Dobrynya Nikitich is one of the most popular bogatyrs (epic knights) from the Rus' folklore based on a real warlord named Dobrynya. This story of Dobrynya and the dragon starts with Dobrynya's mother telling Dobryana to avoid the Saracen Mountains, to not trample on baby dragons, to not rescue Russian captives, and to not bathe in the Puchai River. Dobrynya disobeyed his mother and did all four things.
