Squirrels + Crack = Transportation

Centuries ago, two men traipsed through a wood filled with creatures the likes of which their eyes had never seen.  Creatures great and small, winged and fanged, creatures of all shapes and sizes.  But one beast shone above all others, flaunting its prowess as king of the leaf bearing tree.  Their conversation upon gazing at [...]
