*** PROLOGUE ***

My name is MADDEN. I was trained to be a WARRIOR. I had always loved

traveling. I also love adventures. I heard of an evil that plagued

the world. The people called this evil... the CLAN of DARKNESS. I never

dreamed that I MADDEN would become an Evil being. This is my story.

I searched the world over for a bunch of people called the "SHINING

FORCE" They were dedicated in defeating the evil that plagued the world

at that time. I traveled to a town called MAKKEN to get info on this

"SHINING FORCE."

"Eh?"

The old man asked. Then the old man continued, "The 'SHINING FORCE?'

You are asking for? Oh yes. They were here two days ago. They were

Headed for the town of RAMMORA in the far north. You can catch them

quicker if you travel 'DEVIL'S PASS.' I hear it's dangerous on that

trail. The Devils are known to attack strangers. Be careful.

"Thank you old man."

I thanked him and headed north through "DEVIL'S PASS."

as I traveled the pass, I encountered numerous enemies. I thought I

Was a goner! What found out was surprising! They let me pass. The

DEVILS saw right through me. Then they spoke to me.

"You are the CHOSEN ONE! You may pass!"

I was the "CHOSEN ONE?" I questioned myself. I had no idea what that

Meant. I decided not to dwell on it at that time. I had finally caught

Up with those heroes called "The SHINING FORCE." I talked to their

leader WILLIAM.

"Yes?" WILLIAM asked.

"My name is MADDEN. I am a WARRIOR. I want to join up to

fight evil!"

WILLIAM looked at MADDEN and then spoke.

"I am sorry MADDEN, but we are full. We have thirty members and

we can't take anymore. I am sorry. Plus I sense you have an evil

aura over you, so I refuse to let you join. I am sorry.

Good bye."

Goodbye? That's all I get. And what's this evil aura over me?

However, as I walked away from that place and I traveled the world

to find my purpose... I was led to an evil ORB! It was the ORB of

DARKNESS! It led me to an old shrine that the DEVILS were

protecting. They stopped me.

"Who are you?"

They asked. I thought for a bit and then answered.

"I am the CHOSEN ONE! Something here has led me to this place."

I replied to them.

"Very well. Enter."

As I entered the shrine, it was small. It was home to the ORB of

DARKNESS! I picked up the ORB. It's power surged through my body.

I felt my body changing! Soon I had a new appearance. My appearance

was this way: My head resembled a dragon with three horns on top.

My Body resembled that as a Bull. My legs and feet resembled that

of an Ox. My claws on my feet and my hands were that of the largest

wolf. And there were wings on my back that resembled as Eagle's

wings. The DEVILS in the chamber bowed to me. Finally, they found

the LORD of DARKNESS.

"Call me LORD MAGGUS! Today, all Humankind and those allied with them

shall perish!"

I told them. They praised me saying,

"Praise LORD MAGGUS! Down with the LIGHT CLAN!"

My troops and myself left the shrine and found the 'SHINING FORCE'

and attacked them with a vengeance! At that time, WILLIAM had found

The HOLY SWORD! The battle was fierce! Finally, WILLIAM used the

HOLY SWORD and sealed LORD MAGGUS into stone. When that happened, all

The DEVIL GENERALS and the DEVILS were turned to stone. To keep the

DEVILS from escaping, they built a fortress to prevent the DEVILS

from escaping. A Magical seal was placed to keep the DEVILS sealed.

Now with the evil gone, and the fortress built. The heroes of the

'SHINING FORCE' went home.

Now...

75 years has passed. Now the story of LORD MAGGUS now continues...

Next Episode: "The Chosen One!"

Next: "SARAH, the Grand daughter of WILLIAM the HERO, is chosen

To find out why enemies has attacked the outside gate of the

Fortress! And SARAH assembles a small team of heroes known as the

'SHINING FORCE! Be there!
