THE PREFACE
swept over all that he conquered. In former times Cravan had been called Baraca, a
beautiful land of blessing. The King and
Queen of that land had ruled with fairness and virtue and were greatly loved by their subjects.
However, on a dark and cloudy day, an assassin visiting the court as an emmisary of Natase, murdered the King and Queen while
they slept. No one knew who committed the crime. Natase's emmissaries began to accuse different leaders so that everyone
grew suspicious. Civil war followed shortly. In the middle of the war, Natase offered help to one of the factions led by Duke
Ramaon. With each ensuing victory the deep mist crept steadily over the land. Creatures appeared that had never been seen in
Baraca. A huge winged beast flew over the battlefields terrifying the enemies of Natase and Ramaon.
When victory was won, Natase turned on his allies, accusing one to the other, thus by lies and deception, he enslaved them. He
spared only one of the royal household, a two year old PRINCESS CALIATRA.
