The maiden holding the leash is without doubt the monster in the equation. The dragon is being lead by her and she has lead him to be killed by the knight. The dragon obviously, by the look in his eyes, is not even fighting back which shows he has no contempt for the night or wanted to destroy him. The knight just automatically assumes because he is a dragon he is dangerous and is going to attack. The maiden is not even attempting to try and stop the attack which shows that she wanted it to happen.
