Re: Tale From the Dragon's Keep


Sorry Bob but the saga continues and must be told. I
beg a thousand pardons from those unable to
distinguish fact from fantasy but every thing I write
is absolutely true.  

The 846 Calai lurking in my rear patch defys all prior
concepts of organic life on this planet.  Vague
feelings of dread creep over me when I go near it.  I
think it lets me pass unharmed because it knows I am
it's obedient servant and will feed it.  A mole got
too close the other day and didn't leave alive - the
dragon got him...  I swear this is true.

Luckily the rear patch is fenced so the children are
safe.
