asset dragon_rib "Dragon rib arch" complexity=6 float
// one rib-pair of the ancient dragon the crypt was carved into: two colossal ivory ribs bow out from
// rubble mounds either side of the hall and meet overhead under a chunky vertebra with a tall spine
// fin. The feet sink 0.4 m below the origin (the scene places it with lift=0.4 so it stands clear of
// the floor clutter under it). Seeds hang a candle wheel, an iron cage or moss from the vertebra.
