Description: The king of Armania believes the volcanic eruptions, sinkholes, and ground shakers are due to the gods being angry because his citizens commit wrongful deeds and worship the evil horned god Barthos. His son Prince Wilek, the ever dutiful First Arm of Armania, thinks his father's superstitions are nonsense. Prince Wilek is sent by the king to investigate when a messenger arrives and claims that the town of Farway has been swallowed by the earth. The prince discovers things are more cataclysmic than one lost city as he sets out on a desperate journey to save his people and his world. But can he do it before the entire land crumbles?
