Fascinating.

I read that message from my email. I'm thinking.... how in heck did she guess that, from two Asian looking figures with serpent bodies ...... What kind of game is this???
Then after I checked back in I saw LT has been replying to the earlier pic
Funny.

Pretty cool. Mythology didn't even occur to me. I was looking for Chinese fertility symbols..... something about the intertwined serpent tails

while they look like serpent tails they are actually representation of the river yangtze
