    Daughter of Dichol

    About this ebook

    In the kingdom of Kale, long before the gods came to dwell among men, and the waters of the beautiful lake graced every home, there were those who knew what an abomination was.
    These people told these stories to their children who in turn told the children of their children. It's because of them that I learned of the tale of Lando and Dichol, a story about two gods who visited the kingdom of Kale to dwell among mortals.
    No one knows what caused the sisters to be like night and day, but my Great Grandmother knows what they do not speak of.
    So, she speaks and I listen...and sometimes, like right now, I ask..."What if it's not just a story?"
