DESCRIPTION:

—Curtains Rise— O holiest of sovereigns, high princess of Immernachtreich! Praise her eminent rule, extol her magnanimous judgment, exalted be her rosy visage. The thunder roars for her, and for her are towers built. The fief-lords of Immernachtreich and The Great Sekretär, most loyal Ozvaldo Hrafnavins, gather here to await her command. And her knights, silent and stern as the majestic mountains. The first, the Knight of Valor, armed with a sword of keenness unmatched, yea, enough to sunder dragonscale. The second, the Knight of Sincerity, shod in armor true, enough to withstand the storm of a dragon's wings. The third, the Knight of Charity, righteous and pure in all ways, who quailed not before any darkness. And the other knights gathered behind them, their heads bowed beneath the tower summit, gathered at their Prinzessin's feet. And as for the Prinzessin, she withdrew her gaze from the deep night before addressing her servants: "Valor, Sincerity, Charity, my most excellent subjects. Follow me unto eternity." "For I am the noblest soul in all the Immernachtreich. So long as my heart beats, I shall never forsake you." And the knights obeyed her: "Our swords and armor are yours. May they be for you a means to break all shackles and guard against all corruption." "Our true hearts also we give unto you, that they may defend your noble soul." This was their knightly oath, and they would be by her side as she hunted the wicked dragon Tasraque.

For far away, black-hearted Tasraque had ripped and devoured the all-protecting night sky and set up its lair. It had slithered in the dark, sharpening its fangs and claws, and with its flaming breath it had scorched the Prinzessin's heart, turning her eyes red. This was the Prinzessin's fated foe, and their showdown was inevitable. But the prophecy of fate has already been foretold. Fair and pure souls need not fret. Simply open one's eyes and prepare to bear witness, for she shall surely return victorious. —Curtains Fall—
