A village called Montblanc and a castle atop a mountain. A dragon living nearby was hungry and the villagers offered it animals to eat. When the animals ran out, the villagers decided one of them must be offered by lottery, and it was the princess. The princess cried out for help and Saint George arrived on a horse with a lance and shield to fight the dragon. Saint George defeated the dragon with blows from his lance. From the dragon's blood arose a red rose which Saint George gave to the princess.
