Tales of the Ancients

"Tales of the Ancients"

A story about a wizard named Merlin who worked for a king named Arthim, who married a beautiful woman named Jinnaviere and hosted a group of knight paladins of the great GOLDEN ARROW. Goodly knights they went out from the great teepee and sought far and wide the metal cup known as the "FLOWER OF ELAGGNITHGINK".

Bravest of all the knight paladins was Lince of Lott, who enamored of Jinnaviere killed himself by casting himself from a cliff.

Gliduan, purest in thought, is said to have come closest to the cup. His diaries record where he saw the cup on three different occasions.

Triester found himself far afield and fighting bravely for a kingdom in need of a valiant goodly knight, he stayed and founded a new city.

The golden arrow called Llandria its home capital. Arthim died there defending his city that he built.

The last paragraph is crossed out and written in the margin is the following text.

Arthim, King of Dnalgne, ? to ?, built the city of TOLEMAC. This city never had anything to do with Llandria. Signed, Yosephi.
