dragons letting us know that they're still here, waiting for us to figure out how to get along. Yes, the world believes that the dragons are gone, if they ever existed at all, but we Berkians? We know otherwise. And we'll guard the secret, until the time comes when dragons can return in peace.
