Quest of the Hero II Here is the story of this land as told by the Book of the Legends. Many years ago The Dark Wizard tried to occupy The Free Lands. He was defeated by a hero and life in the kingdom continued as nothing had happened. But then the situation changed, the kingdom of Free Lands expanded and got more plentiful but at the same time the Castle Kings directed that plentiful income into building new castles and villages, forgetting the importance of a strong army.

But the evil was not sleeping. At the same time as the Kings and Majors were retiring their armies, the Dark Wizard had been building his dark army and attacked The Free Land again. This time his magic was too powerful. He cast his spells on The Free Land and enslaved many people with his magic. Now the Kings and Majors ask for your help. You need to defeat the Dark Wizard, who lives in the Dark Castle at the north-western corner of the Kingdom. The stone path goes there from the King's Castle. Follow the road and you will be there. Good luck!
