Xantarra's Magic

The orcs defeated the human villagers of Hanu after a long war. The peace treaty requires that the villagers send three of their children every year to be slaves of the orcs. The children are chosen in a lottery. Rammen blackmails the lottery official into drawing his twin nephews' names. The twins only hope of rescue depends on their peculiar cousin Hentta. Hentta sets out with the boys' mother to seek help from the haughty centaurs who live in the forest. Not only do the two women encounter centaurs along their journey but fearsome minotaurs and orcs as well. Meanwhile, the orcs and the minotaurs have secretly declared war on each other, drawing the humans, centaurs, and fauns into a final showdown between the species.
