Hone Dragon no Mana Musume

Deep within a forest that serves as a dumping ground, where the world discards everything it no longer wants, a young girl named Eve is callously abandoned. She is found there by Nem, an ancient dragon whose long life is steadily drawing to a close. Though his remaining time is short, the dying dragon chooses to take the child in, offering her the love and shelter no one else would give. Under Nem's watchful protection, Eve flourishes, growing up strong and healthy in the warmth of their unlikely household. Their days together are quiet and peaceful—a bond between parent and child forged across the boundaries of species. Yet the happiness they share is fragile, for the shadow of a sorrowful farewell looms ever closer as the old dragon's strength continues to fade. But when the inevitable moment of parting finally arrives, Eve does not respond with despair. Instead, she takes an action no one could have anticipated. This is a heartwarming fantasy of adoption, devotion, and the profound ties of family that transcend blood, race, and kind.
