Reply to comment by Kwakigra in [WP] Much like dinosaurs, mythical dragons have all gone extinct. What people don't know is that, like dinosaurs, the dragons also have their descendants. One day on your farm, you encounter a talking, ember-spitting chicken, bent on "restoring their clan." by Allucinatio
This should be an unofficial part two to the Love, Death, and Robots about the farm. How the hell did the chicken get so intelligent? And did it grant the farm.animals some the of intelligence to follow it's orders? Magic?

Such things are beyond a puny human's comprehension. This is the domain of dragons.
Thanks for the feedback! I was going for a horror comedy kind of tone, and the way this chicken attained a higher intelligence and was able to control animals as a consequence of being a dragon was intentionally left ambiguous to invoke the fear of the unknown. Having such an incomprehensible horrifying thing happening to someone so down to earth is very funny to me. I love a good dichotomy.
