A short-ish kinetic novel about 2 knights in shining armor (not really) falling in love plus the normal everyday life of a runaway princess with her dragon housemate.
SYNOPSIS
"Oh, guests? We rarely see travelers around here. Welcome! "
The beautiful princess of Alsgard was apparently kidnapped by a savage, evil dragon. Acting according to his family's wish, Baron Lucien Adelsburg set out on a journey to rescue her. Along the way, he somehow found himself a companion: Prince Idwal of the neighboring country Velvede.
It took them two months to discover where the dragon's lair might be, and two more to travel to where it was. They faced many harships along the way, but the two pressed on, determined. Swords in hands, they were ready for a life-or-death battle with the dragon to bring the princess back.
But...
"...What's with this peaceful atmosphere? Why is the dragon's lair such a small and cozy house???”
As it turned out, the princess wasn't kidnapped. And she wasn't a damsel in dítress at all
