    Beautiful, confident prose. "Once, long ago to us, Monkey could be found in the land we now call Ningxia. He was getting up to tricks and mischief, as he did. As he still does, probably, because Monkey was never one to change a winning strategy. And, as it so happened, he fell in with a rather shy dragon. It may seem strange that a dragon should be shy, when they are generally such solemn and haughty creatures, full of ambition and the lust for brilliance."
