The Mages of Marvenda - James Farrell - Bog

Here are gathered the three Tales of Marvenda. The first describes the restoration of the ancient Knights via the eruption of the avenging ghosts of the dead Knights to withstand an invasion of Mages. The second concerns the Orders of Mervenda, the Knights and the Mages. Sent into the west to seek three mystical keys of gold, a censer and the balm of the Underkeeper, a Knight and a Mage and a free Peasant unlock the mysterious Valley and free the Child: and there came to him Mages from the east. The third reveals the fall of the Two Orders. The King who unites them is seduced by dragon-lore and becomes a sorcerer, and the Mages swiftly fall into dragon-magic, and go with war against the grown Child, to betray him.
