Pride
Is it
always true that pride must come before a fall? If a beautiful dragon is proud
of his own reflection, where’s the harm?
Greek mythology tells us the story of Narcissus, a beautiful youth who fell in love with his own reflection in a pool and pined away as a result.
Beneath the water there is a dark reminder of the fate that awaits all dragons, perhaps this handsome fellow should cast his admiring glances but not tarry too long in that occupation lest he should fall under the spell of his own beauty.
The above is from the certificate and was written by Andrew Bill

OTHER INFORMATION |
When Mouldart (the company who made them) went into liquidation in 2007 it was discovered that the moulds and masters were in a very poor condition so production with a new company has been put on hold until new moulds and masters have been made. |
