        It is summer vacation of 1993.  You passed sixth grade with flying
 colors and are now a seventh grader.  This, you think, has to bed the
 worst summer in a long time.  There is nothing for you to do.  Your
 parents are lazy and hardly ever take you out to the arcade.  You are
 waiting for a violent arcade game to come out on one of your many
 video game systems.  That's the only main thing you have been waiting
 to do all summer.
        It's after the fourth of July weekend and you still have nothing to
 do.  Your parents DID take you to the arcade since it was right near
 the fireworks display.  Thing is, as soon as you gave your opponet
 a bloody uppercut into a put full of spikes  (blood and all) your mom
 changes her mind about two things.  First of all she said you couldn't
 get the game when it came out.  Then she made you leave the game, even
 though you were still playing, for showing her such disrespect.
 Maybe, you think, you should have pulled off his head with the spinal
 chord with it instead of the pit.  Yea.  That must of done it.
        You decide to go visit your school.  Rumors say that the ghosts
 of the people who had school lunch there, and didn't get to the
 hospital in time, still roam the school.  They also say that the
 janitors stay there all the time, even during the summer, cleaning
 up the toxic waste sight.  You decide to take a look for yourself.
 On the way, outside the school, you see a janitor inside.  You make
 a jump to the garbage thingie that they keep all the garbage in.
 They didn't empty it yet.  That was a bad move.  YUCK!  It smelt like
 old McDonald's (r) hamburgers.  You see nothing of interst in there.
 You hurry home to take a shower.  Luckily you got the toxic waste
 off in time.  You know what happened to those other kids...
 After that you go back out and you see something that catches your
 eye.  You know what happens from there...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Here you will learn some background info on the lands never explored
        by one from Earth, until now...

        Hkrow is a land far, far, away.  The villagers there look like humans
 and they speak English.  (most of them)  Most are kind and friendly.
 They are usally willing to help a lost travel out.  If you were
 ever to travel there don't be afraid to ask for help, but don't
 barge in on one, they don't like that very much, even though other
 villagers do that most often too the annoyance of the owner of the
 house.  The land of Hkrow is expands over thousands of miles of land,
 water, etc.  It's very beautiful there.  If one was so lucky to visit
 Hkrow they would call is paradise.  There are only a few things that
 happen to annoy the people in the land of Hkrow.

        Chapter 2: Towns, villages, mountain ranges, etc. of Hkrow

        One main city in the land of Hkrow is the city, or village, of
 Ogausis.  The mayor there is Richard Goldman, a wealthy and caring
 person.  ( see chapter 3)  Another town is Kinweke.  This is a
 town near the waterfalls of Hkrow.  The people there are kind but
 often need help for one reason or another.  The water from the falls
 travels throughout Hkrow.  The mountains are where some evil
 monstors live.  They terrorize the people of Hkrow.  If one were
 to kill, destory, inable, etc. one of these horrable things they
 would be greatly rewarded.  There is a mountain range that is
 throughout Hkrow.  This holds many mysteris and secrets.  No one yet
 has explored them all.  If you were to go there, would you be brave
 enough to?  Yea, shure, you say.  If you were really there to see
 these horrable mountains you would change your mind.  The mountains
 can also be a nice place.  That is, if you don't go wondering off.

        Chapter 3: Famous people of the land Hkrow

        Here I will tell you some of the famous people, things, etc. that
 one may meet while in Hkrow.

        You have heard of the village of Ogausis, right?  As you know, there
 is a mountain range near there, as well as all accross Hkrow.  Thing
 is, in that range the evil Erink lives.  It is a horrable, little,
 midgit.  She loves to make people mad my stealing things.  She does
 this to get revenge for her short appearance.  She can be rather mean.

        While on the subject of Ogasis, let's tell you about the mayor.  He
 is a nice man named Richard.  All of his subjects like him.  There is
 no need for elections for no one would be able to beat him.  He is
 very nive and caring, like most of the people in Ogasis.  He has
 a special award for one deserving it.  To get it you must to some
 great feat to help Ogausis.  If he likes you he may help you if you
 were in need of help.  He could also give your name to other towns
 that might be in need of a hero.

        As you know, the mountains hold many mysteries.  Rumors say there is
 on hold hermit names Alexander that lives in the mountains.  He is
 a very wise old hermit and is feared by many evil things.  They
 might try to stop one from seeing him if he, or the one, could be
 a threat to them.  No one knows for shure if there is an old hermit,
 but I wouldn't be so quick to say there wasn't one.

        One of the creatures known to hate Alexander, if Alex exists, is the
 Travis.  He is a big giant.  It is said that no one could slay him,
 not even the best hero in the universe.  That is probally true.
 People say that he is a real softy and that he might be able to be
 stunned if you tell him something in his language.  So far they do
 not know how it works.  They have a general idea.  That is that
 numbers mean letters.  That's wierd, if you ask me.  The Travis is
 known to stay near where the hermit, Alexander, is supposed to live.
 The Travis is known to wear jeans until his seventh birthday.  He got some
 jeans, from his favorite copany, and put them on.  His friend, who also
 had the same name as the brand on jeans, put crazy glue in his pants.
 He was so mad at his friend for doing that that he went on a mad rampage.
 When he got to the N. power plant he decided to try and kill himself by
 stepping into the generator.  He was exposed to all types of radiation.
 This made him what he is today.  He was also warped into Hkrow, where he is
 still today.

        There is a very smart scholar my the name of john McClain.  They say
 in sixth grade he got all A's, and nothing but.  At least for the
 first three marking peorids.  He says he lost his report card for the
 fourth, so no one is shure.  He is nice and could direct a misguided
 person.  He knows a lot about the lands of Hkrow.  He is said to be
 the smartest in all the land.  Is this true, you ask?  Well, probally.

        There is one WarLord on Hkrow that is feared by all.  His name is
 Elliot.  He has the biggest army in the land of Hkrow.  He hates anyone
 who destroys evil, such as the Erink or Travis.  He has a shot gun, the
 only one in Hkrow.  That is how he made so many people join his side.  He
 claims it as powerful as a shot gun, but it is a bebe gun.  The things it
 shoots only injure one unless rapidly attacked.  He has one weekness.  He
 is willing to beleave alomst anything one would tell him.  When he went to
 Hkrow he was teased by everyone.  Even the nicest kids would make fun of him.
 This is what started his vengence aginst all.  They would say things like
 "Behind you, look!" and "Ahhhhh!  There's a dragon."  He'd beleave them all.
 He would never learn.  It was if he was some sort of robot programed to do
 anything one would tell him.  When he would turn around they would shove him
 down on the ground.  One day, when he was wearing his brand new cloths, he
 was pushed into a puddle.  He got so mad he quit school and started to design
 a weapon.  Since he was in the gifted and talented program he was able to
 make a good weapon.  The "Shot gun."
       There are plenty more people that live in the land of Hkrow, but, I
 don't know them all and it would be a waste of time to try to write
 all of their names here.  After all, all this is is a guide for new
 adventurers that have come to the land Hkrow from other lands
 far, far, away.



       NOTE:

It is easy to cheat on this game. I don't care if you do, it just takes all the fun
away from you!
