Mulan before the movies
The earliest surviving telling is the Ballad of Mulan, a northern folk song preserved in a later anthology. It does not include the dragon sidekick or romantic plot familiar from modern films; its focus is Mulan’s decision to replace her aging father and her quiet return home after twelve years of service.
