------------------- Long ago, in the land of Zenia, lived a great king loved by his people. He had risen to the throne through trickery and lies but had proved himself to be a great king.
He ruled for many years,

wisely helping his people and keeping his land safe until the Darkness came.
A deep fog rolled across Zenia, and from the fog came hideous beasts that terrorized the country.

He finished off the last soldier and walked towards the statues, preparing himself to destroy them. As he swung his hammer, he found he could not move. The statue of the king had grabbed his arm.
He screamed as he dissolved into the air. The other

------------------- The knight statue drew its stone sword and dove into the hordes of monsters, slicing and cutting adn yelling as the monsters dissolved.
