Once upon a time, there lived a great king named Mudan. The people loved him because he provided them with bountiful gifts of magic, and music, and life everlasting. He married the most beautiful woman in all the world, Queen Kestra. The Queen had beautiful black hair that shone polished obsidian, jasper brown skin, emerald eyes, and ruby lips.
Under Mudan's rule, things were good. Nothing bad ever happened.
