The Heroic Brother
Everyone in the land of
Barogan feared the deep dark
woods. The people were afraid
not only of savage animals that
lived there but of fierce
monsters and giants that
walked around the forest as
well.
2 There were also
stories about creatures that
could change their
appearance to deceive
people. One of these was a
serpent that could change
into a lady.
 It
had enchanted many of
those who explored the
woods. Some of them were
turned into stone while the
others were put to sleep
forever. 3 One day, a man
with extraordinary strength
went into the forest in search
of his missing brother.
Unafraid, he fought every
monster and giant with
