| Summary: | "Thousands of years ago, the god Kur created the first race, the wreth, who were beautiful and powerful in magic. He commanded them to destroy Ossus, the dragon at the heart of the world. for this task, the wreth needed servants, slaves, and soldiers, so they created a lesser race of their own - the humans - who fought and died at their side. The land was devastated by their magical warfare, and the wreths in time exterminated each other. Now, millennia later, the land is fertile again and well settled. Humans have survived, flourished, and built empires of their own. The wreth and the dragon Ossus are tales of a legendary past. But one day a party of wreths rides out of the desert waste and up to the gates of King Adan Starfall's castle, in a swirl of storm and a crackling of magic. The queen of the sand-wreths demands that the humans return to her service, to wake the dragon and to slay him" -- |
