Every day in the country of Ryszard the Taboo is spoken; the Taboo which is never spoken.Within the Kingdom of Ryszard and in the surrounding countries many people believe that Prophesies will guide them. But some Prophesies are incomplete. A single line has become a taboo, a catchphrase, or a child rhyme. Prophesies from different areas are sometimes at odds with one another. The full texts of the original prophecies, and therefore their true meanings, have been lost to time.It is the responsibility of all parents to pass the Taboo on to their children. It is done on the child’s birthday. Which birthday it begins is at the discretion of the parents. The child must be old enough to understand the seriousness of the Taboo but young enough to be indoctrinated. The Taboo is only one line; 7 words. Watch for the Maker of Small Magics.When the parents tell their children the words of the Taboo, they are cautioned never to repeat it except to their own children when the time comes. The children must come to know that the Maker of Small Magics will bring Evil, will cause Evil, is Evil. After the first telling the Taboo is spoken to each child on each birthday until that child comes of age at eighteen years. Every day is someone’s birthday. Every day in the country of Ryszard the Taboo is spoken; the Taboo which is never spoken.
