Chinese New Year 2013 • Water Snake
2017-01-23
In the battle for the twelve signs of the zodiac, the animals had to cross a great river and some of the contestants had a bit of a struggle with each other on the way.
The snake was one that seemed to perhaps have taken an unfair gain, but the Emperor deemed it clever and allowed her a place in the calendar. The snake jumped ahead of the horse, scaring her and costing her the sixth position.
This snake would never think of getting in the way of a horse, though. She's much too polite for that. Except when playing Dutch Blitz. She gets quite sassy then.
