- No
- one
- knows
- why
- the
- ancient
- architects
- and
- engineers
- built
- these
- megalithic
- structures.
- They
- resemble
- the
- legendary
- Stonehenge
- from
- prehistoric
- Terra,
- but
- they
- are
- not
- ordinary
- monuments.
- Commonly
- called
- "faerie
- mounds"
- or
- "dolmens,"
- humans
- instinctively
- avoid
- them.
- Wildlife
- will
- not
- approach.
- The
- muria
- cannot
- enter.
- Even
- nearby
- trees
- lean
- away
- as
- if
- trying
- to
- escape.
- Grey
- is
- one
- of
- the
- few
- able
- to
- manipulate
- the
- monuments'
- energies,
- but
- doing
- so
- entails
- great
- risk
- for
- his
- family,
- friends,
- and
- the
- entire kingdom.
