The Black Mountain

Many-many years ago there were two dwarfs’ villages close to the Black Mountain: the dwarfs of the 1st village were red and of the second - blue. The red were very strong and quick, and the blue – wise and smart. Two kings ruled there: a decisive and vindictive Kronig of the red and kind and fair Mar-Thoon of the blue. Kronig was tall and lean, with mean and tenacious look from shaggy and bushy eyebrows and long black hair. Mar-Thoon loved to eat and proudly wear long red cape, fully covering his big belly. His smoothly combed beard felled on his stomach and shiny bald head reflected sunny beams and moon shine with the same strength.

The red dwarfs lived in a big wooden house with a gabled iron roof and the blue each lived in own small and cozy house made of white stones, collected around the lake.

Kronig had just one daughter named Clia, and Mar-Thoon only a son called Kreggs. The children were complete opposites of their parents: Clia - blue-eyed blonde, affectionate and cheerful, and Kreggs - a smart player with the ball and a successful hunter for rhinoceros beetles. He's the only one left to fight toxic mantis and killed him after hours of fierce battle, braiding his blue-black hair in a thick tuft on his head
