And so she goes to Antioch one day for like the first time and the Roman governor, Librius, sees her and falls in love with her and says, let's get married, you know, come with me.

And she goes, no, I won't because I'm Christian and you're pagan.

And he was like, well, you need to convert to paganism or I'm going to torture you.

And she goes.

Oh, he sounds lovely.

He is the guy you swipe left on or left is the bad one, right?

Which one is it?

uh swipe right i think is if yeah swipe left if you don't like somebody so it's that one get rid of him yeah okay he sucks so he super sucks so she refuses and he keeps her in a prison and tortures her and so what what margaret does then she's being tortured and because of her devout faith she says to god i want you to manifest this evil in a physical form in front of me so i can see the thing i'm battling because she just you know she's being tortured and it's this sort of like

kind of ethereal weird thing going on around her.

So the devil comes in the form of a dragon and she sees it and it swallows her whole and inside its stomach, she makes the sign of the cross and she believes deeply in her faith to overcome this dragon.

And then she bursts out of its stomach or she's vomited up, whichever version you fancy.

Yeah.

Right.

So she sort of, her weapon against the dragon is faith.

And that's the other cool thing about these women.

Some of them you do use swords, some of them use things like this, but some of them also just use the power of their presence, the power of their beliefs.

Wow.

So she uses the power of her belief.

I mean, very much in that very hagiographical, like saintly style, she uses her faith to overcome something.

So then it disappears because she's overcome it.
