About the land of Xanth
Xanth ( pronounced Zanth) is a magical land, not at all like Mundania where
we live. Xanth is shaped like the mundane state of Florida but that
is where the similarity ends. Xanth receives magic from the Demon
X(A/N)th . Before him Xanth was a magic less
land just like Mundania. The Demon X(A/N)th
was trapped deep under the ground and as time passed some of his magic
issued up through the ground in a sort of solid fountain that reaches the
surface as magic dust, Which is distributed by the citizens of the Magic
Dust Village. With the Demon's magic new things started to happen,
Dragons and Manticores appeared. Plants began to change (eggplants
really started producing eggs, and Shoe Trees really started growing shoes).
Love springs started to come into existence, causing otherwise incompatible
species to mate and breed new hybrids. So came Centaurs, Mermaids, Naga's,
Harpies and many more. The human people of Xanth developed magic
talents, one per person, no two being the same. The range of these
talents is from spot on the wall (useless talent) to magician quality (King
Dor can talk to the inanimate). Xanth is a land filled with puns
and everything is taken literally. Dreams are delivered by night
mares and babies by the stork (the adult conspiracy will not let children
know more about babies). Xanth is a wonderful land of magic where
Com-Pewter really can change reality, but we of Mundania cant really go
there all we can do is read the books the muses have let slip over to us.
