    Book 1

    The legendary Knight Sir Daniel Fortesque. Born around 1250, died 1286 at the battle of Gallowmere. Legend has it that after defeating the evil Sorcerer Zarok at the battle of Gallowmere he rose from the dead a century later to destroy Zarok once and for all. It is said, that in times of great need, he will return again to free the land from evil.

    Book 2 - Kraken

    The great Kraken, that could smash a boat between its fearsome jaws - some still suppose that the deepest seas still hold creatures like this great beast. Fisherman, Phil McCaven, caught this example off the coast of Bognor Regis in 1774.

    Book 3 - Zarok monster

    Despite assuming many monstrous forms, the evil sorcerer Zarok was reputedly a coward. Legend has it that the Great Knight Sir Daniel Fortesque vanquished this creature in 1386.

    Behind the scenes

    Version specific differences

    In the Spanish version of the game, the last sentence in the book about the Kraken is missing. This leaves out information about its capture by fisherman Phil McCaven.

    The Portuguese translation for the book about Zarok says "Chave de Porta Principal" (Front Door Key) at the end of the entry. This is because the next string in the game's text file is the name of that item. The item's name was thus mistakenly duplicated into the translation for the book:
