The High-Priestess Appears.

[Kaiser 2347]

 

Under the watchful eye of the statue of the Guardian of the Harvest, as the night dims, and the stars beckon, Lady Astervillis comes from the village to the Pumpkin Throne.

 

Sitting upon the Orange Throne, she waves her hand to the Knight Captain Garret, motioning him to begin.

 

"Ladies an' Gentle'alflings, we come 'ere, unde' the Guardian o' the Harves' ta hono' Astervillis as the new High Priestess. May her rule be tha' o' piety, an' be kind ta the people o' the religion."

 

He turns, as he drops the Pipeweed Crown upon her head the crowd cheers, ringing out all through the Dale, and to the Cloud Temple. The new High Priestess was named. The reformed religion of the pagans of the Dale has finally come- Reformed Pumpkinism.

 

The Priestess adjusts her hair as he raises a finger to address the crowd of onlookers.

"Le' it be known! This is a new chapte' fer the 'alflings of the Dale! A new book, even! My firs' action ass High Pries'ess is ta fully resta'e the Pumplar Order! Their pilgrimage up the beanstalk will be their decidin' matte' of their piety, an' then they shall drink the Holy Lager o' the Pump'in ta be welcomed inta the orde', an' ta the reformed religion! Garret Pumpernickle shall be Knight Captain, and he shall instill recrui'men' along with Fumble o' Willowbottom!"

 

She clears her throat as the crowd cheers, but her raised hand has then all quiet, slowly, for her to talk above them.

 

"My next decree be tha' the Holy Gourd, the holy scripture o' the reforme' religion be written, in ol' Pumpkinish! This shall be given ou' in due time!"

Finally she waves her hand as she states her last will of the people.

"Finally, the creation o' the Holy Pumpkin Empire! The H.P.E Shall be forme' ta do the will o' the Harves' Guardian, an' take care o' the people. I hereby announce tha' Elder Fumble o' Willowbottom shall be crowne' Emperor on this day!"

 

And with this note, the crowd erupts into great yelling, and great cheering, as the reformation has come at long last!
