"Oink" Nordspeak: What fresh hell is this? Another creature to prod me or deduce whether I have died anon? If you wish me dead so much, you will come by that objective at high cost, you mark my words! Curse and damn your eyes!
Gods, what is that figure? It strums a chord my mind has not experienced in many moons. That bare skull, that devil-may-care attitude towards munitions... that grin. Oh, that foul grin -- I thought I had witnessed the worst but Zarongel proves yet again to be the bastard humans report him to be. So... the one called Mogmurch... what will it be?

I may even choose to mitigate your embarrassment these eve. "I await your acceptance of this more than generous offer."

The shells of these green, wretched, filthy monsters are what you have chosen for me to dine on in eternity? Lo, they bring the rope once more. I pray it fits my neck too tightly so that I my finally slip my bonds from this miserable existence. "Oink." |
