I, personally, like it. It makes sense for the Dragon to be an incarnation of the Serpent. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 09/02/2011 11:39:28 PM
The depiction of the Dragon as a wingless one adds some credence to this idea.

That actually seems cosmically plausible - but I really hope this is not the case RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/02/2011 03:27:29 PM 1173 Views
But that has always been the case. I am astounded that it isn't recognized more often... Shannow - 08/02/2011 03:58:24 PM 1050 Views
This. There's a reason one of his archetypes is the Fisher King. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/02/2011 07:00:05 PM 543 Views
The issue is that the Fisher King story is about the Land, not the People RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/02/2011 08:02:24 PM 959 Views
A good example Kieran - 08/02/2011 08:27:44 PM 989 Views
None of this is contradicted by what I have posited entyti - 08/02/2011 09:16:48 PM 896 Views
But the chess analogy is what I'm seeing - the Dragon is necessary in degree not in total. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 09/02/2011 02:42:15 PM 1037 Views
Yes, those are the rules in chess... entyti - 10/02/2011 05:34:25 AM 954 Views
The Fisher King is not a messianic myth. Ghavrel - 08/02/2011 10:07:44 PM 1018 Views
Fisher King title and legends are connected to the Messianic mythos RugbyPlayingAshaman - 09/02/2011 09:47:14 PM 1210 Views
