It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents—except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness.

I am a sick man... I am a spiteful man. I am an unpleasant man. I think my liver is diseased. However, I don't know beans about my disease, and I am not sure what is bothering me. I don't treat it and never have, though I respect medicine and doctors. Besides, I am extremely superstitious, let's say sufficiently so to respect medicine. (I am educated enough not to be superstitious, but I am.) No, I refuse to treat it out of spite. You probably will not understand that. Well, but I understand it. Of course I can't explain to you just whom I am annoying in this case by my spite. I am perfectly well aware that I cannot "get even" with the doctors by not consulting them. I know better than anyone that I thereby injure only myself and no one else. But still, if I don't treat it, its is out of spite. My liver is bad, well then-- let it get even worse!

At magic hour, when the sun has gone but the light has not, armies of flying foxes unhinge themselves from the Banyan trees in the old graveyard and drift across the city like smoke. When the bats leave, the crows come home. Not all the din of their homecoming fills the silence left by the sparrows that have gone missing, and the old white-backed vultures, custodians of the dead for more than a hundred million years, that have been wiped out. The vultures died of diclofenac poisoning. Diclofenac, cow-aspirin, given to cattle as a muscle relaxant, to ease pain and increase the production of milk, works – worked – like nerve gas on white-backed vultures. Each chemically relaxed, milk-producing cow or buffalo that died became poisoned vulture-bait. As cattle turned into better dairy machines, as the city ate more ice cream, butterscotch-crunch, nutty-buddy and chocolate-chip, as it drank more mango milkshake, vultures’ necks began to droop as though they were tired and simply couldn’t stay awake. Silver beards of saliva dripped from their beaks, and one by one they tumbled off their branches, dead.
Not many noticed the passing of the friendly old birds. There was so much else to look forward to. And then the dragons arrived.

Howard Roark laughed. He stood naked at the edge of a cliff, as an ancient red dragon emerged from the horizon. The lake lay far below him, and the dragon's presence seemed to set the air ablaze. A frozen explosion of granite burst in flight to the sky over motionless water. The water seemed immovable, the stone -- flowing, and the dragon -- an eternal force. The stone had the stillness of one brief moment in battle when thrust meets thrust and the currents are held in a pause more dynamic than motion. The dragon's scales glowed, wet with sunrays, and the stone shone with the fiery reflection of the magnificent beast.

The wind roared around him, carrying the scent of the dragon's sulfuric breath. Roark stared at the creature, unafraid, feeling a strange kinship with its unyielding spirit. The landscape before him seemed to blend the elements of stone, water, and fire, creating a harmony that resonated with his own essence. The dragon hovered in place, its enormous wings outstretched, casting a shadow that danced upon the granite below. As the currents of air shifted, the dragon's crimson eyes met Roark's, and a spark of understanding passed between them, as if they were two entities forged from the same untamable fire.

SOCRATES: My dear Glaucon, have you ever considered the wondrous nature of dragons and the extent of their magnificence?

GLAUCON: Indeed, Socrates, I have heard tales of these mythical beasts but have never had the fortune to witness their prowess firsthand. Pray tell, what insights do you have on the subject?

SOCRATES: Let us examine the dragon, a creature of immense power and wisdom, which seems to defy our very understanding of the natural world. Consider, for a moment, their extraordinary abilities. They possess the gift of flight, their wings carrying them to heights unreachable by man. Is this not a quality we may admire?

GLAUCON: Indeed, Socrates, it is a gift to be envied.

SOCRATES: Furthermore, these creatures wield the power of fire, breathing flames that can lay waste to entire cities or forge the mightiest of metals. Is there not something awe-inspiring in the mastery of such an element?

GLAUCON: Yes, Socrates, it is a power unmatched by any mortal.

SOCRATES: Now, Glaucon, let us not overlook their intellect. Dragons possess a wisdom far surpassing that of any ordinary beast. They are often portrayed as cunning and knowledgeable, capable of speech and even riddles. Would you not agree that this combination of wisdom and power embodies a sense of greatness?

GLAUCON: Indeed, Socrates, it seems that dragons are the pinnacle of what one might consider majestic and mighty.

SOCRATES: And so, my dear Glaucon, in contemplating the nature of dragons, we may find inspiration to strive for wisdom and power, for they symbolize the highest achievements of greatness that we, as humans, may aspire to. Can we not learn from these noble creatures and seek to cultivate within ourselves the qualities that make them so awe-inspiring and, dare I say, badass?

That branch of the Lake of Como, which turns toward the south between two unbroken chains of mountains, presenting to the eye a succession of bays and gulfs, formed by their jutting and retiring ridges, suddenly contracts itself between a headland to the right and an extended sloping bank on the left, and assumes the flow and appearance of a river: and then the dragons arrive.

No one would have believed, in the last years of the nineteenth century, that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own ; that as men busied themselves about their affairs they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.
