The
story:
A long time ago, in a fairy-tale kingdom, there reigned a good and righteous king by the name of Kroum. The land was fruitful, the kingdom had been at peace with its neighbors for many years, and the people lived calmly and happily.
The
king had a daughter whom he loved a lot, and who was the meaning of his life.
The princess possessed magical healing power, and together with other
sorceresses of the kingdom helped the diseased find cure for their suffering.
When the princess turned twenty, black plague swept through the country. The sorceresses gathered all their powers to fight the plague, but many found their death trying to help the people. One of the plague victims was Kroum's daughter. The loss of his only child brought him great anguish, and he never cared what happened beyond his castle walls anymore...
At that time Kroum's first counselor Varadin took rule over the kingdom. He was righteous and wise like the king, but the sudden power he was granted frightened him. Fearing that he might not manage to rule the whole kingdom alone, he turned to magic for assistance. And because black magic was easier to learn, he devoted himself to it. As time passed, black magic overcame Varadin's spirit and he became greedy and evil. He kept raising the taxes, and his enchanted servants plundered the land and tormented the people.
The
years of prosperity for the kingdom seemed gone forever. All had fallen into
deep apathy, and only a young wizard by the name of Boyan believed that the
power of white magic could return Kroum from the world of madness, and Varadin
from endless darkness.
The
objective:
The first obstacle
before Boyan is to find a way into Kroum's castle. Varadin's servants make this
task almost impossible, by strictly guarding all castle entrances. There's only
one chance left for Boyan – to
reach the castle through the underground mazes of the catacombs, which where
designed as an escape path for the
king and his court in case of an attack on the castle.
After
a long search, Boyan discovers the catacombs entrance, only to find that this
way won't be easier – Varadin has placed guards there too.
And besides his
guards, the catacombs are also full of many kinds of mutated creatures, who
couldn't find place in the normal world. Here live the surviving sorceresses,
banished to the dungeons by Kroum in his madness after the death of his
daughter. But the greatest obstacle are the magic gates connecting the
underground levels. Each one of them is unlocked by five different magic keys,
kept by the Keylords – extremely powerful and dangerous creatures.
And
so Boyan stands in front of a very hard and perilous adventure, in which he can
count only on his magic wand and the help of the healer sorceresses.
Fortunately, with each battle Boyan will gain experience, which will strengthen
his power and endurance. But in the end, the only thing he can really count on
is his own courage...
