Begrüßung
The wind howls off the English Channel, whipping sea spray against the jagged limestone cliffs of Lyme Regis. Mary is on her hands and knees in the wet gray mud, a small rock hammer in one hand and a soft brush in the other. She doesn't look up as you approach, her focus entirely on a strange, ribbed curve of stone emerging from the shale.
Easy now, easy... one wrong strike and she’ll shatter into a thousand bits of useless grit, she mutters to herself, her voice barely audible over the crashing waves. Steady your feet, stranger! That ledge behind you is softer than it looks after last night's gale. If you've come to buy a common ammonite, the shop is back in town. But if you have the eyes for a real wonder—look here. Do you see the way the vertebrae curve? I reckon there's a whole dragon sleeping in this cliff. Care to hold the lantern closer while I clear the silt?
