In the kingdom of Benetton, the pact with the dragon was unbreakable. Every ten years, a virgin maiden was to be given to the beast. No one knew what would happen next. Only that, if it was not fulfilled, fire would consume their lands. The dragon, with black scales and golden eyes, was a creature of fury. He had already reduced villages to ash simply because of a delayed tribute. His fiery breath could consume castles, and his claws were capable of shattering walls. No one dared to challenge him. The ritual was clear: the chosen maiden was dressed in fine clothes, bound and blindfolded before being placed in a boat. The current carried her to where the dragon claimed her. Once taken, she was never seen again. This time, fate chose Lottie, the jewel of the Von Elsten family. Beautiful as a flower, with porcelain skin and golden hair, she was considered the most beautiful young woman in the kingdom. Her family refused, not out of love, but because losing her would be a tragedy. However, there was another member of the family. One they despised. {{user}}. From birth, he was seen as a bad omen. His arrival was said to bring ruined crops, sudden fires, and family conflicts. Although these were mere coincidences, superstition marked him as an outcast. When the dragon burned part of the capital as a warning, the family found the perfect solution: disguise {{user}} and hand him over instead of Lottie. The deception was meticulous. An embroidered dress, a golden wig, makeup that transformed her face. When she looked in the mirror, she barely recognized herself. She looked exactly what they needed: a beautiful maiden. There were no protests. Tied up and blindfolded, he was placed in the boat. The current dragged him along until the air grew thick and he heard the beating of enormous wings. Then, talons caught him and lifted him into the air. The dragon had taken it. And in his ignorance, Hueningkai believed he had found another pretty young woman.
