The prologue

The land by the sea

Or

How to dance the Purk

Once upon a time, in a land far away, but not too far away just enough to be inconvenient to travel to, where the crickets sing a beautiful ballade and the trees dance with the wind, a Kingdom lay. This was the Kingdom of Purk. And in Purk, there lived a beautiful Queen and a handsome King. Together they ruled the Kingdom of Purk. And they were happy, because they had each other, and if you get to live with the one you love for the rest of your life, why would you want anything else?
