Prologue: The Greatest Story Ever Told

My mother used to tell me stories as a child. Great and wondrous tales of knights and dragons, space-flight and star-pilots...but my favorite was always the one with the man who could fix anything, go anywhere at anytime, and be who ever he chose to be. My mother called him the Fixer, in my mind though, he was the Doctor. And each person he saved was a patient ailing from something only he knew how to cure. I wanted to be like that man, being able to mend and repair everything from a broken toy to a broken planet. More than anything I wanted him to be real, so he could mend my mother's broken heart.

My father had been a pilot in His Majesty's fleet during the time before the humiliating collapse of His Grace, Lord Inmer III's rule. Her Majesty, Lady Jaliena, overthrew her royal husband and his legions by destroying his reign from the inside out. One by one she corrupted or killed any being who would support Lord Inmer. All until only her husband stood in the way of her rule. Then she murdered him. My father had been the last man to stand between Jaliena and her husband, our king...but it was not to be a good or just day in Kyboeria.

My mother said that was when the Fixer first appeared on Kyboeria. He told the king's pregnant sister-in-law, Talia, that her child would be the heir to not only the planet Kyboeria, but to an entire galaxy. He instructed her to hide away her child until he or she had reached an age of understanding. The Fixer took the child, at the age of 4, to a new family. The child and the family swore to never speak of the child's royal past or family until the proper age was reached. The child was to keep his or her head down and be good and kind, so that one day he or she could serve justice to the Queen of Kyboeria.

It is said, among the people of Kyboeria, that the child was a girl and that she lives on as one of the commoners. Day and night the streets are watched by Jaliena's minions. She is ever vigilant against the Child of the Throne. She awaits the day that she catches the royal child, because only then will she truly be the ruler of Kyboeria. My favorite part of the story is always the part my mother makes up. Adventures of grandeur and danger, as the prince or princess tries to regain their rightful place. No one knows what will happen to the Royal Child of Kyboeria because it has not yet come to be. That is why the story of the Doctor and Kyboeria is truly the greatest story ever told.
