In a land ruled by a mad sorcerer, the very ground is consumed by the same crystals that give the sorcerer his power.
Threatened by total destruction the inhabitants of the village nearby rebelled and ousted the powerful sorcerer. With him gone, the crystals stopped growing and peace returned.
Besides the occasional lynching, the villagers are a happy and fun loving people, and a large rollercoaster was build through the old sorcerer's mansion to remember his banishment. And for good old family fun.
