Faith. Reason. Fire. The legend you know is only half the story. Sir George has killed eighteen dragons. The Church calls him a saint. The people call him a hero. But George has begun to wonder if killing is all God wants from him. When a scholar named Elenora refuses to flee a dragon attack—choosing instead to study the dying beast—George's certainties begin to crumble. She sees what he has never thought to ask: these creatures are not demons. They are animals, ancient and magnificent, following patterns that can be understood. Together, they forge an unlikely partnership. The sword and the pen. Faith and reason. A warrior who questions his calling and a scholar who challenges everything the Church believes. But as a great migration drives the dragons toward Rome, George must choose: cling to the old ways of violence, or trust that understanding might save more lives than his blade ever could. *Saint George: The Dragon Quest* is a light LitRPG historical fantasy featuring divine callings, prehistoric beasts, and a love story forged in fire.
