The Cornejal kingdom was living its golden days with parties, banquets, tournaments, theater festivals, games and laughs. Lots of laughs. A haven of peace in the world. Despite that, the kingdom did have an army, because historically it had to fight against invaders. The army was an elite that only those who could fly could access. For the rest, were the rest of jobs. Teodoro couldn't fly and so he became the jester, although he'd always wanted to be a soldier.
But the happy days of the kingdom came to an end. An strange army that came from nowhere suddenly attacked the castle and before it had time to react, the battle was lost. Soldiers disappeared in an instant and only King Rui and Teodoro were left.
The desperate king, while being carried away on the shoulders of the victors, implored that someone go to the highest tower to fire the alarm flame to warn the rest of kingdoms that an enemy was attacking.
Teodoro was the last survivor and, despite being just a lowly jester, wanted to try the complex task...
Teodoro can be moved horizontally, can jump and can make other movements that he'll tell you as the game advances.
