->''"Way back in time, many hundreds of years ago, Tengel the Evil wandered into the wasteland to sell his soul to Satan. He became the ancestor of the Ice People. Tengel was promised earthly gain in return for at least one of his descendants in each generations becoming the Devil’s servant and do evil deeds. So says the legend. Whether it is true, no one knows. But sometime in the 16th century, a cursed descendant of the Ice People was born. He tried to turn evil into good instead, and was therefore called Tengel the Good. This saga is about his family. Or perhaps it is most of all about the women in his family."''
