To commemorate the white dragon Acessiwal's successful routing of the Knights of the Silver Quill, I offer up the following song parody of Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game," sung from the point of view of one of the Knights themselves.

"Stupid Thing"
We scried on a wyrm
And it looked right back at us.
Still, we thought we'd take it down without any fuss.
We never dreamed we'd get beaten as bad as we did.
And we never dreamed that our DM would just flip his lid.
Now, I-I-I-I-I don't wanna stay and fight.
(Seems like our best bet is to just take flight.)
No, I-I-I-I-I don't wanna stay and fight.
(That frozen breath of his gives us a fright.)
No more.
No more.
What a stupid thing to say,
"Let's fight that wyrm today."
What a stupid thing to try,
It's a sure way to die.
What a stupid risk to take,
Fighting an ice wyrm drake.
What a stupid thing to do,
Bit off more than we could chew.
Now, I-I-I-I-I wanna run away.
(Might be the smartest thing I do today.)
Yes, I-I-I-I-I wanna run away.
(Better to live to fight another day.)
Jettok was slain,
And Dartan lost his best sword.
And all of our best attacks were mostly ignored.
We never dreamed that we'd lose to that half-dragon's dad.
We never dreamed that our DM had joined up with B.A.D.D.
Now, I-I-I-I-I have one thing to say.
(Listen up, dragon, this will make your day.)
Yes, I-I-I-I-I have one thing to say.
(Might not be smart, I'll say it anyway):
%@#$ you!
%@#$ you!

I can't wait to see the repercussions in the sessions to follow!
