What Secret of the Golden Scales is about
Queen Margaret of Ithaca gives birth to a golden divine dragon rather than a human prince. She hides the shocking secret, sneaks gold from the royal vault to feed her son, and narrowly avoids being exposed time and again. Captain Stefan recognizes the dragon as Ithaca’s legendary guardian and covers for the queen. At the naming ceremony, an Egyptian envoy tries to hunt the dragon with the cursed Eye of the Sun.

Is it worth watching?
The draw here is a world with its own rules and a lead who learns to bend them. On top of that: waiting for the truth about who the lead really is to come out.
The whole series takes roughly 2–3 hours, so it's an easy binge.
