The existence of the dragon's pearl was a subject of scepticism among mortals, with its very presence shrouded in mystery and disbelief.
It was believed to be the sole artefact capable of restoring balance to the world, a task achievable only through the combined efforts of the dragon's daughter and a demon who had the same birth date as her.
However, these tales were considered a legend, as both the dragon's daughter and the dragon's pearl vanished from the mortal and immortal realms thousands of years ago.
