Mirror Lake
There weren't always dragons in the valley. Papa once kept Sparkulies in that part of the kingdom too. These were translucent lizard-like beasts which grew almost as big as the juvenile dragons. They had roamed freely and proudly here, pacing about with their knobbly clawed feet in search of food. With their barrelled torsos revealing their pink and mustard coloured innards, they would have been quite terrifying if it weren't for their comical, giant blue splayed ears that waved like sea anenome. But once they got a taste for the flowering Eonapod, with its precious and poisonous petals, they had all died out by the end of the season. It was a shame really. Greed. The downfall of so many creatures in Dezmery.
