The Dragon Forest (Leubantian: Smeug Puśa) is a forest circulating Trilfuva, the capital of Leubantia. The name comes from a famous legend in Leubantia, about how that when the Polish burned Trilfuva in 1042, they brought a dragon with them. A Leubantian prince, worried for his people, summoned the finest knights in the kingdom, only to discover the knights were either burned or eaten. He then decided to deal with the dragon himself. It's said that the dragon specially liked to eat teen girls, so the prince got one of the most beautiful ladies of Europe and used her as "bait" to make the dragon enter the deep forest. When the prince was face-to-face with the dragon, an intense battle was begun, and they would fight for three days and three nights. In the last moment, the exhausted prince fooled the dragon and cut some tree branches with his sword, which fell over the dragon and astonished it. Lastly, the prince got in the dragon's back and stabbed it, giving end to the Polish attack on Trilfuva. It is home to the Rainbow Hawk, a bird native to Leubantia.
