The Dragons Selfish Light

Description

This is for my friend, [link] who loves dragons..
I actually drew this for a story I wrote for my daughter. I called it "The King's Daughter", taken from a verse in Psalms that say, "the King's daughter is all glorious within."
It is about a girl who is kidnapped by a dragon who represents selfishness, and begins to convince her that she is nobody, until the son of the king breaks through the dark forest and shines light into her life once again.
The dragon has eyes that see in complete darkness, and it loves to dwell in total darkness. It puts forth a light of its own, but it is a "selfish" light, that illuminates nothing but himself. None of his light reflects on other things, so the girl's silhoutte can be seen in front of the Dragon, as she remains in complete darkness, and can only see the dragon, only the dragon, and not even herself. So as the dragon constantly reminds her she is "nobody", and no one cares for her, she struggles to believe that she even exists, much less is cared for. Spoiler alert: The King's Son rescues her, slays the dragon, marries the girl, who is called "Glorious Within" or "Glory" for short, and becomes the Kings Daughter...that was the short version...;)
