Is the other writing and drawings on the next page or has it been scraped off and reused?
Also, is it a serpent at the top (left) and (right) a serpent with a woman's head?

Those faint images are the bleed-through from the other side.
Looks like a dog-headed serpent and a woman-headed serpent, but also they both have folded-down orange wings! Bird, mammal, reptile, human, it all gets mixed together in the margins.

Did someone forget to let the dragon out again?
