Petra's having a hard time at school. She's being bullied, and having visions of a cloaked creature with glowing red eyes. Her craft project is out to get her, and her favourite teacher has been replaced by a sword-wielding lunatic who likes to dress as a barbarian and tell tall tales. Petra's afraid the barbarian's insanity is catching because she's beginning to believe the answer to all her problems might just lie within his stories.
