When the dragons see Spanos – the beardless one – digging a ditch that leads away from the river, they say to him “For God’s sake; Stop what you are doing at once, because what you are doing will reduce the river water and the king and his army will come and cut us to pieces.
We have always had dragons in Cyprus and they never leave us in peace. They have always loved our land and our springs; they loved them so much that they would even bleed us dry. Whether from the Orient or from the Occident each and every one wants the same thing: land and water.
