In Hinduism and Buddhism, Titiksha is the ability to endure hardships arising from unfavorable karma. Therefore, this is the name of the Baby Dragon, which rules the slugs.

Titiksha is patient and persistent in achieving her goal: to find and devour the most ripe ones. It is impossible to defeat her: the tastier and richer the harvest, the stronger she is. Everything forgotten, unnoticed, fallen is a tribute to Titiksha. And she will always take her!

Melusine is named after the fairy Melusine, who married a king, bore him children and helped him gain lands and power. And she left him not even when he, contrary to her request, began to peep – and found out that she was a half-snake (cursed by her mother for taking revenge on her father). She left her husband when he began to reproach her with the snake essence in front of the whole court. Then she turned into a dragon and flew away forever, because after the betrayal of the one she loved, there was no more human in her…

I had other plans for the spring Baby Dragon. I thought about Persephone, who returns to her mother Demeter – but now the wife of Hades and the arbiter of justice Persephone-Praxidike are more appropriate.

Iris-Wisteria is a surname. And she will reveal her name only to the one who chooses her and with whom she will live.

I can’t say for sure what her origin story was. Perhaps one day the iris got confused about who he wants to become more – and turned into a drakogem. Or the Baby Dragon couldn’t choose between a flower and a jewel. Or maybe this is how treasures come to life, dreaming of blooming and flying…

A year and a half ago, in August 2020, I started making a Baby Dragon that I couldn’t help but do. It happened.

Zoryana appeared in a similar way.

And I didn’t even know how to describe her. Therefore, I asked for help from my Ukrainian friends. The one by Katerina Gunko from Odessa was the best fit.

As a ray of light breaks down into all the colors of the rainbow, flowers and herbs grow out of white snow.

Spring is getting closer, it can’t be stopped.

Laverna dwells under bridges and in wells at crossroads. It feeds on tadpoles, dragonfly larvae and other water fines. But most of all, she loves the treats that she managed to steal from the travelers’ bags.

If you, sitting down to rest and get drunk, notice how a spotted Baby Dragon crawls towards your luggage, pretend that you did not see anything. And then, when she steals what she liked, “discover” the loss. And start lamenting loudly that you were so cleverly robbed! In return for what was lost, a satisfied Laverne will reward you with great luck in trading affairs.

When Athena flew to Minsk to her mistress, at first she lived in Amanita‘s house. That’s how they met. But they didn’t have a chance to meet each other on my shelves: Black Amanita was completed just a year ago, in mid-January, and immediately went to Belarus – six months before the appearance of Athena…

Asha really wanted to be born first this year. A very capricious Baby Dragon and rather ruthless: she cut all my fingers with her horns. I shouldn’t have admitted that suede horns are not very showy! They are spectacular, but challenging.

Well, if 2022 would be the same, I don’t mind: the result which is worth the effort.
