[QUOTE="Cassandra, post: 4567578, member: 18157"] [b]Celebration continues[/b] Well, the long celebration of the Overlord's birthday is going into its final weekend, and the minions are hanging in there. They are cautiously optimistic that they may survive the month with no losses, since the Overlord has seemed to appreciate his presents so far. The minions began the festive season by gather en masse and serenading the Overlord with [URL="http://www.faqs.org/faqs/music/birthday-dirge-faq/"]The Birthday Dirge[/URL]. He was very pleased, and commented "Ah it warmed the EO's heart to hear his minions singing the birthday song for him. Really cheered me up for the night." ["EO" is the minions' friendly nickname for the Evil Overlord.] They followed this up with an assortment of presents. In fact, the roster of gifts could be set to another well-known tune. As of yesterday, this was the list: [INDENT]On the eleventh day of the Overlord's Birthday, his minions gave to him... Eleven wraiths a' writhing Ten totems screaming, Nine lepers leaping, Eight golden thumbscrews, Seven cat-o-nine-tails, Six TPKs, Five unicorn horns, Four accursed tomes, Three sacrificial paladins, Two squawking crows, And a gnome's head on a tree limb.[/INDENT] (These are genuine gift ideas put forth by actual minions. I'm not making this stuff up!) Alas, the Overlord's Birthday celebration lasts fourteen days, not twelve, so the minions still have to come up with three more gifts and it's already past sundown on the twelfth day. They may not all make it through this after all.... [/QUOTE]
