The sun was shining bright upon the white sands of the beach. The air smelled of salt, fresh molasses cookies, and the fires of war! A horde of barbarians stood on one end shouting their war cries and bashing their weapons together, excited for the coming battle. On the other stood the glorious Knights of Bernthal and their Prophet Xronad the Xombie. The barbarians charged and he bellowed a deep laugh as he lifted his big ass battle axe out of the sand. He turned to his knights, "Come on lads! After this the drinks are on Luke! Bahaha!" He spun around swinging his axe with him and decapitated two of the barbarians immediately. The battle was over before anyone knew it and the bloody field became a beach party of bonfires, kegs, and scantly clad women. XombieXronad sat on a throne of pillows and women feeding him cookies as he amazed them with stories of his mighty deeds. CoolHandLuke approached with a mug in hand, "Xronad, you sexy -blam!-! There's an old friend here to see you!" As he rejoined the festivities, a woman in a tattered black cloak with a large pointed hat stepped forward with a look of disgust on her pale face. "Nil!" The Xombie shouted, "You are VERY overdressed for this occasion!" The witch looked around the scene before her, fangs bared, and turned her red eyes back to Xronad, "So this is your idea of heaven? How very...quaint..." "Oh lighten up, sun shine! Have a seat! Grab a dri-" "I don't have much time," the witch interrupted, "you've been deceived. You're dead." "Undead," Xronad responded, mouth full of cookies. "No, you're just dead, this is a dream to keep you complacent. Think about it, I know thats a lot to ask of you, but try to remember our last conversation." Xronad laughed, "Ok sure! I'll humor you! We were in your new palace, it was very cold and empty, and you had this Elsa thing going on." "I don't understand that reference," Nil crossed her arms. "Then what? Hurry, things are already starting to get weird." "Weird?" Xronad looked around. His comrades and lady friends had all disappeared. "I... remember talking? About a vacation...no, a nap?" The ocean water turned black and dark tentacles rose from the depths. Nil shivered, "I really need to leave before it finds me, but that Nil isn't me. Think of her as my evil twin." The sky turns red and begins to rain blood. "Huh," Xronad reached for more cookies and found only Thin Mints, "[b]WHAT THE HELL IS THIS[/b]." He stands, crushing the crackers in his mighty fist. "That story would take too long to tell," Nil grabs Xronad by the shoulders, "The contract you signed gives you the power to leave whenever you want, but she's been messing with your mind, keeping you nice and happy. Making you forget. So wake up!" Suddenly Nil vanished before his eyes and everything returned to normal...or as normal as a dream can be...
