---STORY---
Bowser discovered an ancient text that told of a world in an existing parallel dimension. According to legend, it was known as "The Fantasy Realm", as called by the ancient Toad sages of the Mushroom Kingdom. As he skimmed through the writings,the evil Koopa king dreamt of a mighty empire to build in the Fantasy Realm, one unopposed by anyone.Then, he would return to conquer the coveted Mushroom Kingdom, and later,... become supreme overlord of the world! The portal to the Fantasy Realm is the legendary Abyss of Fantasy, which was sealed long ago by a great avalanche. Seizing such a rare opportunity, Bowser ordered his squadrons to search for the hidden portal.

One day, Mario was taking a walk through the woods until he sighted one of the squadrons. By coincidence, this particular group discovered the Abyss's location. Mario listened through the ongoing gossips between the squad members. He learned about Bowser's ambitious plans and vowed to end his madness."Not even Mario could stop us," cackled the squad leader.Our hero waited until the big koopa himself, along with his other search parties,arrived.They entered a dark cave where the Abyss was sealed. There was nothing, except they were standing on a pile of rocks. "Now, how do I get inside?", grumbled Bowser.Suddenly, Mario jumped on Bowser's head and landed on the pile of rocks. "Hello, King Bowser!" greeted the cheerful plumber. "ARRRGGGHHH! It's Mario!" bellowed the evil king."How dare you use my head as a trampoline! Seize him!" The horde of koopas dashed towards their foe until the pile of rocks finally collapsed. They were all last seen descending into the never-ending darkness...

After Mario defeated Bowser in the Light Fortress, the pit into which Bowser had fallen unleashed an intense ray of light."UUUNNNNGAAAHHHH! MY EYES!"Bowser yelled. The king quickly climbed out of the hole, and growled,"YOU! You are much more clever than I thought, my irritating nemesis. It seems you already know about the 3 beacons that are the key of returning home. Well,I will see to it that you will never make it to the Castle of Demise.BWAHAHAHA!" Mario broke into a sinister grin, as if he himself had an evil plot. The evil king suddenly realized,"Uh oh!Ummmmm... you didn't hear that! That was all lies! I'm crazy, see?I haven't took my medications this morning. You realized that, right?" But nothing seemed to faze the plumber."Great! I screwed up, didn't I?"shouted Bowser. Almost immediately,our hero bolted for the exit of the fortress."HEY! Get back here, you little pipsqueak!"

Bowser fell into the bright chamber that is the hiding place of the second beacon!"You will pay for this, Mario!"The plumber exited the dark castle and attacked several wandering koopas. They surrendered and told Mario where the last beacon was. Mario had set a course for Death Cavern, the final resting place for all who dared to face the dangers within. Deep inside was the other side of the Abyss of Fantasy, the portal back home.After activating the final beacon, our hero was determined to lure Bowser and his cronies back to the Abyss so they may never establisgh dominion over the Fantasy Realm. Little did he knew, Bowser's vengeance would be horrible and swift.

---Final Story---
The cave was flooded by the beacon's light, and a door opened. Mario walked inside. The Abyss of Fantasy was up ahead. The creatures tried to stop him from reaching the portal, but they were too weak to carry on.Just like in the Mushroom Kingdom, the Abyss was sealed by a pile of rocks.However, Bowser was standing at the other edge of the Abyss."You made me furious! I will bury you in this avalanche! Then, no one could stop me as I build my glorious empire!BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!Prepare to meet your doom!"The unthinkable happened. A clone of Bowser appeared next to the original. This new technique was startling,and disturbing, news to Mario. "Mamma Mia!" "MWAHAHAHA! Scared, are you whelp?" Who will be victorious?

Level 11- Abyss of Fantasy

---Ending---
"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!"cried the king as he fell into the dark pit. Mario jumped into the darkness and vanished. Meanwhile, Luigi discovered the two arch-foes."Mario! Wake-a up-a!"Both came to their senses."NNOOOOO!! IT'S NOT FAIR!IT'S NOT FAIR!"bawled the king. "Better-a luck, next-a time, Bowser!"shouted Mario triumphantly."Here-a we go!" The Mario Brothers raced off back to the castle to tell Princess Peach about the Fantasy Realm.




---HINTS---
1. You may find the levels difficult as you play. Try to gain the 1-Up Mushrooms scattered in each level.

2. There are no goal posts. Each level ends with a boss battle against Bowser. Since this is the case, gather as many coins as you can to earn extra lives.

3. The Abyss of Fantasy is no place for noobs. If you are an experienced Mario player, you shouldn't have too many problems in finishing the levelsets.But if you're stuck, e-mail me at chaos2691@yahoo.com.

4. If you have trouble with some boss battles, here is a suggestion. As Bowser hovers in the air, move past him from underneath. You will notice that he will stop moving forward and falls straight down before he comes after you again. This tactic will be useful for certain boss battles.

5. To jump higher, hold 2nd after jumping on an enemy or a music block.

6.Sometimes, it's best to be just Mario rather than Super Mario...

7. I wouldn't get past the levels by walking on the ceilings if I were you.
