The second letter you are receiving for your acrostic puzzle is :
“L” stand for Legend:
The Legend of The Nine Dragons
The mainland overlooking Hong Kong is called Kowloon, which means Nine Dragons. Legend says that the boy emperor Ping, who once lived there, noticed there were eight hills so he called them the “Eight Dragons.” A servant pointed out that an emperor is considered to be a dragon, therefore the eight hills plus the emperor made “nine dragons.”
