CONQUEST OF THE CRYSTAL PALACE
THE STORY Fifteen years ago The Crystal Palace was a thriving kingdom.
The people of The Crystal Palace prospered and all things great and
small were treated equal. During this time lived a kind and gentle
ruler who encouraged the people to be honest and fair; his name was
Bretor. Bretor was famous throughout the world for his achievements.
The King's wife, Queen Zyla, gave birth to a son. His name was Prince
Farron.
Tales of this kingdom spread far and near and people soon flocked to
The Crystal Palace seeking citizenship. The Kingdom of The Crystal
Palace became very populated with people of all races.
One day as a Dysonian man was telling a group of people about The
Crystal Palace, Zaras, an evil warspirit of the East, became interested
in the story.
Zaras was a terrible War Spirit of the 20th Century with great power.
Zaras

was capable of taking any shape or form and was thought to be
indestructible.
Zaras appeared one day and simulated an army of evil guardians who
eventually took control of The Crystal Palace. King Bretor was
eliminated in a flash and so was Queen Zyla. The people of The Crystal
Palace were transported to the stars and areas of the sky not seen
before. Eventually, there were only two people left for Zaras to deal
with; Prince Farron and Zapolis, the palace guardian and keeper. Farron
was transformed into a 6 month old baby and Zapolis was turned into a
dog. Farron called him Zap.
The Crystal Palace became an evil lair of mazes and chambers filled
with goons and henchmen of Zaras' imagination.
Zap watched over Farron and insured his safety.
When Farron turned 15 years old, he and Zap set out for The Crystal
Palace. Their goal and your challenge is to restore the peace and
unity once felt by the people before The Conquest of the Crystal
Palace.
