Every culture dreams up creatures that never existed, and many still fill our stories. Some mix animals together, like the griffin with its eagle and lion halves, the horse bodied centaur, or the winged Pegasus. Others are pure menace: the fire breathing dragon, the sea monster kraken, the many headed hydra, and the one eyed cyclops. A phoenix rises from its own ashes, and a mermaid sings from the waves. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
