Dragons and Mantises

There weren’t always dragons in the valley. In fact, they’ve only started spending time there in the past couple of centuries. I miss the valley, especially the music of their voices. Did you know they have four voice boxes? One in either nostril, the usual one in the throat, and one where the nostrils join the windpipe. Maybe I should move back to the valley, although such a journey might not be good for someone of my age.
