There is Something I want to ask

"These birds are humungous." Le Fang Ling exclaimed looking at the statues of the two big birds that seemed to be hovering over them. It could have been her illusion but she thought the eyes on the statue were following their steps.

"They are engraved after the Vermillion birds that inhabited this mountain when this continent was formed." An Cheng explained about the statues.

"Aren't they here anymore?" le Fang Ling wondered what would happen if these birds still inhabited the cold mountains here.

"No one knows for sure. It's more like hmm.." An Cheng was thoughtful for a while as she thought about what could be the best way to describe what she wanted to say.

"The four great beasts, after which the provincial capitals are named, are just myth now. No one knows for sure if they exist anymore or not." An Cheng thought about the dragon valley in the east which was also devoid of the azure dragon's existence and blessings.
