Dans un royaume lointain, un prince s’apprête à monter sur le trône. Sachant qu’il vaut mieux régner à deux, ses parents sont déterminés à lui trouver une épouse aimable.

Le prince fait la rencontre de plusieurs demoiselles, mais aucune d’entre elles ne lui plaît… Toutefois, en l’absence de la famille royale, le royaume fait face à une terrible menace : un immense dragon cracheur de feu s’en prend aux habitants et aux soldats, et ceux-ci prennent la fuite! Quand il apprend la nouvelle, le prince retourne aussitôt protéger son royaume… En chemin, il rencontre un courageux chevalier couvert d’une armure étincelante. Ensemble, ils combattent le dragon… et découvrent du même coup le vrai amour!

Characters

The Prince ⁕ Our main character is a prince from a kingdom far from here. His character is someone who readers can look up to and see themselves in. Trying to find his true love, he is hopeful for his happily ever after. His kindness and appreciation for those around him presents him as an admirable character. The Knight ⁕ The other main character of this story is a handsome knight. Compared to the prince, readers aren’t really given a glimpse at this character until the end of the story. However, with the scenes we are given, we can tell the knight is a kind character.
