Bride of Ignat

"If life is meaningless no matter where you are..."

Rita, a lonely boy, is chosen as the "Dragon's Bride" by the village custom. The ancient legend of the "Snowy Mountain Dragon" is now nothing more than a legend, but Rita, unable to find his role in the village, accepts the sacrifice while realizing that it is to reduce the number of mouths to feed. Rita, who was left alone and freezing in the snowstorm, is saved by Ignat, a beautiful dragon in human form. Rita's eyes sparkle because the dragon really exists, and he is able to fulfill his role as a "bride", but Ignat rejects him, saying "I don't need a bride". Still, Rita cannot give up, and he learns the secret of the ritual to turn humans into "dragons".
