Sir Lazuli wrote: XD of course pterosaurs aren’t dinosaurs. I should have been more clear; I was using the term “dinosaur” in the general sense to describe extinct archosaurs. I thought about making the distinction but decided most people know “dinosaur” as just a broader term. Though I guess this is coming down to splitting hairs. Here’s what I meant:

I infer from the quote that pterosaurs exist in Arda, and are nearly extinct.

Since pterosaurs exist, archosaurs are proven to be a thing in Arda, and are nearly extinct similar to our world.

Since there are ancient giant reptiles that are all but extinct, it follows that true dinosaurs just might be a thing in Arda.

If we are nitpicking, let me point out your absolutely atrocious spelling:

“Ptereeeosaureees” should be “Pterosaurs”

“Dinosaureees” should be “Dinosaurs”

“Reeeptiles” should be “Reptiles”

“Lizareeeds” should be “Lizards”

I hope to see improvement in future and try not to rest your finger on the “e” key too much while you are typing.

alright you got me
