Discussion questions

  1. 1What do you think the author hopes readers learn about resolving conflict when observing how Creel uses diplomacy and her dressmaking talent rather than force to help the dragons?
  2. 2Does Prince Luka prove his loyalty more through his official royal standing or through his quiet willingness to stand beside Creel when others doubt her?
  3. 3Describe a moment when a dragon like Velim or Shard felt threatened or misjudged, and share how Creel showed compassion toward them in that situation.
  4. 4In what ways does Creel's effort to make peace between dragons and humans reflect the instruction in Romans 12:18 to live peaceably with all people as far as it depends on you?
