The Wands of Raga Dune

The planet Vogguk has been held in the grip of the evil wizard Raga Dune for more than 200 years, slowly deteriorating into rolling deserts with hundreds of species of cacti and mountains of rock and sand. There are few signs of life, except for the Vogguk warriors; Rotsaluk, a fire-breathing dragon; Voggukluk, a deadly spider; Snuklukug, a venomous snake; and various robots.

The most feared, however, is Raga Dune, the evil and omnipresent lord of the planet. He is a jealous entity, not receptive to any hint of challenge to his supreme authority. The inhabitants of the planet try to stay out of his sight.

As a conservationist, you have been sent to Vogguk as part of a research project being conducted by the local university to determine whether the planet can support new forms of vegetation. There are isolated spots on the

planet where huge fores ts exist, indicating that the soil is indeed fertile in those areas.
