Enlightenment has come to The Land of the Real. A great, endless, and far away land, a place where time moves in two directions and dreams are the encrypted messages of The Great Shadow. The Mad-Black Toad trade is beginning to take shape. One lick from the black toad ooze and its subject sits on The Throne of Enlightenment. Soon, this enlightenment will become a threat to Kings and royalty alike, and a war against the illegal substance will wage, and a new revolution against Kinghood will draw its shadow across the face of The Land of the Real.
