After all, my life is, to some extent, a real miracle! When I found a scale on my hands, my usual life of a provincial craftswoman was forever in the past. I moved to the city, got in—though by deception—into the dragon faculty, and became a student. That was a life full of danger and adventures.
At first I was terribly afraid that my lie would be uncovered and they’d simply kick me out of school. Then I tangled with the rector—but I came out victorious, and even obtained a certain amount of gold. I searched for my real father, learned the truth about my true nature, and found out that in reality I’m not a dragon at all. But the Great Serpent’s name is no longer just an empty sound for me. At last, I met the love of my whole life. A noble air—Sat from the Dikran family—the true dragon—loved me and was ready to stay with me no matter what. I wanted to follow him too—anywhere, to the ends of the earth. But his parents…
Let’s put it this way: they were not ready to accept a girl of questionable origin into their family with not a drop of dragon blood in her veins. I can feel how intrigues are being woven around me, and their circle is tightening ever tighter. It seems they even want to marry me off to an unloved man. Well then, Lorca, where our stubbornness went! I’ll have to fight for my right to happiness again!
