The Druid General, ordered by her lord, approached the town in the formerly unclaimed lands. The Amazon queen, formidible as the dragon, had left the land, for reasons of her own,
Gruiyth considered his options. His bats and centaurs wanted battle, and the Gnome town was owned so recently by the humans. Fly, bats, fly, and cast the die.

So next turn (15) I'll send, say, 10 thousand scro-- ahem ... gold in exchange for my possession and we can put this all to rest. Sound good?
That sounds lovely. Absolutely lovely. The loveliest.
You'll want to remind me. I do best with reminders.
Can you throw in a single scrotum? One that you feel best represents the Rangers as a people? I'm scrapbooking.
I'm not sure I'm allowed to post but the Painted Dragon said he wanted a reminder.
We will be issuing the exchange order this turn, as agreed.
Enclosed in the transfer is one (1) Minotaur scrotum, Mint Quality. You are sure to find the coloration, texture and supple pliability of this rare item to be of such quality as to make the most distinguished collector proud.
(I wanted to send a mammoth scrotum but she shipping costs were just excessive)

Yahtzee. I had already forgotten, but have since updated orders.
The minotaur unit will suffice. Unfortunately, a mammoth scrote would not fit on the page. I will check again once my collection is complete and we might use one of those for the cover. Next up is rock golem. Do they have one? Is it flinty? Pretty close to schist, amirite?

Never thought of Rock Golem scrotes. They certainly would make good ballast for my sailing ships and, I am sure, fetch a pretty penny at the collector's market. I will have to see if my wizards can conjure a few specimens up.

Do let me know. I have it in my head that they look like those click-clack kinetic things. Not sure hie to better describe that.

That was an enjoyable read - you should write poetry it was truly a nifty bit of prose.
The only thing I like more than tales being told around a table filled with ale is women, scrotums, and sticking my cutlass through undead corpses. I will plan to read a little of your poetry at your funeral. I hope I will be able to see the papers through the clouds of smoke as your empire burns around me.
You really should have taken me up on my peace offering after you tried your sneaky trick with my lands. Suggest you suck in your scrotums tight and try to keep em safe - the Pirates be hunting.

Thanks for the kind words, it kind of wrote itself and was true to "real" events (based on a true story) except disclosing the Pirate King real name.
Oh, the Undead don't have funerals. For that matter, they don't have scrotums or other soft tissue that don't make the crossing. (Anticipates brain joke.) We're pretty much just skin and bones, sometimes just bones. Good news is we don't get heart disease.
Your reference to my "sneaky trick" refers to me wanting to keep my town, right?

My message from early in the game couldn't have been more clear:
PI - ALL
Anyone steps foot in Nyvaria without permission ... and I will cut off your scrotum, dry it in salt, cure and waterproof it with oil, and then sew it in as part of a sail for one of my pirate ships. If I am in a particularly foul mood ... I will dye it pink and write your name on it before it gets stitched into the sail.
Don't say you weren't warned.
A reminder that sailing the seas is a risky endeavor without some form of arrangement. I suggest you use your tongue before it gets cut out.
Habeus "The Terror of the Seas" Corpus
Please don't say you weren't warned.
Unless I have invited you to join me on one of our famous Pleasure Cruises... trying to screw a Pirate will get you the pointy end of the cutlass every time. Not even the most deviant amongst us enjoys the pointy end...it hurts as you know.
If I feel inspired I may write a poem about my new Palace ... it is a tale worth telling.
P.S. I write this missive from the cabin of my Flagship. My boots are resting on the top of my magnificent newly hand crafted desk ... the one made from the timbers of your sunken galleons. They still smell a little of the undead but I have come to quite enjoy the stench.
