A message to the Wee-folk.

[Hearth 1082]

[!] A simple parchment would be nailed to the notice-board, the handwriting on it would appear to be imperfect- but by no means rushed.

My dear Gardners and Peregrins, Applebottoms and Applefoots, Mowoods, Greenholms, Sackvilles and Goodbarrels (and the many of you I have yet to formally meet); Many of you I am aware are rightfully concerned over the status of our Lord Knox and the events following the... undesirable outcome of the Knoxmas tree-decorating festival. While I wholeheartedly apologise for the abrupt end that came following the-- quarrel between myself and the being, I speak true when I say that my actions were just and necessary. The being claiming to be our dear Knox was in-fact merely another deceptive creature posing as he whom we hold dear in order to maintain influence over this world; and while it is true that he has been spoken to historically have aided us in our voyage to this beautiful land- the burning touch of Knoxscalibur that branded the fiend's face is proof enough that they are indeed not- and never were- our mighty Lord Knox...

 

I know not where our beloved God dwells- or whether we shall be graced to see his form wander our village as in days of yore again- but I can speak with trueness in my heart that Knox's honour has surely been restored on this  fateful day; No longer will a false idol toy with his loyal followers- no longer will a false idol drink our booze and take what they please from our mighty-harvests- our Lord Knox's good name is now back in his own rightful hands, and I shall fight to keep it that way.

 

Yours truly, King Cyris Collingwood.

 

PS: No harm, nor cruel words are to be laid upon Miss Applebottom, while she may still press her faith unto this questionable figure- she is both legally and morally innocent in this.

“And you, Cyris, are insane.” Alfie remarked with disgust.

Filibert Applefoot sighs "S'op callin' yehrself ah king, t'is jus' embarrasin'"

"So people will believe t'e Knox t'at brough' us all t'ose wares 'n possesses Godly magic es a phony, bu' believe Cyris when 'e claims e's been named 'King' by a 'Knox' we've never even seen?" Jeannette Applebottom shook her head.

Turnip nodded as he read the letter, grinning once more. "Yeh tell 'em, yer hoighness!"

[nerdy 250]

"Me t'inks some'un got t'eir bloomers en eh twest when our good Lord Knox declared t'em eh false prophet..." Meemaw Applebottom would wabble away, shaking her head disapprovingly.

[OddOllie123 255]

"W'at in t'e name of Knox 'as been 'appenin'...." Is all the family-centric man would say as he hobbled back to his bed. Finally finishing reading the pile of letters which were sat upon his desk- shortly passing out on his bed after.
