Synopsis
Story 1: The two brothers, Rannus and Alvus, find themselves in a maze with stony walls. Man-eating plants, explosive monsters, and other dangers haunt them, but they do not give up and make it to the palace. At the palace, however, their troubles are not over, because another evil awaits them...the very reason why they ended up in that maze in the first place.
Story 2: Two towns are competing, even with their different economies, but one of them takes the lead and forbids the other to produce a certain super substance that boosts the animals’ intelligence and strength. Will Jasper discover the big, dark secret of what is really going on? And will he defeat whoever is behind this?
Story 3: Barthor has trained for this day all his life: The day the tournament begins. The tournament consists of jousting, sword fighting, swimming, and archery. He stands a chance, because he is one of the best. But there is another character with a strong desire to win as well: Malofact, a man who holds nothing back and cheats his way through the matches. Will Barthor still be able to win, despite his cheating opponent? Start listening and find out!
