That time there was only one princess. One king said: &#8220;Maybe the princess can help.&#8221; &#8220;The princess?&#8221; asked another king. It was planned that the princess should help. A messenger told the princess. The princess packed her stuff and went towards the horizon. In the evening she found a cave and a sad dragon. The dragon looked up, surprised to find the princess. &#8220;Why were you crying?&#8221; asked the princess. &#8220;They are fighting wars.&#8221; said the dragon. &#8220;I know.&#8221; said the princess. &#8220;I am a peace dragon.&#8221; &#8220;I love peace&#8221; said the princess &#8220;We could work together.&#8221; &#8220;I love that idea.&#8221; said the dragon. &#8220;Get on my back!&#8221; Together they flew.
