Zoulvisia
The Magic Mountain
A King in a blue tunic standing in a tree, looking down at a forest glade
There was once a King who had seven sons. Before he passed away, he warned them never to hunt on the Magic Mountain, for no one who went there ever returned. But one by one, the six older brothers ignored the warning and vanished. Finally, the youngest son became King. He was determined to find his brothers, so he rode to the mountain with his friends.
In the forest, they found a feast laid out on the grass. His friends ate and drank, but they fell down instantly - poisoned! The young King hid in a large walnut tree to watch. Soon, a warrior appeared on a shining horse. It was not a man, but a beautiful woman named Zoulvisia with hair like liquid gold. She cleared the trap and reset it for new victims.
"I see you!" cried the King, revealing himself. "You have taken my brothers!" Zoulvisia looked at him with eyes like fire. "Follow me if you dare," she challenged, "to seek your revenge!" She galloped away toward her crystal tower.
