Part 14




INTERLUDE #2


Narrator: : Meanwhile, in the reign of Vox Nihili:

Landslantern : Hello peaceful forest creatures. My name is...

? : GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!

Elves : Uh....what's that noise?

Landslantern : Sounds like someone imprisoned in a tomb. Pay it no mind.

Elves : What savagery! What kind of people are you? Lets get the hell out of here!

Landslantern : WAIT! I just want to love you! WHY ARE YOU ON FIRE!!!!!!!!??????

LCQC : Because you exist at 3000 degrees?

Narrator: : Shhh. You're dead.

? : Ow! Who the hell carelessly leaves a statue lying around a darkened tomb anyway. Lorsith Christ, I almost broke a foot.

Landslantern : Who the hell are you anyway? You scared off my magical forest friends.

? : Oh, my name's Rupert. Rupert Lowenstein. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Landslantern : ...

Landslantern : What the hell kind of name is that?

Rupert Lowenstein : You know what, don't judge me, murderer. Just get me out of here, k?







Narrator: : While Landslantern was planning ways to bust Rupert out of the klink, Headshoots was receiving visitors.

Queen Sankis : Oh no, whatever am I to do? I am a young, nubile virginal dwarfess all alone in the big bad haunted zombified volcanic wasteland, just waiting for someone to take advantage of me.

Verviticus: : She must be so scared. I'd be pissing my pants.

Vox Nihili : Grow a pair, pussylips. Hey Sweettits, you can come live in my cave. I'll keep you safe from all the monsters except one.

Queen Sankis : Which one is that?

Vox Nihili : The one-eyed-pocket snake.

Verviticus: : *faints*

Queen Sankis : Oh my! I hope it doesn't bite me in my sleep.

Vox Nihili : ... I can't tell if you're serious or not.

Narrator: : And verily, Headshoots gained a queen and her entourage. For about 2 seconds.

Queen Sankis : These rooms are disgusting. How ever can I be ...served... by strong, muscular sweaty dwarves eager to ...attend... every inch of my eager body, in this shithole? I travelled WEEKS FOR THIS?? RRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vox Nihili : Why is the queen running around naked screaming? I haven't even shown her trouser beard yet.

Moto42 : She grows tired of the painful existence that is life, trapped eternally in a pit of misery and despair. She starves herself to bring herself closer to the gods, that she may learn why they have forsaken us.

Vox Nihili : Wow dude, that's fucked up.

Moto42 : I envy her madness.

Vox Nihili : Oh well, maybe I can hit it if she falls into a coma.





Narrator: : Alas, it was not to be. The royal queen slipped from this mortal world. Meanwhile, outside the fortress, more denizens of the wastelands were about to meet their demise.

Landslantern : Maybe the special friends in this caravan can help Rupert! HI SPECIAL FRIENDS I AM COMING TO LOVE YOU!

Caravan: OH SHI-!



Landslantern : OW! I didn't know fire and bones could bleed! HUURRRGHH*--

Vox Nihili : I hear a battle.... CHARGE MY MINIONS!

Rupert Lowenstein : What's going on out there? Can someone bring me a soda?

OrangeSoda : OH GOD IT ATE MY ENTIRE FACE!

Graspcyclone : TASTES LIKE......well, actually like pubes. Beards are nasty.

Vox Nihili : Noooooooooooo! I will avenge you.... new guy, or whatever your name is.

Graspcyclone : Time for a pulled dwarf sandwich. OM NOM NOM NOM NOM HURGGHHH*---

FebrezeNinja : Yo dog, you eatin my boy. Fuckin stab you homes.

Graspcyclone : HURGGHHH*---

Rupert Lowenstein : Awe....I wanted a soda.

Narrator: : And thus, the reign of Vox Nihili was drawn to a violent, bloody close as he was torn limb from limb by a giant fucking bat. Yet even in the midst of chaos, there remains a beacon of hope: Trailmachines, the Fellowship of Right. The holy artifact of Headshoots. In glorious adamantine, the legacy of Landslantern lives on, as a reminder of the dark times the dwarves of Headshoots have faced....and the darker ones to come.

--e-- I think I'm going to start mixing up the interludes, with some of them being recaps if the person playing that round didn't feel like doing that detailed of a recap, and in cases where they're pretty well covered, just focusing on one particular back story.
