Anexciting adventure of a brave girl who found herself in a fantasy world. She has to find a way to stop the cursed beasts awakened after sleeping for a thousand years and coming to life for reasons unknown.

One fine day an ordinary good-looking housewife, Susan, while visiting the museum of arts drops by an old looking glass which, for whatever reason, starts to beckon her up. When she touched the looking-glass, Susan was immediately transported into a magical fantasy world of the Lost Lands. She has been known for her heroic deeds as Susan the Warrior there.


Susan meets a child named Fiora, and the girl takes Susan to her great-grandfather, Maaron. Susan recognizes the Druid as an old acquaintance. Maaron explains that the village was attacked by a Harpy, the legendary winged beast. The strangest thing is that the demon has been a stone statue in the abandoned old fort for thousands of years.


Along with her friends Susan is ready to set forth into a volcano, go to a dungeon and climb floating islands to find out the reason why the Harpy, Naga, the Minotaur and Solidus, one after another, began coming to life from the stone prison and causing chaos in the Lost Lands. Naturally, the creatures must be stopped...

. . . there against the cliff, their astonished eyes saw the deep-shadowed cave and the lifting walls and tower of an immense ruin . . . . The crumbling walls in the foreground gave it a feeling of desolation, of long abandonment. But against the shadow of the cave rose the walls of buildings still strong against time, and in their midst, rising with staunch grace, the swelling curve of a round tower. (Gillmor and Wetherill 31)


The gothic tone of this passage is unmistakable and wholly appropriate. Nowhere else in America do the crumbling walls of immense ruins look out from the deep shadows of caves. Nowhere else in America do stone towers mark the past tenure of an ancient civilization that has left all of us who live here uneasy successors to the land. In the Southwest only the most willful blindness can evade the presence of the region's significant cultural past. The authors of the passage above, describing the discovery by Anglo-Americans of the Cliff Palace ruin at Mesa Verde, certainly felt that presence. And just as certainly, the feeling is eerie and gothic.


Southwestern gothic is the particularly heightened, regional expression of a gothic strain that runs through all of American literature and is especially strong in the literature of the frontier (see Mogen). D.H. Lawrence, in Studies in Classic American Literature, sees at the heart of Anglo-American literature the covert expression of a gothic irony that "has a powerful disintegrative influence" on the Anglo's "white psyche" (51). For Lawrence, America is not the new found land that Anglos would have it be; America is "old, old, wrinkled and writhing in an old skin" (54). Anglos have physically and psychically denied the claims to the land and its spirit of those prior Americans, the Indians. Now, writes Lawrence, the dispossessed presence of Indian culture haunts the umbral edges of the American landscape: it is "full of grinning, unappeased aboriginal demons, too, ghosts, and it persecutes the white men, like some Eumenides" (51).


The force of the gothic irony that Lawrence pursues lies in one of the strongest attractions of the Anglo-American myth: the promise that Anglos can "get away. Away from what? In the long run, away from themselves" (3). The immediate escape is "from the confinements of the European ways of life" (4), in part, escape from the gothic encounters of European experience. To live in Rome is to live in the ruins of a civilization whose greatness is clearly immense and just as clearly past. In other European cities, the difference is not in kind but in degrees. In its cultural sense, literary gothicism arises from a culture's need to "express and relieve its fears about its own concepts of identity" (Day 5). When the ethos of a culture's past is integrated with the ethos of the present culture, the identity of the culture at that moment is very strong, and its literature may produce its definitive epic. In European literature and culture, an example of this epic moment of historically unified, cultural identity is the Rome of Vergil's Aeneid.


Gothicism results when the epic moment passes, and an enormous gulf separates what is now from what has been. Out of the darkness of an incomplete understanding of the culture's own past, the misunderstood ancestral ethos returns in the shapes of gothic forms. These fantastic forms are not transcendent. They are immanent portents of a world that lurks beneath the present reality. We are inescapably a part of the gothic world, but it appears to be wholly, utterly other. Gothicism is not fundamentally European; it defines the experience of any culture when the cyclical rise and fall of its fortunes idles too long after a period of greatness.


Lawrence wrote the final version of Studies in the winter of l922-23 when he lived at a ranch in the foothills north of Taos, New Mexico. The Lawrence ranch sits on the eastern edge of the land of the Anasazi, the Old Ones. The ruins at Mesa Verde and at many other sites throughout the northern tier of the Southwest are the remnants of the Great Pueblo phase of the Anasazi civilization. The Great Pueblopeople were the last stage of a cultural tradition that extends thousands of years into the past and whose many local variations covered the Southwest (see Lincoln 82).


The Great Pueblo ruins evidence a society whose cultural identity was integrated with the ethos of the land itself. Coming to terms with the "spirit of place" that speaks from the landscape is the final goal of Lawrence's quest for a reborn consciousness and culture:


Different places on the face of the earth have different vital effluence, different vibration, different chemical exhalation, different polarity with different stars: call it what you like. But the spirit of place is a great reality. (6)


The mud and stone architecture of the Great Pueblo ruins makes an eloquent statement of cultural harmony with the landscape. Cliff walls and pueblo walls fit each other in seamless curves; many of the pueblos were designed to be cooled by the shadows of cliff overhangs in summer and heated by the sun in winter (see Lumpkins). The Great Pueblos marked the seasons by the play of light and shadows across their walls (see Zeilik). Their culture seems to have understood its place in the scheme of creation.
