A Brief Missive for His Oceanic Majesty, King Neptune
Greetings, Milord Neptunus!
Well, this is fun for you, isn't it? Humiliating this foolish old Wizard, eh what?
For those of you Mortals just looking in to this Diary of Magecraft, a few words of explanation are in order:
Two years ago, King Neptune and I made a wager concerning the World Series. The New York Yankees (http://www.yankees.com) were up against those dratted Florida Marlins (http://www.flamarlins.com) at the time, and the deal we made was as follows: were the Marlins to win in seven games, I would be forced to surrender the will of all of Mortalkind, as well as control of all the Planet's oceans, to King Neptune. On the other hand, if the Yanks won, Neptune would have to wear a Yankee cap for a season.
Well, last night, the Yankees were humiliated in their own Stadium for the second consecutive year --- this time, by their longtime hated rivals, those bastards, the Boston Red Sox.
So now, I have to once more bow before Neptune's throne and listen to His Oceanic Majesty gloat in me Wizardly face. I think he loves to see the son of Saemus the Strong suffer!
Master Richard, my Mortal-born alter ego, on the other hand, has more fire in his eyes for these next few hours than ever before..... that fire saying to any who would dare approach him, "Mess with me and die." That is why I must keep his anger in check until such time as this blows over; and I know not when that will be.
So now, O Neptunus Rex, I stand before you, once more humbled. But know you this: 'tis not for nothing that I am called Dragonmaster! The bard the Mortals know as Billy Joel wrote it best:
"I've lived long enough to have learned/The closer you get to the fire, the more you'll get burned....." Methinks Your Majesty can figure the rest of it out from thither.....
Well, anyway, more to scribble next time.
Until then, I remain, as ever,
Fearlessly yours,
Master Blackwolf
