The earth had rumbled for several days, which wasn’t unusual in those days.
When everything settled down, and we had the chance to get out and survey the damage it was then the dragon was discovered.
There had been a rift in the rock formations on what was known as Dragon Mountain, and to our surprise, there was the fossilised head of the dragon revealed for the first time.
It had been legend that the mountain had contained dragons in past years, but we all thought it nothing more than a myth serving our local tourist industry.
But now the head was there, in plain sight and we began to reassess our history.
Immediately moves were made to preserve the area, and the tourist operators sought ways to profit from the revelation.
It was interesting though as time went by to note that if you stepped too close to the dragon’s head there came an ominous rumble from within the mountain.

Nice….. think I’d keep my distance, I might get a nasty nip if the rock shifted again!
It could be worrying that is for sure.
lol
I like the dragon head.
It seemed to jump out at me.
Great imagination
It does rather look like a dragon’s head. 🙂
Thanks so much Alethea

The extremes folks will go to in order to rejuvenate a flagging tourism industry. 🙂
You gotta wonder don’t you?
I’m a cynic. and back in the day, a member of our town’s Tourism Assembly.
Maybe we’d do better if the dragon woke 😉
Yes well that would give us something to speculate about .
We might have to wake up too…
I really like his one. Perfect for the photo.
Thanks, seemed to be obvious to me.
I do believe I can see a foot with claws, too. 🙂
yes I think you are right.

Maybe there is more to come from the dragon within.
Good suggestion, I shall think on it.
