   for centuries, arab traders had fooled europeans into thinking cinnamon came from a rare, vicious and fearsome cinnamon bird.
   
   the belief was so prevalent that the mythical cinnamon bird shows up in the writings of Herodotus and Aristotle, all the way into medieval european manuscripts where it’s illustrated in all its fierce, cinnamony glory

     @get @vitalis Now, as we just killed the cinnamon bird, let's talk about the dragons. Here are few examples how they were illustrated in medieval times. If you come and tell me that it is not some furry cat with bird wings, then I might need some tattoo mods. :02_laugh:
