@HuesRisingStars I mainly pulled from the Bunny Foo Foo nursery rhyme plus some research into the fashions of Babylon and Germanic tribes. Also some hints from Jewish Golem mythos.
Being a pretty oblivious dragon, Warez finds himself slow to picking up on visual cues. His friends have to make it quite obvious when they want to get his attention.

Today is the #WinterSolstice and the beginning of #Yule. Yule is a festival historically observed by the #Germanic peoples. It has been to the #WildHunt, the #Norse #god #Odin, and the #pagan #AngloSaxon, #Mōdraniht. It is a #celebration marking the beginning of #Winter
