Ataensic, a young woman, was desired by the "Chief of All the Earth" and had to pass several tests before becoming his bride. These she passed, became his wife, and was with child. But the Chief doubted it was his child and cast them both from heaven. They became the ancestors of the human race.
(Note: I realize that there isn't a dragon in this tale, so I'm looking for more information. Seems odd to have the name Fire Dragon and have no dragon in the story, eh?)
