Chasing the dragon, most know it as heroin, is an opiate that is an extremely addictive class one drug. Heroin is known as chasing the dragon because, when you first use heroin, you feel euphoria. You keep trying to get more and more of the drug to feel the same feeling you did the first time you used heroin, but it is never the same because your body has created a tolerance for the drug. Therefore, you are chasing a drug that is very destructive and bigger than yourself, just like a dragon. You are chasing after the dragon wherever you can and do whatever you can to get more. We, as Catching Dragons, are a safe-house for drug addicts, more specifically, heroin. Too many deaths come from drug overdoses in Licking County so we have come up with a plan to stop the addiction through a healthy, therapeutic environment by creating a place they can go to seek refuge and help for many loved ones in need.

St. Cyril of Jerusalem once said “The dragon is by the side of the road, watching those who pass. Beware lest he devour you. We go to the father of the souls, but it is necessary to pass by the dragon.” The road in which St. Cyril speaks of in this passage is the path one travels on his or her’s journey to Heaven, and the dragon is referring to the temptation one may submit to on that journey. Temptation is almost always present, but it is up to the individual to either acknowledge the dragon and ‘let him devour you’ or pass by and ignore the dragon. Flannery O’Connor wrote short stories with this quote in mind; she often depicts characters who become side tracked with pride, greed, vanity, etc. creating an encounter with the dragon on their

After I returned from my survival test, the two old people trained me in dragon ways, which took another eight years. Copying the tigers, their stalking kill, and their anger had been a wild, bloodthirsty joy. Tigers are easy to find, but I needed adult wisdom to know dragons. ‘You have to infer the whole dragon from the parts you can see and touch,’ the old people would say. Unlike tigers, dragons are so immense, I would never see one in its entirety. But I could explore the mountains, which are the top of its head. ‘These mountains are also like the tops of other

I walked to it and tried prying it from the ground with my fingers. A twig broke behind me and I jumped and spun around. It was dark now and the only light was from the full moon. I had a bad feeling start to pump through me. I turned and ran trying to evacuate the danger I felt nearby. I ran through brush that looked like claws trying to grab my ankles. And as tree limbs came down snatching at my skin I tripped and fell. I saw a tree nearby that looked welcoming and I tried to use it as cover. Black wings busted through the trees and run started echoing around me in a croaked out a raspy breath.

In the satirical story, Dealing with Dragons, Patricia C. Wrede portrays Cimorene, an extraordinary princess of Linderwall who doesn’t want to be under supervision, as a princess that does not think that the requirements of being a princess apply to her. Cimorene leaves the castle to go live with the dragons of the Mountains of Morning. Cimorene was not justified because if she marries Therandil Linderwall will become a prosperous kingdom.

I stared down at the dragon, while Kheiron floated in place his soft fur rippling as he sang mysterious melodies concerning the place and it’s magic and chanted about the kingdoms secrets. His words worked their way into my mind.

The dragon is first mentioned in the story when the Misfit is talking to the grandmother about his life as a child when he starts describing his father to her. He says “Daddy was a card himself . . . You couldn’t put anything on him. He never got in trouble with the Authorities though. Just had the knack of handling them” (O’Connor 122). This is the first introduction of the dragon. Learning this information is very important because this is when the Misfit first started experiencing violence in his life. Obviously the Misfit was brought up into a world of crime, violence, and avoidance of the police. The Misfit continues to experience violence in his life after his childhood, when he joined the army and marine services. What he experienced

Right." Two meagre hands on his chest and a push sent the man flying from the window, screams coming from his lips as he fell. With a satisfying crunch, his body crumpled into nothing beneath him. "Gladys! Feel free to finish him." An sage coloured dragon swooped down to the ground with a loud and menacing roar. It's crimson wings beat together as it lurched at the inert body beneath it. The dragon showed jagged, ivory teeth protruding from it's snarling mouth ready to devour its

It is an admirable and intelligent creature with some fascinating characteristics, beyond what we are allowed to glimpse in fairy tales and legends. The dragon has often been misunderstood, persecuted and hounded simply because it is different. Like so many other living beings, it has suffered death at the hands of “civilized”

Throughout the short story, it is evident that at times the psychiatrist retreats to his conscious state often. This is shown when the psychiatrist unwittingly sits in Kirk’s chair and looked at his office as if it were his first time there. Unknowingly the psychiatrist had “moved around to the other side of the circle and lowered himself into Kirk’s chair”. This shows his conscious mind making decisions revealing his true feelings, that the psychiatrist deeply relates to Kirk and can easily put himself in Kirk’s shoes.

“We must leave this island before we are caught, please find other dragons of your kind and stay with them we need to get a count of everyone to make sure that you all make it home safely.” As she said this dragons called to friends and gathered in small bundles soon no one was left.
