Following the surprising success of last night’s cockatrice, I was going to draw a basilisk tonight, but I realized that the “little king of the reptiles” is simply a magical snake. An argument could probably be made that it is in fact a legless dragon, with its ability to kill enemies at a distance and its extremely poisonous/venomous nature, but according to old-timey naturalists, it’s a snake.
I mean, he should know; he was there.
Anyhow, the heatwave of the last few days seems to have calmed down with a few thundershowers around here, and I desperately need to catch up on my sleep; waking up several times a night covered in sweat is hardly conducive to a restful state of mind.
