Synopsis
Aventurine is a young dragon who wants to leave her family's mountain cave and prove herself by hunting a human. Instead, a human tricks her into drinking enchanted hot chocolate, and she is turned into a girl with none of a dragon's strength or fire. Stranded among people, she discovers that she loves chocolate. She sets out for the city, hoping to win an apprenticeship at a chocolate house, and has to learn what it means to live as a human far from her mountain home.
