Solve the Mystery of a Book called "Balur" and Win 2000 Sapphires!

As a child, Oberon loved to read. He read everything that came his way and loved going to his favorite bookstore. One day, he realized that he had read everything there was in the bookstore. He asked the owner whether there was something that he had not yet read. The owner replied that he had a new book, and handed little Oberon a book called "Balur”. The owner sold it at a discount, for only 10 Sapphires, but he warned Oberon to never open the first page of the book.

Oberon returned home, read the book from cover to cover and was quite happy. He still wanted to know, however, what was on the first page. One day, he could not resist the temptation, and he opened to the first page. What he saw on that page made him drop the book in horror.

What do you think was on the first page?

The authors of the five wittiest replies will receive 2,000 Sapphires each!

As Oberon looked upon the first page he saw a glimpse into the future, 

A world which was ruled by hell bovines... And among those bovines was the cow king, this isn't even the worst part... As he read further down he realized the cow king surpassed him in almost every way. The cow king was immune to lightning, not a particularly useful quality in Stormfall but one to be feared non the less.

The book was written by the king and should be given to all citizens for free.

He realized, at the tender age of 9,  that this mesmerizing book was actually written by the ugliest ogre he'd ever seen.

It proved that those lowly creatures actually already mastered the art of language and happened to be more knowledgeable than him on many subjects.

He then decided, as a matter of pride, to imprison and eradicate them in concentration camps infamously known nowadays as "Balur", the very name of the book which hurt his sensitive ego as a child.

On the first page with bloody letters was written:

'You will be a nuisance to me and my forces ... My shamans have seen your future and have discovered totems which can sicken all the heroes of Stormfall by spreading diseases! Be warned, Oberon. You can make one decision: Will you start a revolt against Balur where you and all your heroes will die, or do you rather die without any other 'innocent' souls?'

As soon as Oberon read the page with the horrific message, he'd see a little rope with a small bottle as necklace attached to the page. The bottle seemed to have green liquid in it, it reminded him of the poisonous wine he got a couple months ago and thus sent it to his sages, to see whether it was dangerous or not.


The end...?

Oberon was horrified to see his own name mentioned on the first page.

He was the unnamed hero of the book "Balur" who saved the the realm of Stormfall .

  there, written on the first page, was a truth, none should know....

Poor Little Oberon,

What a terrible way to learn his memories had been blocked shortly after his birth, and he had been placed in the care of strangers.

His father, one of the Seven Kings, his mother a Goddess, who must hide from all that he, Oberon, was in fact a Demi God, and

the True Heir of Stormfall after all. The few Gods left would kill him quickly if they ever knew, knowing if he reached full growth they

 would be unable as his strength would be too great. How, was a child to keep such a secret? Where, could he hide this book safely

until he reached manhood? Ahhh, the world holds far more secrets, far more terrors, than any child, should ever know....

He opened the first page slowly and looked upon it in shock for there were two futures on the page it said behold the two futures on can exist one can not. It up to you young Oberon you're choices will decide which future will come about. You're journey begins now choose wisely. Now he knew the book was written for him alone. So his journey begins in the far away land of Stormfall.

I've had a good laugh, thank you, my Lords and Ladies!

The winners this time are lords Sifr, JOHNNIE1UK, Ickinick27, lady Constantia and ARCANE781. 


I'd like to reward everyone in this thread, but there is a budget and my master of coin wouldn't appreciate it if I gave away that many Sapphires.

Thank you all, and follow this section of the forums to take part in the next contest!
