______________________________
Lines of Legions are marching over the Incans lands. A civlian is sent back to Barcleona to tell King Solver what have they seen there:
"Your Majesty King Solver,
This land was surely created by the allmighty gods, and it looks like they still live here. Unlike our land, this one has life everywhere, deer and beer are running. Our people were amazed bby how many long trees do they have there - one of our Warriors decided to chop one down. The tree fell down, and we could see that it's full with fruits, that have never been seen by anyone else. Noone was brave enough to taste them, so here are some, so that you could give them someone.
Also note that..."
"Stop!", screamed Solver, "Show me the fruits!"
"Immediately, Your Majesty."
Walking backwards and bowing Alfonco left the throne room. A moment later a slave came in, holding dishes with fruits. Solver took one to examine it, and realised that the letter speaks truth, for such fruits have never been seen by the mankind. However, something needs to be done with this, so Solver ordered:
"Bring Aztlikjamanpapl here, the Slave we recently captured!". As the order was executed, Solver ordered Aztlikjamanpapl to eat the fruit, what he did. Seeing he doesn't die, King tasted the fruits himself.
"Oh my God! That's something I've never felt, and hardly there's anything that can taste better than this. Mangiare, Mangiare. OK, I think we should call this "PEAR", for it's something... I can't express it. Noone shalt in the country each these fruits, except me. Keep reading!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Also note that we have seen rumours of The Great Inca Frazer ruling over these lands, and people claim that he is wise. Also, his treasures are uncountable - he can easily kill someone with all those cages where he has the money. However, noone seems to have ever seen him, thus some people franky doubt that Frazer exist.
Wait for the next report soon.
Leader of the Reticuli force,
Sancho".
Eating pears, Solver though to himself: "At least I know that Frazer must exist. All in all, why did a division of Warriors die in their lands? OK, it should be very fine to meet the Great Inca. But wait... I've written him a letter. No response thus far, however. Let's wait, just wait."
Sancho was excited to see whether Frazer really exists, and also he wanted to see what more wonders do the Incans have in their lands. Thus, he leads him people towards the mountains".
So, Quinns, have you also read this? Like it?

Hi Solver.
Nice to see you REALLY back with all sails raised
/bird
Today Solver went hunting. The Spanish forests are rich with food, so it's just the right time to go out and kill some deer. King looked like a madman, running in the woods with his beloved longbow and shooting at everything. He couldn't shoot well, but he loved hunting. This day was very unlucky for Pedro, one of the soldiers, who guard Solver when he goes somewhere. Pedro was looking at the ground, hoping to find an interesting insect. He loved insects, and even though Solver hates them, Pedro was allowed to collect the bugs. However, after this accident Pedro started to hate bugs, as well. So, Solver though he sees a deer and shot at Pedro. The wound in the shoulder was of no danger to life at all, however, it was pretty painful. Pedro wasn't even angry; he understood the curiosity of situation.
At the Castle, Solver told his favourites about the accident, and some of them felt afraid. Looks like it will be a while till Solver goes hunting again, or he will have to hunt alone. "I don't want to be deer", Princess of Spain said.
Solver was so confused that he asked for some food, thus he was very surprised when one of his men came in. "Why are you disturbing me, Juan? What do you want?" Solver said, with his face choking.
"Your Majesty", Juan de Garcia spoke, "Forgive me if I disturb you, but here's a letter from Sancho, leader of our Legions".
"That's pretty interesting, Juan. Read on!"
"Your Majesty, King Solver,
I am happy to inform you that I have interrogated and old Incan man, Gualman is his name. Formerly he lived in Chichen Itza, but he thinks it's too crowdie and dirty, so now he's moving to Copan. He told me that the Great Inca Frazer really exists. Half a year ago, he has visited Chichen Itza, and many saw him. Frazer was guarded by Plumed Archers and Eagle Warriors, who looked fearsome indeed. Noone dear attack or scream, and The Great Inca showed himself to us. But, his mouth was hidden, but it's enough that we saw his eyes. It's hard to forget them, they are so deep grey, and he is the right man to be a Great Inca.
That's what the old Incan man told us. I don't know how much of this is truth, but I can assure you that, if necessary, we will make each and every Incan feel the wrath of our swords, if only you order us to do so.
Remaining yours, Leader of the Reticuli forces.
Sancho."

Bird,
What's that? What made you look in this thread, and why really back? Don't I understand the point of this humour.

Turn sent some hours ago
Oh, BUZZ OFF, Solver of the Running Beer. And while you're at it, get off of your HIGH HORSE!You are beginning to sicken me with your, "...the turn is not ever stuck with me..." (rubbish), and "...move your units..." comments.
Turn to Frazer.
Quinns, pleeeease.
All I say is rubbish (who'd ever doubt)!
I have to write the posts in hurry, if not at home, like it was with the lost one, but that's not the point. The point is that the last 5 days have been very lucky for me, in my non-Apolyton life, and I'm very happy now.
Quinns, feel free to offend me as much as you want to (why have you rarely done this before?). It will make me feel less happy and feel what a stupid jerk I am in the reality.
I like being called the Running Beer.
So, please offend me, while I still want it, and will not feel abused.
And what I meant whith the "move your units", was "move your units more to the southeast, as I've clarified where I currenlty am, and that's the southeast."
Point of the message: please forgive me for my period of being a terrible person.
And now, a roleplaying section follows:
This day shalt be forever written in the anals of Spanish history. It all began when King Solver received another letter from Sancho, leader of the Legion that is exploring the Incan lands.
"Perhaps he has noticed more running beer in those lands", Solver thought, opening the letter. Yes, a rare case - this message was marked exclusive, and thus Solver decided to read it himself. Here it is:
"King Solver of the Spanish, wise and benevolent! (Who knows what word benevolent means?)
With this, I bring good news to you. My people were going across the lke of Iztamhajan, as the Incans call it, when they saw some people forward. It appeared those weren't Incans, as they believe that an evil dragon lives in Iztamhajan, and were afraid to approach the lake. I ordered our brave people to run there as fast as they can, and we saw men of a great tribe, but we don't know who they are. They did greet us in a strange language, and our attempts to speak to them in Spanish or Incan languages failed. The only thing we could understand is that they serve someone calling himself "Quinns", but we don't know who that ruler is.
These people seemed friendly, and offered us to share their meal, what was happily accepted by us.
My personal thoughts are that these people have a high technology and morale. It is exciting for us to wait for the things to continue now.
Yours,
Sancho".
"OK, these people must be Indians. I've heard of Quinns, and he really seems a wise and rich leader". After thinking so, Solver ordered to send the presents of gold to those people. The Spanish hope they will have some technology of these people in exchange."
I feel much better now, after writing this pile of junk.
