Footnote to the opening sentences of The Ghul's Chronicles, Volume 3: 
Slave Princess of Tark:

[quote]
In these opening sentences the storyteller has not been entirely 
accurate. While undeniably true that the Sorcerer King refused to give 
his daughter to Gr'hul, for reasons best known to himself, the daughter 
herself... Her name? Sandalina. She was young, she was pretty and, above 
all, she was volatile. What was a girl to do with a lumbering mountain 
of muscles, attractive in its own mountainous way to be sure, but always 
on the roads fighting monsters or demons or both, not made for romantic 
conversation? And how shy he was and how awkward in her presence! Not at 
all the formidable and overwhelming hero she dreamed about in her 
private dreams. In truth it should be said that Sandalina had been 
rather spoiled by her father, the Sorcerer King. The youngest daughter, 
she had lost her mother at a tender age and her father focussed all his 
affection on her, refusing her nothing, acknowledging her slightest 
whim. A Sorcerer King he might have been but he was helpless when 
Sandalina pouted her pretty rose lips. He had given her everything but a 
suitable husband...

This scene was an opportunity to extensively use Chris B's BlockWall 
macros and to re-use Thomas Luft's Ivy Generator. Otherwise, the usual 
use of Poser, Silo, and Poseray.
