    Synopsis

    Ancient China, Han Dynasty. A slave girl saves the life of an ageing dragon and escapes her brutal master. Pursued by a ruthless dragon hunter, the girl and the dragon begin an epic journey across China. They carry with them a mysterious stone that must be protected. Dragonkeeper is the story of a young girl who believes she is not worthy even of a name but finds within herself the strength and courage to make this perilous journey and do what must be done.
