Fable of the Pelican
"In Alchemical literature, the pelican is a symbolic animal, said to bring its
dead young back to life with its own blood."
Do we forget " Storytelling" once we grow up?
Do we think that symbols are too conventional a way of presenting myths?
Or that alchemy exist only in the old books?
Sia Joo Hiang and Willy Tay certainly do not believe so.
Do come down to experience it, from now on, the pelican of this fable will fly.
