Subterranean Kingdom Of Shahmaran And The Land Of The Snakes
Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - Wisdom is better than ignorance, but perhaps not always. How far should a person go to become a wise man or woman? There are times when we wish we had never experienced certain events because the price we paid for the wisdom we gained was much too high.

Although he spent the rest of his life as a famous and respected wise man, his heart was always filled with sorrow. No matter how much he tried, he could never forget about the wonderful, intelligent creature he had met and lost.
Shahmaran's legend is not only a tale about wisdom, love, greed, and loss, but also reveals why the snakes became mortal enemies of humans.
