The story

What Is The Girl and the Dragon About?

The premise of The Girl and the Dragon without spoilers.

Each evening the town settles into peace as the lamplighter keeps the streets lit, aided by a nocturnal owlet who helps light the lanterns. At dawn the mayor checks that every lamp is out before daylight. While the lamplighter rests, the owlet sleeps on the roof, occasionally waking Drakosha—a dragon who lives in a garbage can.
