  Summary

  In a world where killing dragons measures your worth, James Potter isn't much.
  He is everything his dad wishes him not to be, and would give much to turn things around.
  Yet, when he gets the chance to, he renounces it.
  In a way he could not have imagined, this will lead him to the one place he is meant to reach.
  James Potter belongs in the sky.

  or

  James Potter befriends a super very nice dragon and learns so much from it, along with everyone around him.
