     I, Baron Hulki, Welcome you! We understand you are engaged
     in a quest against darkness it is our desire to help you.
     But alas, We are helpless ourselve! Our King Rolan has been
     kidnapped. He possessed information about the location of 
     the second ring. Therefore we suspect that he is now being 
     tortured by Lord Dragos for this information. Our attempts
     to locate Rolan have failed so far. Creatures of darkness 
     are swarming the land and slaying our brave men everywhere.
     Our only hope is that you find the pass in the mountains and 
     cross to begonia. King Rufus of Begonia may be able to hdlp 
     you find and save our king.

     In the Castle Razag

     Court of King Rufus. Rufus receive Eric and listens to his 
story. When Eric is done, the King speaks: We know that my friend 
Rolan is in the hands of dark forces. Reliable sources inform me 
that he is currently being held at the dark tower. This tower was 
built by Zilfins and used as a prison for demons. It is located 
in Northern Begonia. It has only one entrance which can't be seen 
by ordinary eyes. It can only be opened by singing an old Zilfin 
prayer. Unfortunately no one but Dzomon knows the prayer it is 
also rumored that Rolan is guarded by Hrrulls, demons that cannot 
be destroyed by ordinary means. A staff formed from the brances 
of the Grumm-Tree must be used by a second level wizard to kill 
Hrrulls. Grumm is a very rare tree that grows to it's full size 
and then dies all within on night. The seed must be planted at 
sunset and the staff may be carved at sunrise.

meeting you. You have our gratitude for keeping our hopes alive. 
We would like to offer you Brom, an enchanted bow that has been 
in my family's possession for many years. It will be a true match 
to your skill and courage. You must find a way to reach castle 
Graz and destroy Dragos, the Lord of Darkness. Unfortunelty it is 
not possible to reach Graz on foot. Ancient books mention giant 
Ankha birds that could carry men over the deadly mountains of 
Dragonia. But only elves possessed the knowledge to summon Ankhas

destroyed!!! Nothing but a pile of ash remains. So it came to 
pass that Lord Dragos was destroyed and the land was free once 
again. But many questions remained unanswered. How did Dragos 
manage to beat the ancient defences built by Zilfins and invade 
Batiniq? Why were Zilfins hiding in Demion Rocks, and why didn't 
they act agains Lord Dragos? Was this the final victory or could 
the Dark forces strike again?

Press return to leave the game.
