in the lands below the red castle, people lived in fear. at night, the poettering would spread its dark wings and fly over the barren land, descend on its hapless victims, sink its cruel yellow claws into them, and carry their screaming dying bodies back to his keep
<kyak>
wpwrak must be good at telling bedtime stories to kids :)
<wpwrak>
people spoke in hushed voices about the evil of the poettering. some said, his victims would be spun into the web of the systemd and their grotesquely disfigured corpses would be kept alive by vile binary magic
<kyak>
small kids
<wpwrak>
scared kids ;-)
<kyak>
thanks to you, yes :)
<wpwrak>
some said his victims would at times awaken from their numb agony and make short high-pitched screams that didn't sound like anything ever heard from a living creature. when the wind carried over these sound from the red castle, people averted their eyes and muttered "pulse audio"

some of the old villagers told stories of the time when they were known as the debian, a proud and free people. and they told of the fall, when the debian let in the warlocks of politicking.
<wpwrak>
it is with their help that the poettering rose to power in these lands and now the debian are forced to renounce their beliefs and wear red hats, as the mark of the beast
<wpwrak>
stories told of the fate of the warlocks of politicking. some say they live among the people, doing their evil in secrecy. other say they dwell a the castle and ride forth on moonless nights, mounted on eight-legged beasts that had no color nor would they cast any shadow for they were made of darkness itself
