Say more please "More". Are you more referencing the massage of the 'v' vs 'f' or more lore stuff ? eg a semicolon after the first the. Us Dragons are the; 'live at a party!' (kind.) As for Dragons being life itself as Tiamat or somesuch, life craving solitude then perhaps means the cyclic nature of existance; eg; breathe in, rest, breathe out, rest.

Heh. The mediumistic massage. What draws me up short is the correlation between "dragon" imagery and the "modern life is rubbish" sentiment flickering around the margins of this thread. It's a chord I haven't heard in awhile and it feeds into the idea of a "double dip recession." >As for Dragons being life itself as Tiamat or somesuch, life craving >solitude then perhaps means the cyclic nature of existance; >eg; breathe in, rest, breathe out, rest. Naturally the dragon exhales all the time. It's us who perceive it as "recession" if not fire.

That is disputed by some german chemist that went there and got imprisoned for publishing scientific results. >>Are you more referencing the massage of the 'v' vs 'f' or more lore stuff >>? > > Heh.

Then again, i do indeed kinda found it a nice challenge to adopt a viewpoint of 'modern life is rubbish'.
