Once upon a time, Faltarsia was one land rich in magic and knowledge. Humans lived side by side with dragons, elves, dwarves and goblins, harnessing the power of the fallen stars given to them by the great sun god Huluru to perform great feats of magic.
Until one day, a human wizard sought more power and turned dark. This fallen star called itself Hesperus the Foul and vowed to devour all the stars in Faltarsia in his quest to overthrow the sun, killing and destroying everything in his path to do so. And with his goblin armies fuelled by dark magic, he nearly succeeded.
Only a chosen one, a boy from Earth who managed to find a portal to Faltarsia stood in his way. This boy's name was Craig Jennings, a high school student from Wobbegong, Australia. A surfer and guitarist, his rebellion against the Foul inspired more to stand with him, and with his army of knights, mages and dwarves, he slew Hesperus and released the stolen magic back to Faltarsia, earning the title of Craig The Champion.
His mission accomplished, Craig returned to his world in peace, eager to return to high school and his girlfriend Vanessa. He is remembered in Faltarsia as the hero above all other heroes, a paragon of virtue and glory.
This is not his story.
This is the story of what came after the story. With him, his wife Vanessa and his sons.
A hero in waiting, born to a father that would do anything to save him from it.
