Tales From the Court of the Crimson King
Publisher Description
When a mysterious Wanderer arrives at the Court of the Crimson King, deep in the Realms of Chaos where time does not exist, the Court's bored inhabitants eagerly accept his bargain; for every story they relate to him, the stranger will tell a tale in return. This strange collection of people have an equally strange set of tales to tell; the Fire-witch, the Jester, the Juggler, the wise men…and especially the Crimson King himself, all take their turn. They are delighted to hear the varied stories that the Wanderer shares with them--such a relief from the grinding boredom of the ages in a place where nothing ever happens--but none realize what the true cost of this unexpected entertainment will be when the final tale is told!
