Dragon Quest

Long ago, a man named Roto returned peace from the hands of evil. The peace came in the form of a ball, but not just any ball. It was the sacred Ball Of Light. Roto returned to the King with the Ball of Light and there were great festivals and celebrations. Eventually, Roto took his leave and was never seen again. Years passed and the people prospered, but one person was not happy with the way things were. He lived in the western mountain cave, far from Radatome's walls. While exploring deep within the cave, he came across a sleeping dragon. Suddenly, the dragon awoke and the man was very frightened. As he closed his eyes to stop himself from seeing his demise, nothing happened. The man grew tired of waiting and threw a stick to distract it. Surprisingly the dragon picked it up in his mouth and brought it back to the man, like a dog. After that he discovered he could make the dragon do whatever he wanted. He then named himself the King Dragon. Suddenly a disaster occurred! Charlock Castle rose from its dirt grave and everyone knew this was a bad omen. A few minutes later a swarm of Slimes, Ghosts, Dragons and other monsters attacked Radatome and the villages across the land. Though they fought bravely, the years of peace had made the people weak. The Ball Of Light and Princess Laura were stolen by the King Dragon himself!

After this terrible attack the people were terrified to walk outside again. Many men were killed traveling between places and people locked their doors at night. You could hear the Slimes scratching and mumbling along the walls of Radatome at night. The King fell into a deep depression over his kidnapped daughter, even though the legends told of a descendant of Roto coming to restore peace. The King believed it to be a myth until one day a scrawny looking young man appeared at the King's feet and asked permission to retrieve the Ball of Light and Princess Laura. Since many other hapless warriors volunteered and failed, The King had already given up hope. But he saw a light in this young man's eyes and knew he was the descendant of Roto. Giving various items and gold, the King sent the warrior out. Now you must guide the hero to victory and defeat the King Dragon!
