There was once a Cavern King who had a little son named Guld. When this king, whose kingdom was among the rocks and in deep cavernous regions underground where kobolds dwelt, was called to go to a far country, he left little Guld to be king in his place when he was grown old enough and wise enough. The kobolds agreed that they would hold together as a nation and that they would keep all the old king's laws until little Guld should come to the throne. In the meantime, little Guld was left with his foster mother Rhea, who was loving and careful. His bed and his chair were taken into her house, which was really a wing of the royal castle, but the castle itself was closed. To her was also entrusted the king's crown, but this she hid away so secretly that nobody could guess where it was kept.
