A finer definition of 'love', than ever I've seen, in a long time.


Hats off to the fine work by the University of Leicester.

My guess is that they died maybe when engaged, so couldn't be buried together in consecrated ground. Either that or as it might have been smack bang in the era of plague, that they died, were married, and room couldn't be found for them in the church yard, so an ancient traditional burial ground known to the locals was chosen. However it also could be a mixture of both of these. 
What a handsome figure of a dragon. No wonder I fall madly in love with the Alani Dragon now, the avatar, it's a gorgeous dragon picture.
