Oooohhh just like the wise men from my country with their trycles!

Oooohhh just like the wise men from my country with their trycles!

And now i have a mental image of the King standing in front of a mirror, three tiny wisemen (waving tiny tricycles) sprouting from his chest. One of them smiles and rings the tricycle bell.

THANKS!

[miguel]

Don't bother, and the picture you idealized isn't even new to me, it's on our nation favourite cereal box: Crunchy Trycles!

"Psst..." -The JESTER whispers softly past the fourth wall: "If someone wants to draw a cool sprite of what THEY think the King now looks like, I won't mind at all. And the sprite may even get incorporated into the new visual style somehow, even if the art style clashes with the old style."

EDIT: Whoa, Miguel already provided. Check the previous page to see the results.

[WHAM]

You have the Jester pay the agreed 40 silvers to the seamstress and commend her work with
high praises. She smiles and thanks you for your patronage, and informs you that she must
be on her way, for more work awaits her elsewhere.

As she leaves you get the faintest impession that she was disappointed, somehow.

The Jester seems unusually eager to let in the next audience.

You permit the next audience. As a shadowy figure enters the throne room you can almost feel
the Jester's building excitement.
The man wears a long purple cloack and dons a tall pointed hat.

"Your grace, I am called ZORDON-"

"HE'S A WIZARD!!!" -the Jester squeals in delight, rudely interrupting your guest.

There is an awkward pause.

"Yes, I am a WIZARD, and I have come from far away, from the EASTERN LANDS beyond the
mountains, in search of employment. When I heard that a new KING had arisen in GRIMDARK
I decided to come here and offer my services. I ask for 3 gold per year in salary and will
require a library to be set up for my work. In exchange of these I can offer you my vast
knowledge of spells and magics."

The JESTER seems ready to burst out of excitement.

[NightHawk]

You query as to the specifics of the WIZARD'S skills.

"I am able to cast spells of many kind. With the right preparation I can make a bolt of lightning
strike on command, or I can imbue an object with special powers. Spells are not a thing to be
trifled with, though, and nearly all will require thorough preparation and study before they can
be employed safely or at all. A library to catalogue and sort the relevant knowledge is of
absolute importance if I am to serve you effectively, my King."

You ask where the WIZARD has served before.

"My past I would prefer to keep to myself. Let us just say that I have served myself for well over
a decade and feel that the time has come that I put my abilities to work for someone who truly
has use for my talent."

You can't say that you are fully pleased with the answers you got, but your mind was made already,
and with time you might learn more of this WIZARD.

"Consider yourself hired and the price agreed upon. Consult with the builder's guild as to the
specifics of the library's construction and send them to me." -you command.

ZORDON bows deep, his hat flopping from back to front with the motion.

"I hope to serve you well, my King."

The JESTER does a little happy-dance, pausing only to wave around a small stick which he has
fashioned as his magic wand, and to make zapping noises.

[miguel]

> Say "I hope you do serve me well, Zordon. I am giving you shelter and a well paid job, I expect the very best from you!".

[Adeel]

> Summon Crimson Wizard from Kingdom of Russia and hire him to get your stuff done.
