| "Once in a kingdom called Delain, there was a king with two sons." One son (Peter) was talented and charming, and everybody liked him, and the other (Thomas) was dumpy and fat and everybody (including himself) thought him a fool.
This is the story of this kingdom and the murder of it's king and the confusing events that take place after. For the real murder gets away and the rightful heir is imprisoned in a needle tower in the sky and only one man can right what is wrong by telling everyone what he has seen through the eyes of the dragon. | ||
