In
times of old there was a beautiful country far in the east. Surrounded by high mountains in the north,
blue seas in the south, and by two magnificent rivers in
the east and west, this country was a land of plenty and
happiness. Ruled by the wise Nimrod, it was inhabited by brave, industrious,
and contented people.
The wise
King Nimrod and his first wife Eneh had two sons, whom they
named Hunor and Magor.
While growing up, these sons became great horsemen,
mighty warriors, and magnificent hunters, just like their
father. Day after
day they would hunt far and wide across their father’s realm.
It so happened
that one day when they were out hunting with two hundred
warriors, a beautiful white stag suddenly appeared out of
nowhere. He was a splendid animal whose silvery-white coat
and antlers sparkled like a thousand stars.
As soon
as the sons of Nimrod spotted this rare beauty of a stag,
the beast disappeared.
Hunor and Magor were so enchanted by his unusual
beauty that they began a wild chase.
