The Eyes of Petra
As a young boy, David loved to listen to his grandfathers invented stories of the land of Astillon, involving ferocious beasts, beautiful princesses, and heroic deeds by mighty warriors. How he had wished to be part of those tales. Now, at seventeen, following the old mans funeral, his wish is about to come true. A discovered gateway leads David to his beloved childhood story land, where he is immediately propelled into a perilous journey. Shocking revelations await, as he discovers the secret of his lineage and learns of the power of the dazzlingly beautiful gemstones, the Eyes of Petra. With Astillons borders being threatened by the Zelgs, an invading bestial horde, an act of treachery sees David having to embark upon a dangerous quest in order to save the land, aided only by the great swordmaster, Arrand, the beautiful copper-haired princess, Karlene and an old hermit, Predol.
