Look around. You will see Borderland on every side. Centuries ago, Satan, the prince of this world, reached out to destroy a small country called Gyr Dan Felde. Gry Dan Felde was so lovely that its name meant Heaven On Earth. When Satan struck Gyr Dan Felde, he was opposed by the prayers of two faithful warriors. Gry Dan Flede miraculously slipped form Satan's grasp, but it also disappeared from the sight of the outside world to become Borderland. Seven hundred years after its mysterious disappearance, Borderland was almost forgotten. Then God stretched out His hand to take it back.
This story can be taken as an allegory of a Western Christian Church that has forgotten its roots, as a setup for a series of adventures (which has never been published to my knowledge), as an intriguing story in its own right about the danger of deception, and as a elaborate embellishment of the classic fairy tale, "Puss in Boots". The story depicts a demon at work, luring his victims into a web of deception. Once they are dependent of the fruit of their deception - to the point where they are ready to do *anything* to avoid exposure, they are ripe for destruction. But God is also at work, giving those that turn to Him the Grace to step out of the cleverly woven traps that have ensnared them - frustrating the plans of Hell.
