t all began one typical warm summer day at the family cottage when young Mindy Magee settled down with a book in her favorite chair under a nice shade tree not far from the nearby lake. Before long, she became a little sleepy and momentarily closed her eyes. Startled by something next to her, she opened her eyes and was confronted by a large odd looking golden colored bird standing directly in front of her. Just as she was about to run away, the bird slowly waddled toward her and introduced itself. Standing there in disbelief, she learned the bird, called a Gruck, had been sent by Princess Min to invite her to a special party at a castle in the land of Zot.

Mindy didn't know what to think. The bird seemed real enough, but on the other hand she'd never known a bird to talk. She decided to ask her parents for permission to attend the party. To Mindy's surprise, her parents had no problems with her attending a party in Zot with a Gruck.

As Mindy and the Gruck slowly make their way towards the distant castle in the land of Zot, Mindy comes into possession of the beautiful 'Picture Stone' and soon discovers its magic. Once they arrive at the castle, Mindy discovers she has been gifted with an ability so special, she makes a vow never to forget the power of her gift and the importance of using it wisely.

Perhaps you too will discover you've been gifted with Mindy's special power.
