Story

Dizzy Legends: The Lord of Darkness
===================================
A long time ago, countless years before the time of Dizzy and the present Yolkfolk, evil and oppression were the watchwords of the land. Common yolkfolk were suppressed, beaten and tortured. The land itself had a dark dank air of fear and terror, and an oppressive, twisted, and paranoid leader ruled with an iron fist...

Chapter 1: The Lord of Darkness
===============================
Demetrius, King of the Yolkfolk, has ruled over the land for over 20 years. Over the years opposition to his rule has slowly grown, and now a small group of his subjects are starting to vocally demand a change of ruler. Getting ever more paranoid and fearful, The King has started to believe that his stepbrother Dexter is orchastrating a plot to remove him from the throne.

In a carefully planned dawn raid, Demetrius has Dexter captured and brought to the Royal Castle of Illumination, where Demetrius has him thrown in the eerie dungeons of the castle. In the depths of paranoia and fearing that his relative must be plotting to forcibly replace him, The King gives orders that Dexter should remain wandering in the labyrinth of dungeons for the rest of his life...

EDIT:: fixed in v1.01 - all it was missing was one line of code. ah well, i guess in a game of this size and complexity we were never going to get rid of all bugs.

EDIT2:: v1.01 uploaded to yolkfolk.com, link restored in main post
