The Lords of Quarmall

Prince Gwaay and Prince Hasjarl were feuding heirs apparent to the throne of King Quarmal, the Lord of Quarmall. Both Gwaay and Hasjarl were mad with hate for each other and were trying to terminate each other's existence so they may inherit the Kingdom. King Quarmal is felt that neither son was worthy of inheriting the Throne.   To this day, Quarmall is feared and shunned by the above-ground dwellers of Nehwon, and for good reason - they are prone to be abducted and set to work as slaves to maintain and expand the tunnel complex.   In one of the more interesting events of their feud, Prince Gwaay hired the Gray Mouser to be his personal bodyguard and to assassinate his brother. Likewise, Prince Hasjarl hired Fafhrd to do the same. Neither Prince realized that Gray Mouser and Fafhrd were comrades.   King Quarmal had the last laugh by hiring both the Gray Mouser and Fafhrd to rid him of his sons. The King feigned his own death and funeral pyre. The two feuding Princes were both killed by the Gray Mouser and Fafhrd after each Prince ordered them to fight one another. The Gray Mouser and Fafhrd at first obliged their orders and began to fight each other in mock battle which ended with them turning on the Princes and killing them instantly.   King Quarmal sired another son who indeed became the true heir to the Kingdom.
