Lilly wanted independence and a home of her own, two things the people of her village believed a woman shouldn’t have. When her boss staked her out as a virgin sacrifice to an invading dragon, all hope was lost. Then Cyrano the Dragon started a conversation and she formed a plan.
Step one, talk the dragon out of his hoard which proved easy enough since Lilly knew the dragon’s weakness: beer.
Step two, create a tavern where the dragon could drink to his hearts content. Again, no problem for a girl with Lilly’s smarts.
Getting the inbred, chauvinistic villagers to allow a woman to run a business is where things got tricky. Who would have thought her own villagers were more difficult to handle than a drunken dragon? If she succeeded, she could live her life on her own terms. Considering the problems with any new business, (including a dragon slayer, a goblin, a bridge troll and an over-protective unicorn) it was more likely she’d go down the dragon’s gullet.
