Once Upon A Time ...

A long, long time ago there was a great and terrible war. A war that men fought for their freedom against the Etherian race.  A war so destructive that the world was almost destroyed. A war that the gods themselves stopped and broke the world in two.

Into a mundane world of the waking known as The Kingdom and a magical world of dreams known as Grimmwold.  They erected a ward between the two worlds, the Gate of Horn and Ivory, and for men to pass into Grimmwold they had to do so in dreams while they slept.

Years and years passed and many journeyed nightly from the Kingdom to Grimmwold and lived out great Adventures and upon awakening brought back the tales of their great deeds.  The tales of the Big Bad Wolf, Goldilocks, Little Red and a Sleeping Princess surrounded by briars, entered the Kingdom and gathered together to form a very special key - A book that if one read or heard the stories read from it, would allow one to travel to the world of dreams when one slept.

So now travelers in this time when petty Kings and Wicked Lords rule the Kingdom and the world seems pale and weak, as thin as watered down milk - now a new group of Heroes and Villains hear the tales of the lost and hidden world again and come night they sleep and enter Grimmwold!
