1) -T H E S T O R Y-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grand Master Sun Wizard, Acanthropsis stood on the crest of
Bromire and sighed into the cool, morning breeze. For a few brief
moments his steamy breath danced above his furrowed brow before being
whipped away on the wind towards the dark and distant mountains of Krocott.
As the first rays of the sun brushed Acanthropsis's wizened face, and
bird-song announced the dawning of a new morn, he knew that this was the
day he was going to die.
Staring at the welcome sunrise and drinking in its power-giving warmth,
Acanthropsis couldn't help but fear the inevitable. His mind replayed the
last few fateful hours in haunting colours.
It was in the twilight hours of this very day, while he was working in his
inner sanctum, that Acanthropsis discovered the power; the power that had
been eluding him for so long: Cosmic Power:
Years of research and experimentation had at last come to fruition; but at
what cost? He stood amid the mystical light of his mighty sorcery,
watching it play on the dank, stone walls of this sanctum, adn was must
have been hours, little dreaming of the cost.
Slowly, the memories faded and Acanthropsis looked once more on the
mountains of Krocott and their now sun-drenched peaks.
He knew now that the price for such a discovery was his life but but that
he had to pass on his knowledge, before he died, to one whoo was worthy.
He tought of his two apprentices: Alestes and Mentor. Both greatly skilled
in the art of magic and both equally deserving of Cosmic Power. The Grand
Wizard would have to devise a test for his two understudies...and hope
that one of them would fail.

2) -T H E G A M E-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Agony loading sequence shows the test Acanthropsis inflicits on his
two apprentices...and the result...
You are Alestes in his distance-devouring form of a mystical owl, and as
such you must battle your way across six beautifully animated but deadly
dangerous levels.
You must fly like the wind to the magical place that holds the secret of
Cosmic Power. And every inch of the way you fight for your life against
the maleficent creatures pitted against you by Mentor. Your dextery will
be tested to the limits as you avoid or destroy the enemy hordes while
finding andpicking up spells and potions to help you in your seemingly
impossible task.
Only incredible flying skills, bravery in combat and a sound knowledge of
the mystical arts will see you through...
