OVERVIEW

Brief Synopsis
In spite of the fact that it is terrorized by a fire-breathing dragon, the sixth-century kingdom of Urland seems to be at peace. This is because their king has entered into a pact with the beast, promising to sacrifice virgins twice a year if it will leave rest of the citizens alone. Usually, the virginal victims are taken from poor families, but when the king's daughter is to be the next sacrifice, a wizard and his apprentice are recruited to use their magic to kill the dragon.
